Day Trips from Tallinn
Local Guides & Small-Groups

"Cured my hangover"

I wasn't actually sure the day of the trip that I'd even be able to go, but once we we reached the first stop at the waterfall, it was all smooth sailing. Sten was very informative and helpful and my girlfriend and I are very grateful that he decided to spend his Christmas chauffeuring and educating strangers.

"Great tour"

Two 19 year olds, really enjoyed this tour our guide was great and definitely would recommend.

"Parfait "

Super journée d’excursion, bonne organisation avec un guide très sympathique et intéressant, fier de faire découvrir les beautés et l’histoire de son pays.

"A great and charming tour to Lahemma natural diversity"

The tour was very interesting.Talking about Estonian history, nature, traditions,...The landscapes were amazing also in autumn. Our guide, Sten, was very kind and warm and the place where we ate was delicious!

"Sten was the best guide one could hope for! "

I absolutely loved it, the whole tour was quite striking and breathtaking. I got some amazing photos out of it too and the tour guide was incredible! Thank you :)

"Estonia‘s nature at its best!"

The tour was wonderful to experience Estonia‘s nature and to see something outside of Tallinn. We were really lucky with the weather so an overall amazing experience, from the hike through the bog, to the old manor and the walk on the beach! Our guide was great and really tried to show us as much as possible as well as share local knowledge with us. A great day trip, lots of fun and also relaxing because the walking part was doable for anyone.

"A wonderful day "

It was a wonderful excursion. The guide was so kind and gentle. It was just me, my husband and him so we cet the chance to spend all day just the three of us. Everything was perfect , I highly recommend to do this trip. It was the best day of our journey.

"Best tour ever !"

It was a truly magical experience that really was a trip of a lifetime! I had such a wonderful experience that will stay with me forever!

"Lahemaa tour "

Great tour and guide Sten! I can highly recommend. A lot of informations about Estonian history, wonderful nature, tasty stop for the lunch. I’m very satisfied and once again many thanks!

"Great Day, easy and interesting"

We enjoyed our day outside of Tallinn with Sten. The sites we saw were interesting and full of natural beauty. We were blessed with a beautiful day, but even if it was rainy this would be fun. Sten was an excellent guide, giving us not only histories of the areas, but also answered all our questions about Estonians in general. Thanks Sten

"Peaceful escape from the city"

Super tour guide, wonderful landscapes, easy trekking route

"Cool trip"

Very good tour! It was a fun experience.

"Super Guide, tolle Tour!"

Sehr schöne Tour, besonders der Nationalpark, sehr Empfehlenswert. Der Guide war witzig und hat sehr interessante Geschichten zum besten gegeben!

"Super fine tour :)"

I really enjoy it!

"Great Guide, Great Experience "

Sten was the best tour guide imaginable, kind, knowledgeable and very funny. The tour stops were well chosen, and I had a great time!

"Nice guide nice tour"

Both beauty in architecture and some 'sadness' in environmental destruction to experience.

"Very good experience!"

Very good day spent in Lahemaa National Park. Sten has been a great guide, funny and full of interesting stories about Estonia and Estonian tradizion!

"A fun packed history and geography lesson in a small package"

A fact filled day in a beautiful part of Estonia. The Wooden swing for grown ups and the gulf coast Rocks closed off a great little tour.

"Very interesting, but no corona protection"

Very interesting tour, very good explanations, however, by simply saying "In private cars, masks are not needed" is really leading to many sick people. if we had known earlier, that no corona protection would be kept we would not have booked.

"Enjoyable day trip"

The guide Kurt was brilliant. He kept the trip engaging with local stories and anecdotes at every spot. Viru bog was superb. However, I feel the coastal part of the trip (fishing village) could've been made a bit more interesting with activities/boating options...etc. Also the Kolga manor house was rather dull.

"Very interesting"

Made 4 stops: waterfall, bog, manor and lunch at a rypical estonian Restaurant. Had enough time for everything, no rush...great. The only thing to improve: tell the people at the manor house that there is a museum. We all were willing to pay for it, but if one does not know it is open, too much time is wasted outside...and museum is really worth it!

"Lahema the biggest national park"

It was our first daytrip tour in Estonia. We were a small group of travellers, so the tour became more friendly and fun. Our guide had a lot of information about the places we stopped, and about the history of Estonia. We had also the chance to pick some fruits in the forest.

"A great step and trip to do to better understand Estonia"

Our guide was amazing, and share a lot of histories. The landscape are amazing to discover

"very interesting tour with many stops, "

Sten is a very good driver, answered all our questions, adapted to our needs, was flexible

"Amazing tourguide and great tour"

We have done a tour from from to Talinn to Riga with tourguide Sten, who was very knowledgable and told us a lot about present and past Estonia and Latvia. He also has great humor and provided a perfect all inclusive daytrip I wouldn't want to have missed.

"Amazing tour "

The itinerary is very well thought-through and, above all, the guide was truly professional, energetic and knowledgeable! Thank you!!!!

"Fantastica Esperienza al Parco di Lahemaa "

Tutto meraviglioso soprattutto grazie alla compagnia di Chris che ci ha guidato con grande professionalità a scoprire la vera Estonia. Consigliatissimo.

"Great trip"

We had a great trip to Lehemaa with guide Chris. We saw some mansions; drove and walked by the seaside; had lunch in a traditional pub with good food; and really enjoyed the naturewalk through the bogs. So, if you have some extra time in Tallinn I really recommend this tour!

"Nice tour"

The tour was overall nice. I really enjoyed the Viru bog and the village walk. Just a few comments: - the tours advertise "Entry to Sagadi Manor Complex" but the manor was being restore and not possible to visit and the guide wasn't even aware of it so this is poor preparation - the tour also advertised "Bottled still water", however at no point during the tour were we offered water. Fortunately I had a small bottle with me, but it wasn't enough. If I had known I would have taken some more water so as not to get dehydrated at the end of the day. - overall, even if the guide was knowledgeable, it seems he didn't prepare his tour. Having worked as a guide myself, I find that disappointing and lacking professionalism.

"Parc national Lahemaa"

Journée inoubliable : beaucoup de sites à voir. L'auberge est typique et agréable. Les accompagnateurs ont été présents et très disponibles. je recommande à TOUS.

"Excellent tour avec un guide au top"

Meilleur rapport qualité prix pour ce tour dans la nature estonienne. Le guide est simplement génial et on passe une excellente journée. Je vous recommande fortement cette agence bien moins chère que la concurrence

"See Estonian nature with real Estonian "

We spent almost whole day in beautiful national park. Kalev was super friendly and answered on all our questions. Thanks him I know better not only information about Lahemaa National Park but also about country and Estonian. Good tour 💪

"Very satisfied"

Very satisfied

"Take this tour!"

Our 9-hour small-group tour took us first to Estonia‘s highest waterfall where we learned a lot about Estonian geography and geology, then to a Swedish manor where we got an intensive course in Estonian history, after which we went for an easy one-mile hike on a boardwalk through a peat bog and learned a lot about flora and fauna. One member of our group even went for a swim in the bog, he found the experience incredible. After a simple but tasty lunch in a rustic inn, we made short walking tours in two historic seaside villages. It sounds intense but it was chill and lots of fun. Our guide Andres did a great job of sharing his wealth of knowledge about Estonia with us. Wear walking shoes.

"Rainy day trip"

Nice tour and nice guide, even if the weather was particularly bad that day! The tour is nice and we had really interesting talks with our tour guide Kurt. Thanks !

"Lahemaa Nationalpark"

You See a very nice landscape- Driving in a van with 8 Person oneway 1 Hour an walking 2,5 Hours in the Moor and on the water. The Lokal guiding is very Friends and know a lot of interesting Stories about the sightseeings. The tipical meal is very Good. Tipp: it is better the Guide say the points and programms bevor Startsignal

"Take this Tour with Sten !"

The tour to Tartu and Viljandi is a must do tour when visiting Estonia. Our guide Sten was knowledgeable and very personable and answered all our questions. Highly recommend !

"An amazing day full of beautiful sights"

The experience exceeded our expectation! We opted for this tour to view some of the sights that would not have been possible otherwise if we took a 4 hour straight drive from Tallinn to Riga. Our driver Sten was very knowledgable and passionate about his job, he explained everything in so much detail. The beautiful views of the forest and of the river were mesmerizing and we would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who would like to travel from Tallinn to Riga or vice versa.

"Highly recommended and money well spent "

An easy going and relaxing day tour to the Lahemaa National park. This was the best option to immerse into the Estonian nature and rural culture. Trips like this leave you memories for life. The trip wouldn't be so interesting without the knowledgeable tour guide Chris.

"Great landscape and Insights in Estonian history "

We had a superb day with a perfect guide. The tour was a fine balanced mix between wonderful places in nature and interesting historical places from medieval to Soviet aera. It gave us an insight in Estonian society and a better feeling for the country and their inhabitants. I can absolutely recommend this tour!

"Great time!"

We had a great time with the other people in the group and Kristjan was a great guide!

"That Special Travellers Way"

As usual, great guide and a great group of fellow travelers. We had a lot of fun. The tour felt personalized to our group (even though I’ve taken the same Lahemaa tour with Travellers in 2019). I liked how flexible it was, we spent a bit more time at places we liked the most. Everything was perfect. It doesn’t feel scripted. It’s like an outing with friends.

"Inoubliable"

Une journée exceptionnelle passée avec un petit groupe de 6 personnes dans le cadre féérique du parc national de Lahemaa. Notre guide, Triin, très compétente, disponible et adorable, nous a conduit toute la journée de cascades en tourbières et de tourbières en bords de mer baltique. La forêt est à couper le souffle! Nos pas ont été accompagnés de récits poignants de l'histoire du pays. Nous avons déjeuné dans une auberge familiale: les plats régionaux nous ont tous conquis.

"Discovery of the national park of lahemaa"

It was a very good experience. The guide Tiirin was very kind. She explains all the history and the culture of Estonia. She answers all the questions. The trip was very complet with the visit of all the touristics sites of the National park. It's also possible to swim in differents place. It was perfect and not expensive!

"Amazing nature tour with friendly and knowledgeable guide!"

Andres was a wonderful guide and knew a lot about Estonian nature, history and culture to share with us. We saw some beautiful nature sights (the Jägala waterfall was fantastic!) and ate a delicious lunch at a traditional Estonian tavern. You should definitely book this tour to see a variety of fun sights outside of Tallinn!

"Fantastic trip!!! Andres is amazing!!"

Our group of four was accommodated with a tour booked in English only the day before. We had a phenomenal day at Jägala Fall, Viru Bog, an old manor house, and a fishing village on the sea. Our tour guide Andres was knowledgeable about all of the stops, with fun folklores and stories. We are so appreciative to Andres and the tour company for helping us to explore Lahemaa National Park!

"Off the tourist trail to Eastern Estonia"

Really enjoyed this off-the-beaten-track tour of eastern Estonia. You really get to see a very different side of the country - a lot of which looks and feels like it is still in the Soviet times. Narva was particularly interesting being so close to Russia, but there are many things to see and we highly appreciate that we were able to tailor our tour as desired. Would highly recommend to others that like a more quirky and unusual experience. Our guide Sten was very good - you could ask him anything and he would know the answer!

"LAHEMAA NATIONAL PARK DAY TOUR"

Nice experience, It permit you to see several places of Lahemaa in 1 day. The best is to swim in a pool during the Bog trail. Sten is a local with a great knwoledge and his approach is very friendly.

"A perfect day"

I really enjoyed the tour to Lahemaa. The programme is well prepared, the guide was a very nice person, explained the background information very well. I liked the lunch place and the bog tour was amaizing. Thank you for it. It was a perfect day during my holiday.

"An interesting tour with history rearing spoken off"

I enjoyed the discovers made during the tour. It was interesting to hear about the Soviet empire that we rarely are taught about in the UK. Sten was very informative and knowledgeable about the history. I enjoyed the food from the restaurant too, tasted good and was very filling! You'll enjoy the tour. My highlights were visiting Sillimae and the ghost town

"Fantastic day!"

We had a wonderful time on our tour around some of the old Soviet sites and beautiful natural attractions of Estonia. Our guide Andres was friendly, flexible and extremely knowledgeable! Would highly recommend this excellent day out!

"Amazing day in Lahemaa NP"

Very vice day, tour and organization. We had our time to spend in all the stops for sightseeing, photos, explanations

"Back in the USSR"

Some places reminded me of former East Germany. Good spots of 'Stalin Culture' Sten was good and entertaining guide, that has a lot of knowledge about every stop we have visited. He explained a lot of Estonia and from the past and today.

"Fantastic Day"

Had a great day out exploring many abandoned places and beautiful landscapes and Andres was a great guide!

