Dear traveller, let me introduce myself. My name is Kadi and I am very happy that you are planning on visiting Estonia. Who am I? My name is Kadi. I am an Estonian and I have been living in Tallinn since 2008 already. Originally I am from a small town of 8, 000 people located in the middle of Estonia. Yes indeed, I can call myself a small town girl. Thus, I also know what life is like outside Tallinn and how different it is from Tallinn. What makes my tours special? I have been a tour guide since 2016. Meeting people from different countries and sharing stories with them is my greatest passion. I will take you to places that mean a lot to me. I think that when you consider something special for yourself then it is easier to talk about it and share it. I always make sure that my tourists can ask questions and receive honest answers. In addition, I am very flexible so when there is something that you really want to see, we will make it happen. I give restaurant, cafe, shop, etc. recommendations. I only recommend places that I like. Why did I become a tour guide? I think that everybody should do what makes them happy and makes them feel good about themselves. As a tour guide I am proud to have the opportunity to teach about my country and people. Although giving tours can be sometimes tiring I truly enjoy my work. Fun facts about me I love languages, cooking and gardening. I have a degree (professional higher education) in accounting and a master's degree in translation. Through my interest and passion for guiding I met my husband who is also a tour guide. I have been told I look like Elsa from Frozen. I am certified to hold tours in the following locations: - Niguliste Church - Estonian Maritime Museum - Fat Margaret Tower - Estonian Maritime Museum - Seaplane Harbour - Tallinn TV Tower - Estonian Open Air Museum. Please note that I do not hold tours only in Tallinn but can offer tours in other locations as well. I cannot hold tours in museums where I do not have a certification (please see my Credentials). However, there are museums which do not require any certification.

Overview of your Tallinn tour

Are you ready to see what the Old Town of Tallinn really has to offer? This is not a regular walking tour but a very special one because we will not only be able to walk on cobble stones and see the architecture from different centuries but also enter several places. We will see how people felt in the Bastion passages during World War II, get closer to God by marvelling unique art and enjoying the view from the tower of St Nicholas Church, and try how good painters of marzipan figures we are in Maiasmokk. Please note! The Bastion passages require entering to narrow underground tunnels where the temperature is 10-12°C (50-55°F). Blankets are available but warm clothes are necessary during the summer months. Children who are younger than 7 years should not enter the passages. Important! This tour is unavailable on Mondays.
