Tallinn day cruise from Helsinki with a guided Old Town highlights tour, Kadriorg Park, and round-trip ferry transfers.
“This was a good tour overall - Tallinn is an incredible city and having the bus take us around was wonderful. The tour guide was very well versed with the history of the area. However, for the price and it being a private tour, I feel that the bus and tour guide could have been more accommodating of our timing and preferences. The bus seemed to be on its own schedule and we had to rush from point to point which kind of defeated the purpose of a private tour.”
Aurora nights, husky yards, icebreakers and archipelago ferries — and the best of each.