"A wonderful Estonian (read: rainy and Nordic) day "

We were welcomed by our great tour guide, Sten, a bit before 10am. We were two to do the tour that day (me and my girlfriend) so that was great as we could really talk with Sten and take our time to discover each place. We started with the mighty ( :) ) Jägala Fall and then visited the Viru bog. There was a bit of rain but it added to the bog experience (even hesitated to jump in one of the lakes from the small platform). The nature there is magnificent ! Sten's explanations about both the waterfall and the bog (formation, role in Estonian culture before and today) were very interesting. Unfortunately, we did not spot any bog monsters that day, but it's probably because it had eaten the previous tourists passing by... We then went to Viitna Kõrts, a nice auberge on the road between Tallinn and Narva where we ate good and hearty Estonian dishes (perfect for the day) and enjoyed glasses of kamajook and kali. The rest of the afternoon was great, finishing with the small and charming fishing village of Altja. We then went back to Tallinn. Sten offered to put some Estonian modern music (pop, folk, etc.) to get to know the art-scene. We took note of some nice songs :) Sten dropped us off before our hotel, which was very nice, and gave us some great places to have dinner or have a drink. We had the time to try some and really enjoyed them !

"Great guide, nice tour."

If you want to escape the city, this is a nice way to do so. My guide was simply great and especially the small hiking tours were fun.

"Amazing Nature Experience at Lahemaa National Park"

We had an amazing day experiencing the breathtaking and unique beauty of the Lahemaa National Park. The highlight for us was the Viru Bog Trail. Hard to find anything similar in the rest of the world. Thanks to Andres for all the information provided in a pleasant and entertaining way. We will be back for sure.

"Better than I thought"

It was very interesting especially because my guide was really fond of nature, hiking & mushrooms. He was available and kind.

"Walking & swimming in the bog!"

An unexpected treat! A big thanks to Marii for keeping me informed about the different tours during my stay in Tallinn. When the opportunity arose to join the Lahemaa tour, I didn't doubt. 4 diverse stops (waterfall, bog walk, manor house & fishing village), a good mix between background info and free time, and one of he highlights of my stay: the walk through one of Lahemaa park bogs. The landscape is really typical (and in some places: truly stunning), and the walk (about 3.5 km) is ideal in length. And because the weather was great, another bonus: swimming in a brandy-colored lake...

"Super Ausfluf in den Nationalpark"

Einfach klasse. Absolut lohnenswert für Naturliebhaber

"Highly reccomend!"

I took this tour back in August 2018 and it was wonderful! We travelled from Tallinn to Riga and it was SUCH a good way to get between the two cities. The tour itself was wonderful and honestly one of the highlights of our trip. Everywhere we stopped was super interesting and not somewhere we would have found on our own (especially as we usually stick to the cities). The trip is planned to perfection and our tour guide was so warm and friendly (I think her name was Trina?). She answered every question that was asked of her and was so informative and helpful. I remember researching lots of different ways to travel between the two cities and being unsure of how this trip would go. I am so glad I booked this as I still vividly remember the day now and could not stop singing its praises when I returned home. I would definitely recommend this to everyone who wants an interesting way to travel between the two cities and really get a feel for the surrounding countryside =)

"Back in the U.S.S.R."

Maybe especially for a Swede, with all the common history, this is a very interesting and nice tour to take - to visit Narva and see some of the historical sites that is so deeply seated in our history. But the tour is also of great interest for all people who are interested in getting a glimpse of what life was like in the U.S.S.R. You will even be able to visit a formerly "secret city" that was not marked on the map!

"Excellent — Exceeded Expectations!"

This day trip deserves more attention! We had an amazing time. Our tour guide, Andres, has a wealth of knowledge on all things Estonia (and Lahemaa, of course), and he shared that knowledge in a way that was light, funny and engaging. We had a great time with Andres! Each stop on the trip offers its own beauty and serenity. We loved the bog — during a cold, rainy day, it had an added mystical feel — and thought the hikes through Estonia's famed forests were lovely. Each hour is different, and you cover a lot of ground (including about six or seven miles by foot) throughout. If you're visiting Tallinn, I would highly recommend making time for this.

"Brilliant "

Definitely recommend doing this tour if you have the time. I was on a short trip to both countries and it was brilliant to see outside of Tallinn and Riga. We had a very wet day, but this didn’t stop the enjoyment. The Forest was a real highlight for me. Very informative and enthusiastic guide made all the difference.

"Nice snowy towns along the route from Tallinn to Riga"

We took a private tour for 4 ladies to travel from Tallinn to Riga. It was very convenience to carry our 4 big luggages and 4 carry on bags door-to-door from our airbnb in Tallinn to airbnb in Riga. We stop at 3 towns with beautiful snow everywhere in Viljandi, Valga & Valka, Cesis. The guide and driver is friendly and did his best to give us information about each place and help us took photos. The cost for 4 persons is €362.

"Great tour, even in winter"

The tour was so much more fun than just taking a bus from Tallinn to Riga. We had an amazing time with our guide Andres who adapted the tour to the group without us even asking. I would highly recommend the tour and especially this guide!

"Great tour"

Great tour! Really fun and tour guide was great

"One day full of beautiful places :)"

This tour (Tallinn - Riga) was really really nice. So happy that in the end there were enough registrations to go! We've seen a lot of beautiful places in Estonia and Latvia that we couldn't have visited by ourselves by public transportation. It was really convenient, just get on the bus and get going. Our guide Andres was really knowledgeable and friendly, he adjusted the tour to the group (i.e. replacing the military museum by a castle). All the places we beautiful in the snow.

"Great way to get to know Estonia "

Learned so much about the country, the history, the geography, the astonishingly rich nature. Andres was a super guide, so lovely to talk to, and a wonderful source of knowledge and stories. Highly recommend this to anyone who loves nature and wants a perfect day trip outside of Tallinn.

"Winter Madness "

A great tour in the wilderness and a real opportunity to visit the coastal regions of Estonia. Our guide Anders was great and especially at lunchtime where all cafés and restaurants seemed closed. In the end he found a great little café with a delicious menu for only €6 : Top

"An overview of nature, believes and history through Lahemaa Park "

Great tour to visit landscape outside Tallinn! We were lucky as our guide was the God of Thunder himself!! Despite the rainny weather we enjoyed this tour, especially the parts through the bog, the forest, along the coast and the waterfall. The tour is shorter than described on the website (7h)

"awesome tour"

Andres is a nice guide, knowledgeable and kind. Although the weather was not that good for the whole trip, but we still had a great time to knew the history and culture of Latvia and Lithuania. I highly recommend those who want to go to Riga from Tallinn and don't want a boring bus time.

"Lovely tour"

Nice nature and, sovietic history tour outside of Tallinn I would definitely recommend to join to discover other side this lovely cou tey

"Fun day trip "

This day trip was fun and easy going. Our guide Andres was prompt, knowledgeable and above all fun. As we made our way from site to site we enjoyed an informative discussion on the local and historical facts about Estonia. For lunch we stopped at a true local hangout which had great food and atmosphere. All in all a great way to spend the day and see the country. I would highly recommend this trip!

"Great "Lahemaa Park" Tour!!"

It was a great exprience! Lahemaa National Park is a beautiful and quiet plaec. We had a lunch at traditionla Estonian restaurant. It was good! Thnaks to Anreas, excellent historical knowlege to share with us...

"Awesome tour of Lahemaa National Park"

My friend and I had a great time visiting the park. It is beautiful and very quiet mid-January. We would highly recommend people visiting Estonia to go on this tour, as it offers a different perspective on the country. Our guide, Andres, was incredibly nice, knowledgeable and engaging. Kudos to him!

"Amazing day"

One of the best tours I have EVER done!! Andres was so informative and interesting! The group was fantastic. Was an absolutely brilliant way to travel from Tallinn to Riga. Will definitely recommend this company!!

"Fun tour into the wilds"

The tour was well worthwhile; a great opportunity to see a bit of Estonia beyond the city. Andres was great - knowledgeable, enthusiastic and honest (happy to discuss Estonia warts and all).

"great places, fast tour"

It is very amazing to see old Soviet places and learning about it, see the Baltic sea from beautiful view. A lot of things :) Only one negative feedback, the tour is too fast. I wish I had more time to savor the moment while visiting the places such us some times to see the sea or walking less spedly the:(

"Exceptional "

A brilliant way to learn about the two countries and transfer between the capitals. Excellent value. Our guide was knowledgeable, passionate about his country. A tremendous experience

"Handsome discovery of Lahemaa national park"

I really appreciated this excursion in Lahemaa national park. Uku was peaceful and we could take time in every places we went so it was a pleasant and relaxing moment. He gave us interesting informations. The fact to be six was really nice as we could take time and know better each other.

"Amazing tour guide!"

Highly recommend the tour! Super down to earth tour guide. Great sight seeing spots along the way

"Estonia Eye Opener"

We didn't know much about Estonia, being Americans and such. To us, it was simply a former Soviet republic that found independence dumped on its lap when the Wall fell. Through JJs personal stories of growing up during these years, along with seeing some of the scars, we got a much better appreciation of the nation and people around us. I feel disappointed for those who travel to Tallinn and only see the Old City. This tour opened our eyes to so much more.

"Lahemaa national park"

I really liked the walk in the park. may be a little longer because it is really beautiful. visiting the village by the sea is also nice because it allows you to see the sea. It was a great day with a friendly guide.

"Authentic estonian experience!"

Wonderful nature and cultural day tour. The guide was very good! So, if you like nature and forests you should definitely take this tour!

"Best way to go from Tallinn to Riga"

The trip was very cool and our guide told us a lot about the history of Estonia and Latvia. Too bad the weather was kinda stormy.

"Engaging and informative "

Uku was extraordinarily knowledgeable and opinionated (in a good way) about all aspects of Estonian life. We were so impressed - there would not be many British young people who could give the equivalent tour! We learnt so much and greatly enjoyed the (blissfully sunny) day. We are trying to remember if Uku took a picture of us on the swing in Viljandi? If so, would be able to send it to us at the email address you have on file? Many thanks for a great day.

"Tallinn to Riga"

Uku was interesting and informative and we learned a great deal from him. He also drove carefully and we always felt safe. We very much enjoyed the day.

"Great way to know Estonia & Latvia with time limit"

Anna, the tour guide is knowledgeable about Estonia & Latvia culture. She was very friendly and provided a great accompany for the trip

"A marvel to see!"

This trip is really worth doing. The Jägala waterfall and the Lahemaa national park are both a beauty for the eyes. We had the chance to have a perfect weather : it snowed a bit the morning, when we were on the road, which permitted to enjoy very delightful landscapes covered with snow. When my group reached a little tower inside the national park, it was just the time of sunset, which we could enjoy watching from the top of the tower. The lunch was also great, permitting to discover local food. Great guide from whom we learnt a lot about Estonian culture, and great co-travelers! A very enjoyable day!

"Super Rundtour"

Die Tour war super. Würde ich jederzeit wiederholen. Wir sind durch die Moore spaziert, haben viele nette Infos zu Land und Leuten bekommen und würden von einem sachkundigen Guide geführt. Auf den holzplanken durch das Moor war es jetzt im Winter recht rutschig. Im Winter also nichts für Leute mit schwachen Nerven oder Gleichgewichtsproblemen.

"Great tour!"

Comfortable minibus, loads of room as only 4 or us, guide was knowledgable and friendly and gave us a good insight into Estonian culture and history. Stops were interesting and varied, unlike some other reviewers I enjoyed the miltary museum mainly because the guide gave us a good explaination of everything.

"Wonderful experience "

Nature paradise beautiful country side amazing guide

"Just perfect"

Excursión que merece la pena. Se visitan diferentes partes del Parque Nacional, se hacen pequeñas rutas y se aprende muchísimo sobre la cultura estonia actual y pasada. Un 10 para nuestro guía, Eugenio (Jevgeni en estonio, difícil de recordar jaja), que fue uno más del grupo, hizo el viaje muy entretenido. Recomendable no llevar comida y hacerla en el restaurante donde nos llevan, comida típica y a muy buen precio. No dudéis en hacerla!!

"Journey to Riga"

It is indeed a great way to travel to Riga. You get to travel to interesting places along the way; and at the same time be able to travel to your next destination (Riga for this matter). I enjoyed visiting our stops and discovering new things about Estonia and Latvia.

"Great experience"

We loved our guide and it was very informative and fun. Would highly recommend!

"Amazing!"

Beautiful cliffs and interesting places!

"An amazing day! "

The guide was really helpful and funny and told us so many things! He knew all of the Estonian stories and he was happy to answer all and every question. The walk in the park and at the beach were lovely and the manor too. It was one of the highlights of our trip so if you like a bit of adventure you need to go!

"A fun day outside Tallinn"

It was nice to travel outside Tallinn and see more of Estonia. We were blessed with a beautiful day. The walk through the Bog in Lahemaa National Park was a bit of a challenge but we thoroughly enjoyed it. Our group was from Germany, Belgium, Hong Kong via Australia and New Zealand. It was a good group. Our guide was informative. However, it would have been nice if he waited till the whole group was together before explaining the area. We missed some of what he was saying.

"Good to spend some time out of the city"

Easy walk in the national park including the bogs because the land is so flat. Anyone can do it so dont hesitate to take this opportunity to get out of the city. The sights are pretty in their own rights but dont expect it to be comparable to places like Austria, Scotland, etc. The guide is very quiet but so am I so I was completely fine with it. But some may not be. Some advice for the guides would be perhaps you can share some of your insights on your country's culture and history throughout that long drive.

