Hello, my name is Jelena. I am a professional tour guide in Tallinn and Estonia. I've been working as tour guide since 2007. Have licenses at different museums in our wonderful capital city Tallinn. History and traveling had always fascinated me. It had been a mystery for me as a child, how people could know so many interesting things, facts and stories about their native countries, that it inspired me to become a tour guide and introduce my native country to the guests. Now it is my pleasure to introduce the country I was born in and live to the guests that arrive here for a day or several days. Estonia and Tallinn can offer you a diverse experience through the nature, people, culture and a rich history of such a small but a cozy country. I can arrange tours for individual travelers, private and bigger groups. Just let me know and I will invent something that would be suitable just for you. My languages are English and Russian, though learning new languages is my other passion. Let's learn and discover new things together. I am a licensed tour guide in Tallinn. Licenses of museums: - Town Hall Museum, - Estonian History Museum, - Tallinn TV-tower, - Kadriorg Arts Museum, - Estonian Maritime Museum, - Seaplane Harbour, - Estonian Open-Air Museum, - Tallinn City Museum, - Niguliste Museum - Estonian Jewish Museum, - Palmse Manor. I cannot meet you right at the cruise port pier. I will meet you at the cruise port gates 500m from the pier, about 10 minutes walking from your ship, with a sign with your name on it.

We will learn the history and life of the Jews in Estonia from the first mentioning up to modern days. Throughout the centuries there lived alot of different nationalities in Tallinn. It used to be a unique city where Jews lived side by side with other nationalities. Though, the community formed only in the 19th century. The Jewish life prospered with construction of the synagogues, foundation of different cultural, political and student societies, opening of the first Jewish School that continues to work novadays. Unfotunately, WWII eliminated all of the heritage. Despite it, the Jewish life restored in peace time and continues to grow today with an active Jewish Community of Estonia.
We will visit: - Beit Bella Synagogue of Tallinn - Jewish Community Centre and Jewish Museum - Konvoi 73 memorial in Battery Prison - Rahumäe Cemetery - Viru and Harju streets If you have any particular places that you'll like to visit, or suggestions to change the itinerary. We can customize it accordingly.
