What people say about Astra
"Unmissable experience"
This tour is a wonderful taste of Estonian nature, culture, and history. We stopped at the impressive Jägala waterfall, enjoyed a lovely lunch in a historical inn, walked through a beautiful birch forest to the beach and historical fishing village, and explored the charming grounds of a former manor house. The centrepiece of the tour, however, is a walk through the spectacular Viru bog and surrounding forest landscape. We can't recommend this highly enough. The nature is really unique, peaceful, and beautiful. Throughout the day, our local tour guide, Astra, shared historical and scientific insights to help us put the different experiences into context. Astra was really friendly, knowledgeable, and approachable. Thanks so much! The lunch at the inn was delicious and had plenty of vegetarian and vegan options available. The small-group tour format worked really well where we had time to get to know each other as well as our guide. We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who is visiting Tallinn, especially for the first time, and wants to explore outside of the city. I would venture to say that the bog alone is worth it, but every other part of the tour adds up to a wonderfully enriching experience!
"Interesting and informative!"
The tour was a convenient way to see several different places outside of Tallinn that weren’t easy or were impossible to get to by public transport, especially if you’re tight on time and only spending a few days in Estonia. It was great having a knowledgeable local guide driving us around and explaining the history, culture, customs and nature of the area as we went along. Stopping for lunch at the cute wooden thatched restaurant in the fishing villlage was fun. The highlight was the walk along the boardwalk in the peat moss bog. Our guide Astra was lovely, accommodating and happy to answer all kinds of questions about the various things we saw. It’s definitely a tour worth doing.
"Great day in Lahemaa"
I'm so glad I was able to do this tour and see more of Estonia than Tallinn! The bog was a cool experience, seeing wild blueberries, cranberries, and the beautiful views. Lunch at the centuries old restaurant was delicious and filling. Unfortunately the Sagadi Mansion house was closed, but we still were able to walk around the property and enjoy the gardens. If you are thinking of doing this tour, the answer is do it!