"Good way to save time"

The stops were actually quite boring but I cant blame the tour operator for that. I think however that the visit to the military museum can be replaced with something else. There wasnt much to see and most of it wasnt even in english. Something else to be improved is that the guide should bring us to a good photo stop or viewpoint and allow the group 5 to 10 min to take photos (which he rarely did. Good phototaking spots and viewpoints are also never pointed out). There is no point in just walking from the van to the sight and back again on stop. Those who were taking photos had to play catch up and walk quickly to rejoin the group.

"Great day to Lahemaa National Park "

Great day to Lahemaa and thanks to great tour guide, Thank you so much so much JJ, you are terrific!!

"Great day to LAHEMAA NATIONAL PARK "

Great day to Lahemaa and thanks to great tour guide, Thank you so much so much JJ, you are terrific!!

"Awesome!"

Tour guide was awesome, very knowledgeable and helpful. I'd recommend going in fall as the leaves are absolutely beautiful! Loved the tour

"Great autumn tour even if it was a little rain."

Great autumn tour even if it was a little rain.

"Nice tour outside tallinn"

The guide was exelent

"On the road from Tallinn to Riga"

Uku was an informative and engaging guide. We learnt much about the places we visited and also about the history of and issues facing Estonia and Latvia today.

"Very interesting way to get the know Estonia and Latvia"

Our guide was super fun and interesting. He presented Estonian and Latvian history in really interesting ways and he shared with us many fun facts. It is great that the group can’t have more than 8 participants, this way we were always on time, didn’t get lost or anything. Although the weather wasn’t the best (gray sky and drizzle - but what can you expect in October?), we managed to visit all the places and the gray weather didn’t ruin the impression. Amazing tour, and would like to do more of them between other cities.

"What a way to travel. "

So much more enjoyable than sitting in a bus or train and watching the sights go by without stopping. We had an awesome time traveling from Tallinn to Riga. Each stop was the perfect amount of time to get out and stretch our legs, see some awesome sights, and learn more about Estonia and Latvia. Food was great at lunch and Anna was an amazing guide!

"Awesome Day"

The Lahemaa National Park day your was great. It was well run and our guide was very nice, friendly, and knowledgeable. The park is beautiful. Very happy I did this.

"Awesome day"

Definitely the best tour I have ever made. Excellent places mixed with a great insight of history and stories from a local point of view. A great way to travel from one city to the other.

"History told in an interesting, fun way with wonderful humor. "

I really enjoyed the day with line. She has a very sociable, friendly, humorous personality, and has lots to share in an interesting, humorous, fun and easy to remember way. The places we saw were wonderful and the food at the Restaraunt was delicious.

"Great tour"

Taking a normal bus means you miss out of so many cool and interesting places in southern Estonia and northern Latvia. The guide was great and this tour shows you the little places missed by most tourists. A must and better than a bus!

"See The Unique Nature Of Estonia"

Jevgeni picked us up right on time, and despite an ominous weather forecast and rainy morning, he was, as he put it "ready to be optimistic" about our day. Since we'd only landed the night before, and we're quite jetlagged, it was great timing for this kind of tour since talking to someone always makes a trip more fun and keeps you from having that slightly lost and confused feeling that sometimes comes with new places. My husband and I chose a private tour since we only had a week and wanted to maximize our experience. The rain miraculously stopped shortly after seeing Estonia's biggest waterfall, and we arrived at the Viru Bog. The fall is turning the moss various shades of red and orange, and combined with the totally unexpected blue sky it was absolutely beautiful. Jevgeni was incredibly knowledgeable about the biology of the peat bog and got hands on by showing us how peat functions and how it is such a unique formation in the places that it exists on Earth. After that we stopped for a delicious lunch, and headed to more forest where he regaled us with a hilarious rendition of Estonia's "Epic" legend that was written in haste. We learned why hedgehogs are considered bearers of wisdom, and we even got plenty of history lessons along the way. Coming out from the forests to the edge of the Baltic Sea was stunning. It was so peaceful and serene. Pat and I both ended the day feeling like we'd seen things we wouldn't have found on our own. We'll absolutely be recommending this tour to anyone else who wants to visit Estonia!!

"See sides of Estonia you won't find on your own! "

My husband Pat and I opted for the private tour option since we only had a week in Tallinn, and without a rental car, we wanted to make the most of the trip by getting outside the capital for a bit. We took two private tours with Traveller, and neither one disappointed. On this tour, Sten picked us up promptly outside our AirBnB and gave us plenty of options of what we could go and see. Our response was "all of it." For the entire day (we left at 9am and got back around 5:30), we kept seeing one thing of beauty after another. Sten was so so knowledgeable about the history of Estonia, it's Occupation, it's subsequent Independence, what life is like now, and so much more. The highlight for me was climbing around the former limestone quarries and the flooded prison. If you're not afraid of heights, or, as he put it "to go mountain climbing in the country with no mountains", this is a real treat. Also the Soviet plane, now the home to a model airplane club, is surreal as you sit in pilot and Gunner seats and get transported back in time. We didn't only talk about the past, though. We talked hobbies, politics, culture, movies, etc. It really left us feeling like we'd made a friend in Estonia. I will absolutely recommend this company to anyone visiting the country.

"Best way to get from Tallinn to Riga!"

5 passengers; Lamosh was our guide - excellent; Viljandi 1st stop beautiful and fun swing; lunch at Metsis Hotel - delicious, unique & fast; loved the Gauja National Forest and finally, lucky enough to see bobsledders go down the run on ice.

"Fantastic tour!"

This tour with guide, Sten, was our favourite time in Estonia. We learned so much about Estonian people and their history while experiencing the stunning countryside. The bog was definitely our favourite part but the manor, castle and seaside village were also hugely interesting and beautiful. Thanks so much to Sten for making our day very special.

"A beautiful view of Estonian nature, history, culture and wildlife... ❤️🍂"

This tour was truly amazing. A perfect balance of nature trails, manor houses and coastlines with plenty of hidden gems mixed in. I really enjoyed the traditional Estonian lunch too. Our guide was superb with great energy, humour, knowledge and engaging storytelling. Thank you for such a special day!

"Off the beaten track trip"

JJ was a great guide. Knowledgeable and explained on some history as well. He was not in a rush to finish the tour. Lunch was excellent!

"What a brilliant tour!"

We had the best day on this trip. Great history, great guide who was very knowledgeable and friendly. Loved every second! Thank you very much to Sten!

"Very interesting"

I travelled from Tallinn to Riga with this sightseeing bus. It was very good with us being just four people. The guide was amazing, she had so much knowledge and was presenting everything in an interesting way. She read the group very well and gave us options along the way. She even showed us a hidden statue of Lenin lying on the ground and took us blueberry picking in the forest.

"Very good tour"

I want to recommend this tour, I found it really interesting and the guide was great. However, I suggest to shorten the time at the museum! We had to run in the park and in Cesis and it was a pity.

"Great tour and wonderful guide"

The tour was great. The group was small, only 4 people so we had the opportunity to get to know each other and we had a lot of fun. The guide Anna was super nice and explained everything with a big smile on her face.

"You should taste this beautiful nature of Estonia!"

Don’t miss this beautiful nature in Estonia:) i really enjoyed this tour. Our guide is knowledgeable and nice, and I really loved every moment. The path in the park is flat and is not too long walk, so all generations could participate in and enjoy it.

"Wonderful tour! Really sweet guide and amazing forest landscape"

This is definitely one of my best days during my visit to Estonia. The forest scenery is amazing. Love the bogs and scot pines very much! Lina (I hope I spell it right) is a very helpful tour guide who made good arrangements and also being super funny and friendly. Nice trip!

"Excellent"

Our tour guide had a good command of English and it was fun to chat with him. He was very knowledgeable and made sure we were comfortable throughout our journey.

"I went for the bog and went home with a deeper understanding of the Estonian people"

Marju was a great tour guide. She was knowledgeable and shared facts in an interesting and relatable way. I really enjoyed the walk through the bog, which was like nothing I had ever seen before. I tossed a rock onto a pile of rocks at the beach, an Estonian effort to bring good luck. I even managed to convince Marju to reveal the secret location where she picks mushrooms...nah just kidding! I would highly recommend this tour to anyone.

"Awesome "

Great guide. Awesome experience.

"Great!"

Everything was great. Location, guide, organization

"Highly recommended"

The tour was informative and the guide JJ's sense of black humor made the tour all the more fun.

"悠闲的观光团，值得推荐！"

非自驾的话想去国家公园，只有跟团方便了。提前两天在官网预定，收到确认邮件后预付团费（也可以当天支付）。车子很干净。司机兼导游的小哥哥有点羞涩，但是很认真。英文并不好的我们跟着小分队一路走走看看。在塔林有多的时间的话，非常推荐参加这个一日游。

"Great Day out"

Great tour for those who want to venture out and see more of the areas outside Tallin centre. Was not disappointed. Particular highlights were the visit to the Prison Quarry, the waterfall and surprisingly for me, the Russian cargo plane. Marju is a wonderful and knowledgeable guide, giving the group great insight into the places we visited and history. The tour is great value for your money and I highly recommend.

"The perfect Baltic adventure "

Such a perfect way to travel through Estonia and Latvia. We had a private tour and loved every minute. Andres was friendly and extremely knowledgeable which made conversation so easy. Lunch stop meal was one of the best we had our whole trip. Cesis in Latvia was the highlight.

"Gute Wahl um nach Riga zu kommen"

Die Tour ist genau richtig, um die die Hotspots unterwegs zu besuchen. Besonders cool waren die einzelnen Stories zu den Orten. Wäre man nur so an den Orten gewesen, wäre es nicht so interessant gewesen. Würde ich nochmal buchen.

"Great Tour"

Very informative tour with enough interesting stops to break up the day and places to visit that you perhaps would not have done without the tour. Would highly recommend.

"BEST DAY TOUR"

It was really nice. My guide was so kind. She care about people and let us know lot of historical things. It is good to understand about Estonia. The important thing is the landscape was so beautiful. All the places are nice.

"Great relaxing trip"

View, food, guide, all great.

"a perfect trip if you like nature"

During this tour you have the chance to visit Jagala waterfalls, to walk into the forest, to visit a manor and to walk through dark small lakes hiding swamps. It's been a very interesting trip, the part I preferred the most was the path among the lakes, I found it very naturalistically suggestive. There are also some legends related to these places coming from ancient estonian people that concurs in creating a particular atmosphere. Our guide, Jevgeni, was highly qualified, super friendly and very kind with all of us. The fact that this tour is organized with a small number of people it allows to create a confident and cozy atmosphere in the group. You also have the chance to eat some delicious traditional food in a folkloristic tavern. Don't miss this opportunity!

"Convenient"

Worth it for solo travellers as those places would be a pain to get to via public transport. Guide was informative and friendly. Would like a bit more time in Gauja National park

"Very professional guide who volunteered informative background on the national park. "

The day tour was very well run and we had an enjoyable outing with a professional guide who volunteered lots of information on the background and history of the places we visited. He mixed well with all the guests and we shared lots of fun.

"Great trip"

Perfect way to get to riga, got to see a few other sights that we would have flown over. Our guide was awesome lots of info and good chat (cant remember his name but he sings in a choir)

"Best way of travel between the 2"

Excellent guide filled with activities (see their web) in just right timing!

"Tallinn to Riga Two Country Tour "

A fun way to travel between Tallinn and Riga.

"Great day, small group, off the beaten track"

We had a great day that packed a lot in, seeing sights we wouldn’t otherwise have seen, and it worked great as it also took us from our first stop of Tallinn to our second stop of Riga. Definitely worth the time!

"TALLINN–RIGA SIGHTSEEING TOUR BUS"

It was amazing experience and we had interesting historical information about Latvia and Estonia thanks to the knowledge of our guide, Ms. Liine

"highly recommend!"

I enjoyed an interesting walk in Estonia's countryside. The guide provided many details, the restaurant was authentic and the food delicious. The Baltic seaside was perfect! highly recommend!

"Wonderful break from crowds in Tallinn"

I loved getting out of the swarms of your groups in Tallinn and into nature. Our guide was very knowledgeable about so many topics including history and ecology all the while being approachable and funny. The bog, forest, villages and sea shore we visited were stunning. Highly recommend! Only regret was that blueberry season had already past!

"Totally worth it!"

I wanted to explore the countryside of Estonia and Latvia while backpacking through Eastern Europe this year. I took this trip in September where Andres was our tour guide. He has a lot of knowledge about the history of both the countries and kept us interested in knowing about the past, culture, traditions, hopes and dreams of the people. Witnessing the green landscape of countryside beyond the charms of Tallinn/Riga Old Towns is something totally worth doing. Also, the tour happens in small groups so you get better opportunities to bind with people on the journey with you. I would recommend this road trip to anyone who is planning to visit Baltic countries.

"Lahemaa National Park Day Tour "

Wonderful tour to discover the Lahemaa National Park. Thanks to Oliver for appreciate us this National Park at few kilometers from Tallin with his competent explanations. Excellent organization. Michele Italy

"Small Group Fun"

The guide was excellent and the sights most interesting. It could be improved with headsets and the guide giving more of the history and politics of Estonia, especially during the quiet time between stops, we are generally ignorant of Estonia and would appreciate more information.

"Soviet Sights!"

