"Mariel Best Guide in tallinn"

I had an absolutely fantastic time on the food tour! Everything was perfectly organized, the food selection was varied, authentic, and delicious, a true journey through Estonian flavors! What made the experience truly unforgettable, though, was the guide, Mariel. She was incredibly kind, professional, and passionate. Her knowledge of Estonian culture, history, and culinary traditions added so much depth to the experience. She shared fascinating insights, answered every question with care, and gave us great tips for the rest of our stay, she makes all the difference :)

"Delicious Tallinn!"

We (couple in our 60's) had a fantastic Telleskivi food tour! Maibel is very knowledgeable about her country's history as well as the food options just outside of the Old Town. We weren't expecting to get to sit down in a couple of restaurants to try samples of traditional dishes. She made the extra effort to get a taxi for us when it was pouring rain between stops. This was an excellent intro to Tallinn! Highly recommended.

"Traditions, new and old"

We had a great tour learning about past and emerging favourite foods of Estonians and eating at various venues. This gave us confidence to go to similar venues ourselves. It was great to explore an area of Tallin we hadn't been to.

"Traditions, new and old"

We really enjoyed our food tour, seeing new areas of Tallinn we hadn't been to before and learning new facts about life for Estonians past to present. We thoroughly recommend this tour.

"Lovely introduction to Estonian Food"

Mariel was friendly and informative. She led us through the old town to the markets and beyond. She fully explained each of the foods we tried. And there was plenty (we actually shared our tastes and there was still left overs for us to take home). We finished back in the old town for dessert. Before she left us she gave us an exhaustive list of places to see and places to eat. Just fabulous.

"Talin food tour"

Mariel was very warm, pleasant, professional, knowledgeable and accommodating tour guide. We had amazing experience with her during our food tour day. We were large group and it was not easy to please us :) But she did an amazing job! Absolutely loved our food tour with Mariel and will definitely recommend her to anyone
