Overview of your Tallinn tour:

During this three-hour walking tour we'll discover all the main architecture styles presented in the Old Town of Tallinn and learn about the main stages of Reval/Tallinn's history via its architecture. I would say this is a classical tour in Old Tallinn, and I have done different variations of it since the year of 1990, so I'm intimate with every detail. We'll see all the main architectural attractions of the historical core of Tallinn. We'll relive all the main stages of history of Reval/Tallinn, from the Gothic style era with an arrival of the Danish conquerors (the very first occupation of that stronghold/town) to the Post-Modern 20th century and the first ever period of an independent Estonian State. Bare in mind this tour could be shortened if the weather conditions didn't allow for us to complete it. However, in any case, you should be properly dressed according to the climate on which you visit, and have a good pair of waterproof shoes (no high heels), especially if the forecast is not that bright.

Your Tallinn tour itinerary

· We'll start our tour on Toompea Hill, in front of the Estonian Parliament building and see the main attractions of Lossi Plats (the Castle Square). · Afterwards, we'll walk around the Upper Town to see all 6 panoramic platforms of Toompea. · Then we'll see the legendary spot where the Danish Kingdom obtained its national flag Danebrog. · Next we'll go down to the Lower Town, originally the free Hanseatic Town of Reval. · Later we'll reach the heart of the Medieval Town, the Town Hall Square, to admire several pearls of Medieval architecture. · Therefore, we'll proceed via the shortest street of the City to the longest street of Old Tallinn, continuing our historical tour with more gems of architecture built in different time periods. · We'll then leave Old Tallinn and continue our route along the Kalamaja District. · Finally we will finish our time together in the Rottermanni Quater after a short tour in that District. The itinerary could be customized upon request, aligned to weather conditions.