The guide was lovely and gave excellent explanations about the things we saw. Would have liked to be able to go into some of the abandoned apartments to see what Life was like in Soviet times. It was also a big coincidence that I met my high school principal on the same tour on the same day! I graduated from high school in Toronto in 1981 and the former principal is now 85 years old!

"Even enjoyed by my 20 year son who would rather be in a darkened room!"

Our guide's dry humour was perfect and we both thoroughly enjoyed the trip. Particularly liked the bog walk and local food (he had eaten his potato porridge with egg and bacon topping before my food had arrived). Lots of history and local knowledge too.

"All that in just one day ..."

Great guide, excellent driver, good sense of humour, knew her stuff ... Wonderful tour experience with a great variety of stops.

"Amazing experience"

This trip was so worth it, i mean the trip was so nice and all the places we visited were just amazing, our tour guide was really nice and she was pretty good explaining every detail of the trip. I really enjoyed it and i would recommend it a lot.

"Wonderful guide and sights"

This was a highlight on our trip to Estonia, down to our excellent guide Oliver, who also goes by 'Ollie' or 'Hey!' The bear impression was spectacular, and his knowledge of the wildlife made for an interesting listen. Oliver was extremely approachable and provided an easy-going environment for the 8 of us on the trip. Very easy to reach the meeting point at Tallinn, for a prompt departure, where we were driven by car see Jägala Waterfall, Viru bog and the coast, while stopping at an excellent restaurant (and reasonable) for lunch, with traditional Estonian dishes and drinks. I would thoroughly recommend the day trip - reasonable and enjoyable.

"So much fun!"

Anna was such a fabulous tour guide, and the spots we were brought to were incredible. Anna also gave me great advice on vegan restaurants and second-hand clothing shops to visit in Riga, so thank you for that! :)

"SUPERB EXPERIENCE"

A very enjoyable and interesting trip - thanks mainly to our Tour Guide and driver Anna. She was sp friendly, bubbly and knowledgeable and spread a lot of laughter & good cheer throughout the trip. Luckily we had a great group and we bonded very well. Lunch was at a lovely little restaurant - great food and ambience. Anna was with us throughout. The experience of running down the bobsleigh track was memorable. We learnt a lot about the rich culture and history of these countries.

"interesting"

It was very interesting and guide knew everything ja told as lot about eastern Estonia.

"Thoroughly recommended"

Trip was 100% true to description, and know why it rates so highly in reviews.. An excellent way to advance our holiday from Tallinn to Riga. We saw much more of Estonia and Latvia then if we had just caught the straight through bus. We thought the 65Euro price was very good value for money Guide Uku was excellent - very good English and judged perfectly what we might want to know - often guides want to tell you everything they know and more.............. Weather behaved - Uku paced the trip well - never felt rushed and never felt time was just being filled in. Must mention the lunch at Varga at the Hotel whose name I didn't record - fantastic. The nine of us must have tried 6 of the choices and no-one was disappointed - our Caesar salad with duck and wild boar were excellent - and very reasonably priced.

"Small Group "

Stan was an excellent guide who spoke exceptional English and was very knowledgeable. He was keen to assist and at no stage did he rush the tour. The restaurant had nice atmosphere and there was a wide selection of food.

"Great excursion"

Highly recommend this tour. It is a unique opportunity to see the countryside of both countries. Great guide, thank you Andres, for answering all our questions, ànd showing us around. Delicious lunch, visit to Cesis castle, bobslay track, little hike in a forest. Everything was perfect!

"The true marriage between Estonia/Riga"

Andres did an amazing job, picking us up in Tallinn, showed us Viljandi, the history of Estonian folk, history, and sports, Riga's national park, and the Latvian luge practice facility.

"A big day out but a great day out!"

A perfect way to get from A to B (Tallinn to Riga) and see some interesting locations along the way.

"A Funny and Informative Day"

We had a great time on our tour from Tallinn to Riga. The guide was intelligent and very funny. He made a great trip very memorable.

"Great tour from Riga !"

I had a very nice day despunte the Rain. Cool explanations, nice seightseeings. The perfect tour if you have only one day and want to see the best of Lahemaa national Park.

"Brilliant "

Great tour with a great guide

"So glad I chose to do it!"

This is a great tour, Andres our tour guide was personable, had these wonderful tidbits about nature, history etc. I also 7 other wonderful people on the tour from various countries. Walking in the bog, snacking on wild blueberries, cranberries! It was good communing with nature, this was followed by a hike in the pine forest, which opened onto a beach , walk along the beach to a fishing village and finally on an Estonian village swing. All and all a wonderful tour. Highly recommend it.

" Lahemaa National Park Day Tour"

We had absolutely great day trip and enjoyed everything, Thanks a lot Andres!

"Tallinn tours"

Great day out.

"Amazing! "

Very nice tour with Jevgeni, the parc was amazing and he gave us as much information as we wanted. Definetelty a tour to make if you stay in Tallinn!

"Interesting tour from Tallinn to Riga"

Friendly and knowledgeable tour guide. Late lunch at 2:30-3pm Earlier lunch arrangement would be better.

"Loved it!"

Marju was a wonderful tour guide and she answered all my questions during our bus rides between the stops. Loved seeing the sunken prison and the old Soviet plane - so cool! Highly recommend the tour to see outside the city for a day.

"Estonia truely yours :)"

Appreciate the pur air and its wild nature is an integral part of the program for all travellers who put their invisible footprint in the Baltic countries. The Lahemaa National Park offers one of the most appropriate frameworks for ! Well-versed and knowledgeable, our Traveller's guide Olivier knows how to make an intermediation between these bogs, moss, blueberries and mushrooms growing in these forests and us, passengers. Our guide shared with us the generous and sober charms of Estonia. Furthermore, Traveller's backoffice team is nice and flexible :) THE tour to do !

"Fantastic trip to Lahemaa National Park with excellent guide "

A really great day trip from Tallinn. A must see for anybody in Estonia for a few days. The Viru bog is beautiful, make sure to bring swimming attire for the chance to swim in a bog pond, truly memorable. Our guide Gregor was fantastic and really informative and passionate about showing Estonia, he answered all my questions.

"excellent!"

easy but interesting trip! our guide JJ is vey nice!

"A lot of Sights"

This was a fast paced day with a lot to see!! Definitely worth the money!

"Great tour"

You really have to go to Lahemma. Theres really only one thing to do here, and that thing is a must see; theres an hour walk on a boardwalk through the heart of the bog, and its great, since a bog is such a weird environment. It feels bad to drive an hour, do an hour of an activity, and drive back, and they don't; they really do a good job of making it into a real days worth of activity.

"Another side of Estonia!"

I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to explore more than just the old town of Tallinn and who is interested in the post Soviet space if Estonia. Our host Hannes was extremely knowledgeable and approachable both in respect of the tour itself and life in current Estonia. We covered a lot of ground from waterfalls to ex Soviet nuclear facilities to an authentic Russian meal to an old antonov transport plane now the headquarters of a model aircraft club. I'm only sorry that I missed the Narva trip but I intend to book that in advance when I next visit this fascinating country. Cheers Hannes and cheers to traveller tours!

"Great trip"

Great way to get from Tallinn to Riga. I really enjoyed seeing more of Estonia and Latvia. Sten was a wonderful tour guide.

"Beautiful landscapes, great guide, too expensive "

The tour was an amazing day; Oliver was a very friendly and open guide, readily answering questions and sharing experiences. The nature is beautiful, much more than I expected. However, we still have to pay for lunch, and don’t go into the manor; for this reason, I found it too expensive

"A nice day in nature"

The guide was very nice and professional. He took us to the waterfall and forest, and told us about many stories about the bog and mushrooms and Estonians. That was more than expecatation.

"Excellent way to discover the estonian nature"

I definitely enjoyed my tour there and Oliver, our guide, was really professional and always smiling. I would definitely join this company again.

"Good first impressions"

Unfortunately I did not have a lot of time to travel through Estonia and Latvia, so this was the perfect way to get a first impression of the two countries. The guide with his local knowledge and stories made the trip even more enjoyable and although traveling on a bus for 12 hours is exhausting, it really did not feel too long. I can thoroughly recommend this trip!

"Great tour, great guide"

The tour was most interesting, Provided as with a clear understanding of the natural and human history of the places we visit. The guide was very knowledgeable and has very good communications skills

"Wonderful day in the rain!"

Excellent way to transition from Tallinn to Riga. Liine gave lots of insight along the way, which made the trip enjoyable and informative. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this trip to anyone.

"A slice of natural Estonia"

Lahemaa is definitely an interesting option if you're looking to do a day trip out of Tallinn. The trip was a nice overview of the Estonian countryside and geography outside of the capital. The bogs and beaches were the most interesting parts of the tour, and I wish we could have seen more of the park's natural features. The greatest value I took from the trip was Uku's commentary. He provided some fantastic insights on Estonian history and culture, and it was fascinating to hear some of his family's experience during and after the Soviet era.

"amazing nature and interesting stories"

I loved to be inside the nature. The forest, bogs, fall, sea all things were I never seen before and they made me peaceful. and I also liked the history guide explained to us, and of course the food too. I enjoyed a lot for whole day and I absolutely recommend this tour.

"The best way to go from Tallinn to Riga "

A full of beautiful pictures and places day. Our guide-driver Krislin made our day more easier.

"Excellent!!!"

fantastic experience. I wasn't feeling well at all and the prospect of a 12 hour trip wasn't ideal, but the lovely Latvian tour leader made it perfect. The stops are frequent and interesting. You see HEAPS. Walks in national forests, old ruins, beautiful villages and the AMAZING bobsleigh track, among others. 10/10

"Awesome tour!!! "

Great tour - so many interesting places and stops!! Mikelis was so entertaining and chatty and shared so many interesting stories - it was great!!

"More interesting than just going by bus"

Pleasant trip with good guide though stops were not massively interesting. A flavour however of the countries and I enjoyed seeing the bobsled track.

"Worthwhile trip"

Great chance to get out of Tallinn and see some of the big that Estonia is famous for. The highlight was a wonderful swim in a bit lake and the huge village swing. Great guide.

"Driving from little Scandinavia to the people with six toes"

We (4 friends from Austria) had an ambitious goal: to see as much as possible in the short time of our vacation. Not just visiting the classic tourist places, we also wanted to learn more about the countries and the people who live there. This tour has more than exceeded our expectations. We spent a great day together with our awesome guide and the nice group we were with. We got our hearts racing at the huge medieval swing, climbed a true Latvian 'mountain', walked down the bobsleigh track, saw a lot of new places, took hundreds of pictures and learned about the history of Estonia and Latvia. Now we also know how to make friends with the people with just one sentence! We would (and will) definitely recommend this tour to everyone! Thank you so much!

"Excellent Guide, Perfect Tour"

The guide, Oliver, is excellent. He is humour, knowledgeable, friendly and taking good care of us. The tour is perfect, especially with the walk in bog under a lovely weather.

"Great trip!!"

Wonderful experience and excellent tour guide.

"Perfect way for traveling from Tallinn to Riga"

I would like to say that this expirience was amazing. We learned a lot from Estonia country history, how they live now. Our tour guide has a lot of knowledge to share, which was really appreciated. Would definitely recommend to everyone who wants to see something more, not just a capital cities.

"great tour"

Each location are beautiful, but walk around and photo time is a bit rush. Tour guide explanation are very detail (although I only got it around 60% understanding)

"Superb"

It was fantastic day spent with friendly people and in wonderful environment. Our guide Elina was super, fun, very talktive (in a good way) and helpful. That was enough time for every stop and visit.

"Amazing tour, definitely recommend!"

Exciting day of travel between Tallinn and Riga. I am unable to remember all of the names of the locations, but enjoyed Cesis and the 1980s skeleton run track greatly! My guide Hannes was fantastic and made a real effort to bring the group together. Would definitely recommend!

"Fantastic day for sightseeing & education "

Mikel’s passion for his heritage makes this day long trip fly by. He conveys realness to events of the Estonian & Latvian history over centuries. He shared a very patriotic song too. Excellent job!

"Awesome guide Anna"

The stops are all really good

"Great fun way to get to Riga"

The guide Lomas made the day. He worked so hard to explain, entertain, and generally make sure that all things were good for the party. Also an excellent driver. Hard to believe he's the same age as my son. The tour has a good route, stopping off at ruined castles and old towns, testing a communal Estonian swing, a blueberry hunt in the beautiful Latvian national park, and the old Soviet bobsleigh track. It was a really good day

"Baltic Bee-Boppin"

This was such a great means of traveling from location to location. We often miss the views while up in the clouds, but this mode of transport with interesting stops along the way and with our knowledgeable guide made for a fantastic experience. Thanks!

"Sten the Man!"

I had a great time on the Tallinn-Riga bus tour. Stops included a couple castles, a cave, a national park, a bobsled track, and lunch at a really fantastic restaurant. Sten was a welcoming and funny guide. This is a great way to see parts of Estonia and Latvia that you will miss if you only hit the major cities--I highly recommend it!

