Heli Jürisson

Senior Tour Guide

Heli is blond and bubbly, her vast energy reserve surpassed only by that of the Sun. Perhaps the most hyperactive person in the country, she just keeps going with the fierce tenacity of a Duracell bunny, stopping only to take a power nap every two or three months. The only thing you must be wary of is the extensive amount of sarcastic jokes she employs, the use of which she blames on the many British comedies she grew up with.

When not clumsily running into trees (and rocks, children) on the job, Heli likes to volunteer at different projects, dance and succumb to her incurable Shopaholicism. Right now she is studying television and film at the Baltic Film and Media School, as she needs to learn how to make brainwashing political commercials for when she finally becomes the first female president of Estonia. Her motto is: There are no stupid questions, only stupid answers!

What people say about Heli Jürisson:

Extremely good tour around Tallinn's old town. Brilliant ''performance" of sarcastic but, in fact, completely friendly Heli (14.02)! I would love to participate again :)

It was a very refreshing and fast paced walking tour. We had a great number of people in our tour which made it a bit harder to hear everything, but it worked. Our tour guide was very informative in her description of the buildings and sites we were able to see. Her personal opinions reflected the "true history" of Tallinn! The tour started on time and ended on time which made the rest of our plans go smoothly. Thanks for a great job!

Heli did an amazing job yesterday. I never thought a tour could be so interesting. Thanks very much. One of the highlights of my vacation for sure :)

This may have been the best travel dollars I have ever spent. Heli was superb and made wonderful Tallinn even better with her knowledge, fun personality, obscure facts and entertaining ways.