"Great nature and great guide"

First of all, the bog in the lahemaa park is a must-see for every tourist in Tallin or Estonia in general. The bog is very unique and the trail is beautiful. We also thought the other stops were a nice addition! The beach was actualy really nice and calming and I wished I could've sit there for like 30 minutes just watching the shore. Though the trip on it's own was great, our guide was maybe even greater! Ollie (Oliver) was very enthousiastic and told us many things about the nature we didn't know. He let us try edible berries and answered all our questions about Estonia in general. He is an amazing guide! Would definitely recommend this trip!

"A must-go tour if you're in Tallinn"

I took the Lahemaa National Park Day Tour which is definitely a highlight in my trip in Tallinn. I would like to give my special thanks to my guide Hannes. He is knowledgeable about local, curious in history and respectful to nature. Going on a tour with him is like a vivid biology class back to school. Thank you all for such a well-arranged tour! I would definitely recommend it to my friends who would visit Tallinn in the future.

"Educational and exciting tour"

The tour was up to only 8 people so, even though we just met, the atmosphere was close and very comfortable. Our guide was kind and funny that I enjoyed listening to him a lot. He told us about the history of Estonia and the relationship they had with the soviet. Not only did I enjoy the sightseeing but also the conversation with the local guide and it definitely is an unforgettable memory for me!

"Très bonne excursion"

J'ai passé une excellente journée, super guide, beau paysage, bon repas. Je recommande

"Great day out at Lahemaa National Park"

It's well worth doing this tour - I felt I got a real insight into life in Estonia. Our guide Ollie was friendly, helpful and very informative. He took us to beautiful places and we got to see the wonderful Estonian countryside.

"Amazing tour with amazing guide!"

Probably the best way to travel from Tallinn to Riga. Guide was on time, van was comfortable. Our guide Mikelis was friendly, attentive and knowledgable. Learnt a lot on Baltic's history and culture through the journey. Highly recommend this tour!

"Great way to see something when travelling between Tallinn and Riga "

Well organised and very motivated guide

"Truly great way to travel by seeing sights off the beaten path"

Enjoyed the company of Hannes very much. He made the trip enjoyable, relaxing and very informative. I would strongly recommend this option to travel between the cities and enjoy the experience.

"To do list"

Really really nice tour !! Lucky that the weather was perfect but might be also beautiful when is not !! Nature in Estonia is so nice and it wasnt crowded at all as the old town :) a must to do list

"Interesting sites, too much driving time"

The sites we went to were interesting and unexpected. It was nice to get outside and out of the city. It was a bit too much time squished into a minivan between the sites. Our group was very quiet and not chatty, so maybe if there had been more guided conversation while driving it would have felt less awkward/boring.

"Best Tour Ever"

This was one of the BEST tours I've ever been on. The knowledge of our guide Lomas, 21, was amazing! He made the day fun and relaxing with plenty of interesting stories. I highly recommend booking this tour! You will gain more insight into the Estonian and Latvian countries from a local's perspective.

"Fabulous tour guide"

The tour was well thought out and executed. Our guide, Ellie, was informative, an excellent driver and accommodated the needs of 3 generations.

"Glad we had the chance to get out of the city and see some real rural living"

Friendly, informative tour guide. Good day trip for all, including those with young children. Very accommodating when our oldest daughter felt car sick. Beautiful scenery along the way. National Park and view from Bob Sleigh track were stunning. We were also able to pick wild berries and drink from the river. Food at the Lodge stop was good, although the stuffed animals were a bit off putting for me. Local village stops and military museum allowed us to ride on a wooden courting swing and kids to dress up in military get-up. Only slight negative was that our tour left a little later than planned, which meant we arrived quite late at night into Riga; so just bear this in mind for your evening dining.

"Stunning nature in Estonia"

We were taken in a very small group to Laheema reserve, all stops were leisurely. Our guide Oliver was brilliant and really made the day special. Our lunch stop was at a lovely local place and the food was great. It was a glorious day in the sunshine!

"Very informative with enthiusiastic tour guide :)"

We had Katrina who was really interested in the fauna and the history of Estonia in general. We all learned a lot and enjoyed ourselves. It was a very pleasant day and we were made to feel very comfortable. Katrina was really accomodating and asked us if we needed anything.

"Beautiful introduction to Estonian nature"

The tour was well organised and our guide was very informative. We went to the places around the national park where it is difficult to get without a car. I recommend the tour to everyone to find out about Estonian history and its nature.

"Good way to travel"

I enjoyed the tour and would recommend it to anyone who wants to travel, as opposed to jumping from one place to the other. Much better and in all ways more entertainining than just seeing the pine forests adjacent to the highway from a normal bus! And very well organized, by the way. We arrived in Riga as scheduled.

"Very Nice "

It was a very great day with very nice people from all around the world. We saw a lot in just one day !! Everything was so lovely, beautiful. The timing was perfect, we were not running. The guide Reliika was lovely, she spoke a lot about the country, history, economy, landscape... She was very nice.

"Quality trip"

We had a great experience travelling from Tallinn to Riga. Our guide Lomaš was very knowledgeable and funny. Thanks again!

"Unique experiences that would be hard to have without a guide"

This tour gave us ample time at several unique sites (cliffs, manor houses, a traditional fishermen's village, a waterfall, and a bog boardwalk) that would have been hard to see without a car and significant knowledge of the area.

"Informative tour. "

We really enjoyed this tour from Tallinn to Riga. There were 7 of us in the van, and our guide, Katrin, was excellent. The trip was very interesting, informative and all done in a relaxed atmosphere. We usually do things on our own, since we hate “tour buses” but this was completely different and I would highly recommend it. We would not have captured the depth of the historical and social background of the places we visited if we had done it on our own. It was great to hear a local person’s perspective about the history and culture of each area, and it was also eye-opening to hear first-hand experiences of Katrin’s family.

"Great way to see the sights"

This was a small group minibus trip. Stopped at various points where Stan, our driver/ guide gave us the history and insights into the past. The castle ruins at Viljandi were impressive. The keeking was fun! (Giant swing!) . The military museum was very interesting with lots of old tanks, vehicles and Soviet helicopter. A walk through the Gauja park forest and sandstone cliffs was really lovely. A short stop at Cesis to see the castle and beautiful grounds. Final stop at the Bobsleigh track in Sigulda. Amazing track where you can imagine the speeds attained by the contestants. A long day but Stan was a great driver and very knowledgeable.

"A very good way to discovered Estonian history"

At first, we wanted to do another tour but lack of availability we, a little disappointed, took the cliff tour. We were pleasantly surprised by the tour thanks to our very good guide. We loved our day. In addition, our guide was not only very professional and friendly but also an excellent driver. Thank you very much for her.

"Beautiful scenery, interesting places with a great guide"

I went on this trip with my son 11 years old not really expecing anything specific but "something interesting". As it turned out it was even far better than I expected. We got to see some really interesting places and a lot of beautiful sceneries. That itself would have been well worth the cost of the tour. But in addition our guide Robert was fantastic, he gave us a great history lesson about Estonia and created an exciting context to all we saw (and much more...). So both of us 49 and 11 years respectively were really satisfied with this tour and can recommend it to anyone no matter of age or interests!

"Lahemaa August 2019"

Really amazing!

"Beautifull day in Lahemaa Park"

It was a wonderful tour at the national park, Our tour guide Hannes was friendly and fun. We learned a lot about the landscape and Estonian history. Loved everything about this trip. Thank you!

"Nice experience in Lahemaa"

Very nice tour with Katharina. She gave us a lot of informations and it was very pleasant to discuss with her. A tour that gives a good overview of the national park

"Beautiful scenery with knowledgeable guide"

We had a great tour through some of the best vistas in the park. Our tour guide provided us with a thorough overview of Estonian history and culture, yet knew a bit less about the nature. Nevertheless, we really enjoyed the tour and the casual atmosphere.

"Tallinn Riga"

Le temps est passé très vite. Notre guide était très sympathique et les visites interessantes. U très bon moyen de relier les deux capitales sans perdre de temps

"To do in Estonia ;)"

I really enjoyed this day trip to the National Park. The driver/guide drove very well (I'm often carsick so it is important). Then, the trip was well constructed the longest time in the morning so we can sleep and then we walked on the park. The bog is so beautiful and the view from the tower so stunning :) we also had the chance to taste traditional Estonian food : potato mash with bacon. I really recommend this trip !

"A great way to get to Riga"

This was a wonderful way to see both Estonia and Latvia Great small group with an excellent guide Catherine who was warm, welcoming and extremely knowledgeable Good lunch stop I didn’t like the war museum and would have preferred more time in Cesis Doing the Riga to Vilinius trip today

"An Excellent Sightseeing Tour from Tallinn to Riga"

Our tour guide, Daumants, was very professional, and knowledgeable. We learned a lot of historical information about the five sights and their significance in the Estonia and Latvia history. Thank you! We will highly recommend this tour to friends if they come to visit the Baltic states.

"NOT JUST A TOUR!!"

Our tour was amazing, thank to Lomas, our guide. We visited small medieval and historically meaningful towns and the bigger natural park of the Baltics (a green paradise). We also enjoyed the visit to Sigulda's bob-sleigh park. All of this, listening to Estonian music during the trip, to get perfectly in the mood. Without Lomas and Traveller we would never lived such an adventure travelling from Tallinn to Riga.

"Awesome natural spot"

The views in the Viru bog are breathtaking.

"Best tour, great tour guide."

Such a great trip. Very cool to see towns and places that I would not have normally been able to see. I was surprised at how much we were able to see and do in 1 day without feeling rushed. Lomas was great and able to answer all of my random questions about Estonia and Latvia while driving from stop to stop.

"See the country!"

Overall my friend and I enjoyed this tour as a way to see more than just the capital cities. We really liked stopping in Viljandi and the castle ruins there. We did not enjoy the prolonged stop at the Estonian war museum- all in Estonian without English- while waiting for our lunch (not ordered ahead of time, so no tables available). We didn't eat lunch until around 2:30/3pm so bring snacks....! We really enjoyed the stop at Gaujas national park in Latvia despite the downpour during our brief hike. We enjoyed the stop in Cesis including some time for a drink- we should've gotten a snack as well. We also stopped at a bobsled run before finally reaching Riga- it offered beautiful views but could've been skipped to reach Riga before 9:45pm.

"Trust me I‘m a tour guide "

We had a fantastic tour with Andres in the Lahemaa National Park. Andres welcomed us with the following statement on his cap: Trust me I‘m a Tour Guide ;) He really was a great tour guide, knows everything about the nature & culture and had fun stories to tell.

"really nice experience"

good to recomend other people. It was what we expected.

"An interesting road trip from Tallinn to Riga"

There were 8 of us and our tour guide/driver. We stopped off at several places en route. The brewery where we stopped for lunch was great. We also did a short hike in a National Park and saw a typical small town in Latvia amongst other stops. Out tour guide was a very engaging pleasant and knowledgable young man.

"It's worth it!"

Robert was a great, authentic Guide with a huge history knowledge, always open for discussions and helpful in any situations.

"Driving from Tallinn to Riga "

It was a lovely way to travel from Tallinn to Riga and learn more about the country. The guide was great.

"fantastic day knowing land and history Estonia"

It was a very interesting day knowing the nature, cliffs, forests, landscape and history of Estonia and having a great time with our excellent guide Katrin T

"Caught in the rain, still loved it"

The guide picks you up from the center of Tallinn and drops you back in the center of Riga.. telling you incredible stories of his grandfather in the second world war as he walks you through museum tours and the country side hike. Fabulous time.

"Brilliant trip"

An interesting overview of the Estonian nature, history and food. We really enjoyed taking picture in the forest and in the bog, landscapes were stunning. Oliver (our guide) brought us to a typical tavern where we tasted traditional food. He was also kind enough to answer every question we asked about Estonia. The tour lasted 9h, hiking was quite easy and pleasant. Definitely recommended!

"Wonderful"

we loved the tour - very interesting, fun and relaxing. Thanks so much, for dropping us up at our place to stay there!

"Great"

"Great trip!"

We enjoyed it very much, everything was well prepared. Lunch could be ordered upfront and it was very delicious. Also the car was pretty comfortable.

"Great trip!"

We enjoyed it very much, everything was well prepared. Lunch could be ordered upfront and it was very delicious. Also the car was pretty comfortable.

"What a personality!"

Our 12-hour excursion from Tallinn to Riga was exceptional. Our leader/driver Laura had a fabulous personality and was very knowledgeable. She also comfortably accommodated all 8 people in the group. When she didn’t know an answer she found out before leaving that stop. I couldn’t think of a better way to travel between Estonia and Latvia. Thank you!

"The coolest tour"

Great experience! Our guide was prepared, funny and gave us the best tour! A unique experience that everybody should live! Highly recommended!

"Interesting"

Very Good service.We visited some interesting places in our way.We har a little bad luck with the wheather but it was Nice anyway.

"A fun day in the countryside "

A great tour around the Natuonal Park. Hannes was an excellent guide with lots of knowledge and a great sense of humour. The day was well organised with plenty of places to visit. Walking in the bog was the highlight.

"Beautiful sightseeing, captivating story telling, & great company``"

I was lucky to be in a group of two guides - Anna and Oliver, who made a really great team - informative, entertaining, caring and both very nice. Although with all strangers, it felt like a road trip with own friends. It was a great experience.

"Wonderful tour."

It's a long day and only stop once for food/drink. So I recommend bring snack and water with you. Great day.

"Well worth it!"

It was a great alternative way of traveling from Tallinn to Riga. It was fun, informative and we had the best tour guide, Lena. She told us about the way of life in Estonia, took us to various interesting sites off the beaten track and with a delicious lunch stop. The 12 hours flew by. I would highly recommend it.

"A Full Day of Nature Walks!"

We wanted to spend a day at Lahemaa but didnt know we would need an international drivers license to rent a car. Traveller's tour to the rescue! We booked this tour hoping it would give us a full day in nature, hiking, seeing the water and breathing in the fresh air and it did. Our guide Hannes obviously cared about history and we were glad to learn from him. Lots of walking on this one but easy flat and beach walking.

"A day in the countryside."

It is what one would expect from a National Park tour. A walk in the woods, exploring the natural beauty of Estonia. Also, the manor visit was interesting since it added a little element of history within the tour. The guide was friendly and knowledgeable. He tried his very best to make everybody welcomed and gave ample information.

"Wonderful "

It was good to be able to be with wonderful scenery The guide was bright and friendly

"Moss & Berry"

Thanks to the experienced nice guide, I and my wife could touch the Estonian nature and enjoyed it, even though changeable weather. In the nature park, we understood the relationship between the moss and the blue berry. Whenever I plant a tree of blue berry, I will remember the Lahemaa National Park.

"Wonderful day out"

What an informative and beautiful day. The walk through the bog and fishing village were real highlights. Lunch was fun in a traditional restaurant. Our guide!s knowledge of the history of the area and Estonia in general was mind blowing. All in all a great day out apart from many many mosquitoes near the coast.

"Really nice with enthousiast guide"

Very interesting excursion. Well organized. Very kind and knowledgeable guide.

"A great tour, absolutely recommended!"

We liked the tour very much because we got to places where we surely wouldn't have gone on our own. Our guide Anna did a great job both with driving, both with guiding us giving lots of information and being always ready to answer any questions. The group size was perfect, we were not too many and it was interesting to get to know some people from different countries. The best of the stops was the nature walk in Gauja National Park, incredibly beautiful even if the weather did not really cooperate. We are really happy that we toke this sightseeing transfer tour instead of a boring line bus trip and we absolutely recommend doing it!

"Bringing the past to life! "

This was a really excellent and informative tour. It was a beautiful day and the scenery was equally amazing. From the 19th Century Bunker to the beach at Paldiski and the grounds at Padise Monastery, our guide Marju was full of energy and very knowledgeable about everything. She brought the past to life and together with Oliver, they were very friendly and contributed towards a very enjoyable day. The stop at the roadside cafe was good fun, allowing us all to get to know each other a bit more. The meatloaf was very tasty too! We took a walk at a park where the grounds were very impressive and filled with greenery. Our trip to the Rummu Quarry was a highlight with stunning views of a unique area. The chance to sit in a Soviet Cargo Plane was something I will never forget. Thank you Marju, Oliver and Traveller Tours for an unforgettable experience.

"Discovering the unknown"

We had a very nice experience traveling from Tallin ti Riga with Eli. She made us discover places in Estonia and Latvia that we wouldn't have seen. Eli was super

"Curious about Soviet era? This is the tour for you"

The highlights were two Soviet-related stops on the tour. First was an abandoned military bunker near the coast. We saw the bunker and then headed inside. It was much larger/longer than expected and we saw where the missile launchers had been. Another stop was an abandoned limestone quarry. After it was mined, there was no need to continue to pump out water, and so it naturally filled up-flooding low-lying buildings. Now that area is used as a local swimming quarry--swimming and snorkeling in clear water around the buildings that had been flooded. Quite unusual. Of course the views along the coastal cliffs were also lovely to see.

"Best transfer between Cities "

This is an excellent way to travel between the two Cities. Easy for travellers and incredibly interesting and informative. Polite, thoughtful and easygoing guides. Well worth the money.

"Nice Alternative"

Your options from Talinn to Riga are limited and rather than take a long train ride or a dreaded airport visit, I decided to take a Traveller tour van and see some more of the countryside. Karolis, our guide, was fantastic, he was very knowledgeable, and an overall good guy who had a passion for the area. He told stories with heart that were more than just about the sights, but about the people and the emotional history behind them. The van was comfortable, the group I was with was great. Bathroom breaks were not an issue as you're only driving for max two hours at a time. Toward the end of the almost 12-hour excursion, I was more than ready to arrive at my hotel, and some of the stops (the military museum) were a bit dull, to be honest, but again Karolis' stories made them interesting. Truth be told there isn't a whole lot to see on the route, but at least you can say you checked it out. Overall, as a single traveler, I would definitely recommend.

"Day at the coast"

Lovely to venture beyond Tallinn to see a little of the Estonian Countryside and the west coast. We stopped at Nova Beach and Spitham Point - very pleasant. Saw Haspsalu castle and the railway station, but was disappointed we had no free time for a wander around Haapsalu on our own - especially as weather was beautiful.

"a good day travelling"

It was a different way to travel. We did it with Robert, a very good driver, quiet, and with very good explanations. We did four stops in the journey (including time for lunch).

"Loved my tour"

Just simply stress free & relaxing way from Tallinn to Riga and get to see what's in between. Thanks

"Great day out with interesting and fun guide "

Really enjoyed this day trip. Our guide Hannes was informative and also made the day lots of fun as well. Loved everything about this trip. We were a bit sceptical about the lack of choice for lunch but this ended up being a highlight of the day as food was great and well priced. We learned so much about Estonian history and also experienced the beautiful countryside.

"Good tour with not a lot of driving"

I booked this tour after doing the Riga to Tallinn Tour with TravellerTours. Both were fantastic, this one was nice because you spent more time at the sights than in the van, due to the cliffs being so close to Tallinn. I'm terrible with names, so I forget our guide's name, but he was friendly and knowledgeable and made for a good trip. The lunch in Paldiski was also quite good, get the meat dumplings.

"a very informative tour through countryside and history"

This tour has definitely been the best choice to travel vom Tallinn to Riga. Our guide gave us lots of Information about the Baltics in current days as well as their previous and later history. The time for the visit of the military museum in Valga could have been a little bit longer, but I understand that otherwise we would not have arrived in Riga at a reasonable time. I can definitely recommended this tour to everyone who wants to travel from Tallinn to Riga not the fastest, but the most impressive way.

"Great tour "

It was a wonderful tour at the national park, beautiful scenery, especially the viru bog. Our tour guide was friendly and fun. I learned a lot about the landscape and history of various sites.

"Very good guide"

Thanks for the interesting tour. Jevgeni was an enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide. Beyond Lahemaa, Jevgeni's explanations gave us a glimpse into today's Estonia.

"Wonderfull"

Merci à Oliver notre guide. Il a su répondre à toutes nos questions. Il nous a fait passer une super journée ! C’était génial !

"Great tour!"

Very nice Tour with a great guide. We've learned a lot about Estonia, as well as Estonians!

"Bubbly Baltic Bus "

This tour was amazing! Highly recommended! We left Tallinn early Sunday morning and arrived to Riga late Sunday night. In between was a lot of fun. We drove south front Tallinn through the countryside. We stopped in Viljandi and explored the old castle ruins. This was when I first realised the wealth of knowledge that our guide had. From there we drove to the border town of Valga and had a delicious lunch. Really clean restaurant, friendly staff and great food! This town also has a army museum including a tank, helicopter and other vehicles. Liine (our guide) blew my mind here with how much she knew about her local history. Back in the van and off to the next stop! This was to Gauja National Park where we did a trail walk though a beautiful forest full of pine trees, a river and sandstone cliffs. Really nice place. The next pit stop was in the very picturesque town of Césis. Liine yet again blew my mind as she talked about the town, its history and much more. Our final stop was in Sigulda. We got an awesome sunset view from the top of the bobsled track. Walking down the track was pretty surreal. A unique experience. Within an hour we were in Riga. It was a great day, incredible value for money and Liine was superb. I thoroughly enjoyed my time, learned a lot and highly recommend this company. Thank you!

"Rain or shine, fun time w Hannes"

This was a private tour so we wanted lors of flexibility. Hannes was very accomodatinh allowing us to choose the sites we wanted to see. He drove really well, knew his facts and history, and delivered his stories in a very entertaining manner. As rain poured down on us in Viljanda, we had to br ultra flexible on the remaining hours. As I needed to be in Riga at 7pm to catch a flight, and we needed additional suitcases, Hannen obliged our shopping needs and ensured we would find what we needed. Hannes was very helpful, cheerful and enthusiastic, all good traits for guides. It was a day well spent with Traveller tours from tallin to riga.

"Passionate tour guide with a wealth of knowledge!"

We had a comfortable seat to transfer from Tallinn to Riga. All we had to do was to listen to stories about almost integrated history and culture of Estonia and Latvia....the guide is not only a local but has astonishing knowledge about historical events about the two countries. Furthermore, he is quite passionate about his national identity which was demonstrated through his songs and storytelling. We learned so much, it’s almost overwhelming, but we enjoyed every moment of it!

"Amazing trip"

Last week, my family and I went on the Coastal Cliffs and Soviet Paldiski Tour. We very much appreciated the beautiful and varied scenery but also the different historical sites. Our tour guide, Kert, was amazing: his knowledge and passion for history was truely fascinating ! We all really loved this trip !

"An unforgettable day"

It was an interesting day because we learned a lot about the country, landscape and nature. Our guide was very nice and did a great job. I recommend this experience.

"Super nice !"

We had a lot of fun and learned a lot about the country's history and also about the places we visited. Amazing guide as well !

"Amazing day trip :D"

We really enjoyed our tour ! Incredible sights with a fun and knowledgeable guide is all you need to know. Definitely worth the money !

"Lahemaa park with an awesome guide"

Very interesting and smiling guide The groupe was super cool Had a very good experience

"Interesting tour with many jokes and good conversations"

The tour was good, there was many good conversations, the guide always answered on questions. The guide was also very nice, had done many jokes to made that tour quite funny. Places where quite interesting because there are as single tourist hard to find. Still one of the best way to travel from Tallinn to Riga or otherwise. I can recommend it

"Nice and relaxing day"

Nice tour, nice food and great weather. The only thing that we have missed were the Viking stories.

"A must do if you’re in Tallinn "

Very professional guide Beautiful scenery!

"Super Tour"

Sehr schöne Tour in den Nationalpark mit vielen Informationen

"Great experience!"

The Lahemaa day tour was a beautiful experience. We enjoyed the trip, the places and we were pretty lucky with the fine weather. The tour was also very informative! Thanks also to the guide we had very nice tips for other destination of our stay in Riga.

"Best day getting from A to B ever!"

We had a fabulous day with Krislin, she was very informative but kept everything light and fun. Messing around on the large swing at the castle ruins in Viljandi was one of the highlights of our holiday. The military museum was interesting but less of our sort of thing, Krislin quickly realised this and we moved on. We were lucky enough to have good weather which made the Gauja National Park even more beautiful. Cesis was a pretty little town and we were ready for a drink in the sun. The bobsleigh in Sigulda was fun although in a perfect world we would have been there early enough to have a go. So to sum it up, I stumbled across this tour when looking for a way of getting from Tallinn to Riga and we ended up having a lovely day. We saw bits of both Estonia and Latvia which we would not otherwise have discovered and turned a travelling day into a holiday highlight. The tour was great value for money and Krislin could not have been better.

"A very interesting trip"

A very interesting trip where the history and beauty of Estonian Nature are mixed equally. The visit inside the Antonov 12 is a must for aviation lovers! Very good work by our guide.

"Great way to get from A to B"

Great sightseeing along the way, bobsled track a highlight.

"Very nice experience"

It was very nice. Will do again.

"Tour of the Baltics - Tallinn to Riga"

A great way to see the countryside and places you might not know about along the way from Riga to Tallinn. Our guide was knowledgeable, engaging, and all-around fun to travel with. From the ruins of a Teutonic castle to the quirky military museum to the bobsleigh run it was a packed day. The highlight was a walk through the forest in Gauja National Park. Couldn’t ask for a better way to transit from Tallinn to Riga.

"Precioso viaje de Tallinn a Riga"

El viaje es muy interesante porque recorre lugares históricos y el guía va contando la historia de Estonia y Letonia. Los paisajes son preciosos, los lugares elegidos para visitar están muy bien sincronizados con la historia de esta región del mundo.

"Sightseeing as we go!"

Lovely to actually stop and visit places on the way from Tallinn to Riga - much better than just a straight coach transfer with only a comfort break along the way. Especially liked the stops in Gauja National Park and in Cesis to see the castle. Elina was pleasant, chatty and knowledgeable throughout what is a long day travelling. But the best way to get between the two cities. Great lunch stop also!

"Best tour to end my stay!"

No better way to discover Laheema National Park. Our guide J-J was very friendly, provided us with so much information not only about the park and the different locations we visited but also giving us a glimpse into Estonian history, culture and way of life. Our group was lovely. We were in no hurry so we took our time to have lunch, walk and enjoy every moment. Definitely the best way to end my stay in Estonia. Highly recommended

"One day in Laheema Park"

We spent a beautiful day in Laheema Park. Our guide was always smiling, kind and ready to give us many explications. The path in the park was lovely ! We ate in a very good typical tavern ( the salmon was delicious !). We highly recommend this tour !

"Excellent tour!"

Our driver Robert is very knowledgeable and informative. He took time to explain things to the group. My wife and I enjoyed the trip very much.

"Worth absolutely every penny "

We got to see places that would normally be hard for non-locals to access. Seeing Estonia and Latvia beyond the big capital cities, even if it was for a mere 12 hours, was fantastic and incredibly informative. If you ever need to get from Tallinn to Riga, or vice versa, definitely hit up this tour!

"Great way to get from Tallinn to Riga"

This is a great and fun way of getting from the cities of Tallinn to Riga. The stops along the way were pretty to look at. The group and guide I was with made it fun and exciting. We all bonded and had a really nice time. I really enjoyed walking the bobsled track. This tour was so much fun that I cancelled my flight from Riga to Vilnius to be able to do the tour between those cities.

"Interesting tour"

Very knowledgeable guide

"Highly recommend "

Super friendly and knowledgeable tour guide and great destinations that highlight the natural beauty of Estonia and Latvia. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone in the area.

"Unspoilt wilderness "

This was a wonderful and varied day. We walked through the bog (on the boardwalk), visited Estonia’s largest waterfall, ate lunch in a trad pub, walked round a Manor House, (outside only) and went to the beach. The bog was truly spectacular great bird life and scenery, the significance of this unique environment was starkly shown by walking a little way to see an area which was exploited for its peat. We splashed out on a private tour which was well worth it as we took it all at our own pace. I am so sorry I can’t recall our guide’s name but she is very good and informative.

"Very nice tour "

I recommend taking this tour, you get to see more of the countries than if you take a direct bus or train to Riga. The guide knows a lot so you get a lot of information on the way too.

"'Estonishing' Tour! From Tallinn to Riga"

My wife and I took the full day Van tour from Tallinn to Riga and it was awesome!! Gregor is to be commended - he was so friendly and knowledgeable! He knew so much history and gave us a wonderful insight into Estonian culture and mannerisms. He really is outstanding as a tour guide! We enjoyed the multiple stops and found that we never felt we were in the car for too long - the place we stopped for lunch was delicious!! And the hunting trophy collection inside the restaurant/hotel was very cool - like a museum really. Another notable stop was Sigulda to see the bobsleigh track - awesome views of the valley from the top! The van was comfy and we were even provided complimentary bottled water - all around an excellent experience.

"had some great parts"

Loved the first stop. Could have used some conversation while driving the initial 2 hours to the first stop, perhaps some general info on Estonia economy, culture or history. Lunch was delicious. The military museum seemed pointless and the guide did not add much. It's a shame we didn't have more time to hike through the national park, especially since our guide clearly loves nature. The second village was OK. The bobsled was also OK but not great. The guide was sweet but a little awkward. He spoke a bit more about Lithuania and less about Estonia & Latvia

"Three swiss ladies in Tallin and Riga"

The tour was very well organized. We were three young ladies who wanted to learn more about those countries with a local guide. Very interesting, very nice people in the car. The fact that we are travelling in small group is comfortable, you can learn to know each other and discover other cultures. The journey wasn't too long, or too short, just enough. The landscapes were just wonderful !!!!

"Everything was perfect"

Really nice entertaining trip. The stops all were interesting.

"The best way to go to Riga"

I didn't expect anything, just a drive to Riga. But in the end, all group was having so much fun and we have seen really interesting places in Estonia and Latvia. In the end, but no less important, Liine is one great guide, so nice, professional and full of knowledge.

"Discovering Estonian Nature In A Day"

Very good.

"A must do for those wanting to see beyond the boring."

Firstly, it needs to renamed as the word bus suggests 40+ people on a sweaty coach. No no no! We were in a group of 7, two 2s and a 3, plus our tour guide in new Ford mini van with aircon, radio and lots of water. They was another tour in another van so this is the norm and not a one off because of small numbers. The stops were stunning, 2 in Estonia and 3 in Latvia. The national park and bobsleigh track are by far the standouts. How often do you see a bobsleigh track let alone walk down it. The hotel for lunch was great... too many stuffed animals but its an experience its self and the food was lovely. A wide choice to choose from which was ordered earlier in the day so it was pretty much ready on our arrival. Not included in the cost of the day but nor should it be. Excellent value all round. Our tour guide was excellent and she always made sure everyone was happy and had what they needed. Her knowledge was great and her tips for enjoying Riga were priceless. This tour is great value, fun, interesting and a different way to get between Tallinn and Riga. Brilliant. Thank you!

"Kamile-xcellent - kamile-smile !!"

Kamile is a fantastic tour guide. Passionate, enthusiastic and caring. A proud Lithuanian. In her own words, "gentle as chamomile tea but also lively as a shot of red bull :)" (Kamile made a genuine effort to help two other travellers who had an erroneous booking, ensuring their trip to the next stop was secure. Simultaneously dealing with a rude parking inspector eeeks.) I really enjoyed the sights, the narrative, the history of Baltics and the delicious cuisine. The tour itself is a brilliant idea for any traveller to witness the regions and get from A to B. Highly recommended and well done Kamile!

"Highlight of my visit to Tallinn"

The tour was very comfortable and tons of fun. Our tour guide was amazing

"Loved Elina!!!!"

Elina was the best!! She led a super fun and informative tour. She was so interesting and I highly recommend her as a tour guide. Thank you Elina!!

"Definitely recommend...thoroughly enjoyed it! "

One of my favourite day trips that we did on our holiday. Loved the contrasting places...waterfall, peat bog and sea...all equally beautiful in their own way! Estonia is a beautiful place to visit. The guide had excellent local knowledge and the trip was very well organised

"Great trip with the singing tour guide."

Great way to see Estonia and Latvia. Mike, our guide, was fantastic. Funny, knowledgeable with many a sing-song and a story, Stops were great. Lunch was a highlight, best meal I had in the Baltics and the cheapest.

"A nice tour in the countryside with a very good guide"

The tour was very well organized in groups of 8 persons. The guide took us to see a watelfall, then a manor, then we walked through the forest and the bog (which was the highlight of the whole tour), we stopped for lunch, then went to a second manon, and finally visited a village by the sea, before returning to the city. The esthonian nature is really impressive. The guide was very well prepared and gave us a lot of colorful information about the people and the history of this small and beautiful country. The reason I do not rate the tour with 5 is the price, which was a little too high, and the lunch (but that is a matter of taste).

"wonderful time"

Our tour guide is very experienced and we have a wonderful time .

"wonderful time"

Our tour guide is very experienced and we have a wonderful time .

","

Enjoyed the sense of humour of our guide, obviously knowledgeable about the places we visited and the history of Estonia and Latvia. Never felt hurried and group of 6 was a good size. Lunch was at a great restaurant- liked the way we were able to pre-order so no hanging around. Was a long day but so much better than a quick dash from A to B. Comfortable vehicle

"Songs experience"

Mike was a fine guide, he gave clear instructions easy to understand and to follow, therefore you never get lost ! He also shared with the group numerous examples of Latvian songs, which was very interesting. Altogether with the differents spots of the days, it makes this journey a unique experience.

"Enjoyable trip with a great guide"

The 3 of us really enjoyed this tour. Our guide, Gregor, was really funny and told us lots of interesting stories about the history of Estonia and the places we visited. Would highly recommend this tour. Thanks!

"Estonian Countryside"

Brilliant in every way!!!!!! small group, no rush, inside knowledge, most welcoming!!! loved the swim in the bog lake!!!!! great lunch too!

"Awesome tour"

I enjoyed every minute of this amazing tour and can highly recommend it! Our guide Oliver was super friendly, kind and caring about every person in our group! And Lahemaa National Park is so beautiful place. Thank you very much for showing us it! Cheers!

"Sten is the man"

What a day. Superb adventure through the national park. Great tour guide. Sten was excellent throughout the day. He helped every single couple or person with questions about the day and their overall trips to Estonia and indeed the world, as Sten is very well travelled and totally loves his job and discussing the places we visited. The tour was well organised and all the places we visited were interesting. The timing of the day was good, ie enough time to visit places and not feel rushed. Food at lunchtime was excellent and in a wonderfully authentic tavern. We loved the whole day. Our favourite part was trekking through the bog and sipping our feet in the bog lake, so cold but really refreshing and it was a really hot day so we needed it! Loved it.

"Amazing tour!"

Our guide was very prepared, he was funny and the activities were great!! Really non turistic things! I really recommend this tour, the money is worth it!! Sten you were awesome! 😃😃

"Great Tour"

Always nice to see some of the surrounding area and this tour gives you a taste. The guides were informative and I was left feeling moved by what these people have been through the last 100 years.

"Highly recommend!"

This tour was definitely a highlight of my two week holiday exploring the Baltic countries. The Viru bog was my favorite - I really enjoyed walking along the boardwalk and taking in the beautiful surroundings. We were very lucky with the weather and the blue sky reflected perfectly in the bog lakes. Jevgeni was an excellent guide and we learned a lot about Estonian nature, history and legends.

"Estonia is Beautiful"

The Viru Bog was astounding! What an opportunity to see Estonia's beauty. The Jagala waterfall was a gorgeous stream before its plummet- both were worthwhile viewing. Who'd want to miss a walk along the seashore and then the forest walk. All sights were key. The most astonishing facts were about Estonia's manor houses and the history of Estonia after world War II. Robert was an excellent guide who showed us Estonia's beauty and so much more!!!

"A wonderful day！"

We had an excellent tour with a very knowledgeable and enthusiastic tour guide, Oliver. The bog area was amazing and the rest of the tour was interesting as well.

"Highly recommended"

This tour exceeded my expectations. I especially enjoyed the walk in the bog. The tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable.

"Interesting Tour"

Long tour but definitely worth it and I highly recommend it to anyone who would like to learn more about the Soviet times. The tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable.

"A wonderful journey "

A wonderful journey - - Wild blueberry grows under the pine tree every where (tasty 😋). Beautiful trail, amazing dark water , good +friendly tour guide. 😍

"Great experience of nature with good informative guides"

Enjoyed Viru Bog and Altjaa village

"Great tour!"

Excellent guide, comfortable van and well-selected sites to visit. Great experience, thank you!

"Fun day in countryside."

Well planned day with frequent stops to learn about Estonian history and present.

"Very nice trip!!"

It was a long day (in a comfortable AIRCO bus) with nice excursions and a good lunch. The other passengers were also friendly, we have had a lot of fun with each other. My son and I enjoyed it. We will tell all are friends about this trip!! Thank you Anna!!

"Urban exploring, castles and shale bings"

Katlin is a proper history teacher who kept us engaged and enthused as we struck east past storks and an elk (yes! -not guaranteed every day). From Narva we looked at Russia, Lenin, twin forts and the huge Krenholm cotton mill. Mining town Kohtla-Jarve, with garden city origins, shale bings and an Armenian restaurant (try the Georgian green lemonade, looks like absinthe), the model soviet Sullimae, which had some nefarious cold war purpose, and a not-entirely-abandoned mining village (some valiant residents still holding out with neat gardens against adjacent abandonment). Tolse Teutonic castle on the seashore and an interesting (yes) cement works started the day's visits. Be prepared for a long and stimulating day rich in recent and ancient memories. Thank you!

"Day Trip to Laheema National Park"

We had an excellent tour with a very knowledgeable tour guide, Hannes. The bog area was amazing (and we could have spent more time wandering there) and the rest of the tour was interesting as well. The enthusiastic tour guide made the day trip hard to forget. Thanks for the memories.

"I’m Tallinn ya it’s great!! "

Great to explore other parts of these countries aside from the capital cities. Our guide was very knowledge and gave a great insight into the history of both countries. He was really enthusiastic and was very helpful. Really enjoyed our trip, Thank you Fred/Frank 😃

"Great bog walk"

Good guide, answered questions honestly and thoroughly. Glad we were able to do more hiking because the manor pond was reserved for a wedding. WOuld have been happy to skip the manor all together, especially since we didn't go inside anyway. The bog walk was my favorite - wish they had advised us to bring swimming gear!

"Why fly when you can tour and experience more?"

I recently toured from Tallinn in Estonia to Riga in Latvia. Traveller tours picked us up in a luxury minibus. Our tour leader was the vibrant, lovely Anna. She was constantly checking whether we were comfortable and included small stops where needed (the prostate thing, you know). She was knowledgeable, funny, informative and probably the best tour leader I’ve ever been with. We stooped to see castle ruins, visit quaint little towns, visit a military museum where we were given insight into life under soviet rule. Lunch was fantastic and even the fact that we had to pay for the meal and drinks it wad reasonable priced for what we received. My highlights were the visits to the national park, the bob sleigh track and since we were in strawberry season, the stop at a farm stall where I tasted the sweetest, juiciest syrawberries I have ever tasted. Kudos to Anna and Traveller Tours for an interesting alternative to flying.

"Very informative"

I really wanted to learn about the Soviet occupation and see cities in the interiors of Estonia. It was a fantastic and informative tour. Our tour guide Kat was really good. Gave us ample information about the medieval history of Estonia and later on about the soviet occupation. We visited cities on the border town. Saw old abandoned castles/forts and some refurbished ones. This tour is not everyones cup of tea but if you are interested, I’d highly recommend it.

"Definitely worth it - recommend ! "

It’s lovely to go through the Estonian and Latvian countryside and our Tour guide was a great chap who showed us the many sights along the way.

"Nice guide"

Great Tour. Nice local scout. 👍👍👍

"Nice trip"

We had a nice day with our guide Mike who showed us different sites in Estonia and Latvia. Great Trip, we recommand it.

"Bog Magic!"

Our guide, Uku, was amazing! Friendly and full of facts he guided us through the Viru Bog and the mires of Estonian history. Visiting the Gulf of Finland's erratic boulders and the highest waterfall in Estonia were highlights. The two Baltic German majors we got to poke around inside were amazing as well. All round money well spent! I cannot recommend this highly enough!!!! :)

"Nature"

Great!

"Cool experience"

It was a great experience to see more than just the capital and getting to know more of the two countries. We loved the ride and the conversation with our guide.

"Very interesting sightseeing tour "

Very nice guide knowing everything about Estonia and Latvia, people, countryside, monuments, history and languages... We learned so much from Krislin !

"A great day out of the city"

Four of us took a private Lahemaa National Park Day Tour with Andres. We had a great day out of the city walking on the trail through the bogs, enjoying the coastline and visiting manor houses and fishing huts. Andres was an excellent guide - knowledgeable and interesting and happy to answer our many questions. He also suggested a lovely seaside restaurant for lunch.

"Tallin - Riga"

Ottima soluzione per raggiungere Riga, tappe interessanti. Ottima soluzione di ristoro. Guida attenta e disponibile!! E' la prima volta che con la famiglia ci appoggiamo ad un tour e siamo molto soddisfatti, lo consigliamo!

"Best way to visit and travel throughout the Baltic states. "

We did several activities with traveller.ee including the 12-hour journey from Tallinn to Riga with Lõmaš. It was awesome due to the enthusiasm of the guide, his kindness and eagerness to share culture and knowledge. Small group of 8 people, enabled us to exchange, to ask questions and create a nice and ludic atmosphere during the journey and the tour. Lõmaš clearly knows hid stuff and is genuinely happy to share it with you. He adapts to the centres of interest of the group and always have fascinating stories to tell. The highlights of the tour were adapted to the length of the journey and Lõmaš made sure to look after us as we didn't speak the linguo in some museums so we could enjoy the visit. Strongly recommended.

"A DAY IN PARADISE"

Merci pour cette belle journée de découverte nature et culture. C'est exactement ce qu'il nous fallait pour mieux découvrir l'Estonie. Tout était parfait avec un guide attentif qui aime faire partager les beautés de son pays.

"Cliff edge insights into recent and ancient pasts"

A perfect day seeing far more than just Paldiski. Gregor took us to view cliffs so we begin with geology, and that led on to the waterfalls at a Manor House which was the place to briefly relate the history of the Estonians from pagan resisters to the present day. Greg is a proper historian who delivers his subject lightly and well. Then we turned up at a former Soviet missile base just as a rocket was prepared for launching on the 50th anniversary of Apollo 11. On to some lighthouses, compounds of cars destined for Russia, and a nice pub lunch. Highlight was the amazing submerged prison quarry ( as seen on Abandoned Engineering TV prog) and lastly we boarded an Antonov Soviet plane. The guiding was just right, not too didactic. And we covered ground to see what we would have trouble finding without Greg. Thank you for a superb day!

"See Lahemaa without this tour at your own peril!"

We had a lovely time with this guided tour. The Viru bog was the highlight for us, but the waterfall, the fishing village of Altja and the lunch were also good! Our guide Sten was a gentleman and a scholar, both a well of knowledge and good in taking care of the group and engaging everyone individually. He even picked us all some tasty berries! Also, a good driver. Overall, we had a great time and highly recommend this tour. Well worth your money!

"A memorable experience!"

The 12-hour trip went by very quickly and it was because the trip great. I got to see different sites that I wouldn't have been able to should I choose the 3 hour-long boring bus ride just to get from point A to point B. Mike, our guide, is very charming, charismatic, kind, and sweet. In addition, he is knowledgable. I really enjoy him, the stories he shared, and all the folks songs he sang. What a treat!. I was traveling alone, but I will do the same route next time I come with my partner.

"Very good guide / quirky stops. "

Was very pleased with our guide - he was knowledgeable, conversant, and had good energy. We were off the beaten path and saw interesting and unusual sights. I learned a semester’s worth of Baltic history in one day! We never overstayed anywhere and, while the day was long, I felt the pace was good (I can be impatient). Definitely a great way to get from Tallinn to Riga. Only downside was that modern Ford vans do not offer ideal sight lines (I was in the middle row and stared at a large headrest / side view was adequate). Front and far-back seats have best views.

"Perfect tour!"

I highly recommend this tour. The guide was friendly and knowledgeable. You’ll see a waterfall, a bog, 2 manors, and a fishing village while learning about Estonian history and way of life.

"The best way to explore the area!"

Uku was really knowledgeable and fun to listen to. We stopped at lots of interesting and beautiful places and the 12 hours went by very quickly. It was a really great day and excellent value.

"Great way to get to Riga"

We had Gregor as our guide and he was fantastic. Gave us lots of information about each of the places (with an Estonian slant!) and made sure everyone was happy and comfortable. The places we visited were interesting and we wouldn't have seen or found out about them if we just got on a plane to Riga so well worth doing!

"Fun and entertaining!."

Liine was fantastic! She was incredibly knowledgeable about the national flora and fauna and helped us hunt for wild blueberries! She had just the right combination of knowledge, being in charge, friendly and helpful. The pace of the trip was just right. Enough time to do everything and we ever felt rushed to get to the next stop. Lunch was traditionally Estonian and plentiful (huge portions! ) I enjoyed the variety of places visited especially the swing!

"What a ride!"

Krislin was a wonderful tour guide. It’s a 12 hour day but broken up nicely so it doesn’t seem overly long. The stops were definitely worth seeing. One I could have passed on, but Krislin made it extremely interesting. The bob sled track was especially interesting to see.

"The Perfect Transfer Tour!"

This was a great way to get from Tallinn to Riga. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and entertaining. The best way to see these sights along the way! I think the only stop that could have been skipped is the Military museum. More time in Cesis would have been better. Otherwise a great transfer tour!!

"no"

The tour was really nice our guide Robert (tall blonde Estonian) was very good, his english was surprisingly good as well and he was very informative. The military museum stop seemed kinda pointless but thats partially because I was already somewhat informed.

"We loved this tour!"

It was a great way to travel between Tallinn and Riga. We visited great places off the regular tourist beat. Our driver/guide was fabulous. We learnt so much about the history as well as what life is like today in Estonia and Latvia.

"Magnificent !"

We spent a magnificent day at the park. The guide was very nice, informative and gave us ample time to relax and enjoy the beautiful nature. Definitely would use these tours again.

"Pride of the guide!"

A small group and it gelled so well. People from Germany(3), Malta(2) and Australia(3) and guided throughout the day by an excellent and expert guide who not only knew her stuff but described everything with such enthusiasm. Clearly a devoted patriot of her beloved Estonia. Oh yes, an excellent driver as well. The tour started(10 am)and finished(7 pm) in Old Town and there many highlights not least being the walk through the peat bog areas of the Laheema National Park and the visit to the traditional fishing village. Highly recommended!

"Truly the most interesting transport option"

The tour is indeed the most interesting way of commute from Tallinn to Riga where you get to stop at a few places listening to interesting stories and meeting people from different places. Our guide Eli is great!

"Perfect way to go from Tallinn to Riga"

When you don’t have your own car and does not want to rent one this trip is PERFECT SOLUTION! Not only you get from the Estonian capital to the Latvian, but you can see many interesting places on the road, which are not easy to see without driving, or at least not in such a short time. The castles were great, as well as the walk in the national park. I liked a bit less the visit to the Sigulda bobsleighs, but this is only my personal taste. However, if you have time, go back to Sigulda for a day trip from Riga. Take the train or a bus (about an hour) visit the castle, take the cable car over the river valley, walk to Turaida castle through the forest - it is an excellent cultural & natural experience.

"Fun day of sightseeing while transferring"

It was a nice way to see a bit of the country-side of the two countries while transferring between them. Some fairly interesting sights to visit and a knowledgeable and entertaining guide talking about the history and people. I enjoyed it

"Worth the detour! "

Decided to go for this tour instead of a direct non-stop bus to Riga to check out some smaller towns, which truly I wouldn’t have gone on my own. Gregor was really into the history and was a great guide for us. I think it really helps when the guides have passion for their job. Helps us enjoy too! Some might find this tour a little too long, but the stops are well-planned out and with good toilet breaks as well.

"Charming guide, charming trip, charmed guests!"

The whole family enjoyed the Tallinn-Riga trip with Marju, very professional, excellent driver, lot of culture and knowledge about the history of Estonia and Latvia. Moreover, the blue eyes, the good mood and the smile were always there. Really worth the experience! Definitely recommended!

"Fun, sociable and educational. We had a great day."

Krislin was a charming, relaxed and well informed guide. It was really nice meeting a small group of people from all over the world and spending some time with them in the context of interesting activities that sparked conversation. The stops on the tour were varied and the tour well structured and thought out. The restaurant we ate lunch in was outstanding.

"Really awesome!"

The tour was really great, we had an amazing day! The guide, Uku, knew so much about every place we stopped. He was telling us information in a way we could easily understand, and made some jokes. I liked the fact that it was only a little group. We had plenty of time at all the places we stopped. We were never rushed. The guide gave us enough time to enjoy the place, and to hear his stories. At one point, it was raining so hard, that Uku stopped at a gasstation to buy us some raincoats. We were lucky that it stopped raining at the next stop, but it was really nice of him. Lunch was good, and we had a great day. I would really recommend this tour! And Uku, thank you for the really great day!

"A tour guide who also travels "

Our tour guide was Andres and he was amazing. So great to have a tour guide that actually travels as well - and has lots of insights and empathy for those who are traveling. He was very amusing and made the history come alive. He also was a very safe driver... we had torrential rain on the way and at times visibility was very poor. He was very cautious and I never felt unsafe .

"Informative way to travel"

This tour was well worth it as it allowed us to travel between Tallinn & Riga and learn so much along the way. Our guide was do knowledgeable . Highly recommended.

"Day tour around Tallinn and nearby countryside"

The tour was excellent, as was the guide we had. It was a jam packed tour for a port day (part of a Baltics cruise) so the operator was amenable to customizing the tour and starting as soon as possible, first thing in the morning. The group loved the tour and, including myself, was thoroughly exhausted by the end of the tour. Will come to these guys again when I do an Estonia/Latvia/Lithuania trip!

"A marvellous trip into the green"

The overall trip from Tallinn to Riga was excellent. The mini bus was comfortable. Our guide Catherina was very kind, nice, helpful and tried to explain us whatever we saw. You can't do such a trip by yourself or with an ordinary touristic tour. We saw many interesting places. I called it a trip into the green because green is the color of nature in Estonia and Latvia and we saw every tone of green on the road, in national parc and in small towns we visited. Thanh you for this wonderful trip.

"It was great"

I had an excellent time

"Nature, swings, ancient fishing village and manor house "

We spent a perfect day exploring Estonian Nature, former way of life and got to know inside infos while having lunch in a traditional restaurant :)

"Great nature trip with excellent guide"

The day in and around the Lahemaa national park went really well. The fact that you are in a small group does not make you feel like a package tourist ;-) We saw Estonia’s biggest waterfall, walked in pine forests, visited a traditional fishing village and as a highlight of the trip we made a tour in the Viru bog, an interesting wetland. Our guide was knowledgeable both about the nature as well as history and kept us entertained during the whole trip.

"Riga or bust!!!!!"

We had a great time on this trip. Carolus ( hope i’ve spelt it right) was a fun tour guide and a wealth of knowledge. Would recommend this trip to anyone visiting Tallinn. We had a mixed age group on our tour but everyone seemed to have as good a tome as us oldies😂

"On the Road to Riga"

If you have the time make sure to take this tour as it will take you through the Estonian and Lan Feehan countryside and introduce you to some of the past from these two countries. In addition the tour guides her fantastic, Good drivers and very knowledgeable about the region. Highly recommend!

"Great service indeed!!!"

It was great service and value for money.

"Off the beaten track "

Eli is a kind energetic friendly enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide. Very helpful lively and conscientious. The tour was fun informative and entertaining. The 12 hours passed quickly.

"Blueberry let us no blue"

It was a sunny day, when our tour went to the Lahemaa National Park. That is the key point we very enjoy the trip.

"Outstanding day in lahemaa natural park"

A very nice day, full of discoveries. Outstanding views in the bog, very nice walk in a tiny fishermen village. We even tried an « Estonian swing »! That was a very nice experience in the nature and I recommend it.

"Enriching"

Just like it!

"Excellent Option to Make Tallinn - Riga Interesting"

We looked at traveling between Tallinn and Riga by train or bus and found this comprehensive small group tour was a better option. The cost is reasonable and you get to see a few places of interest along the way. Our guide Linne was very knowledgable, quirky and fun! She made the day interesting without drowning us in facts and dates but gave good information and was able to expand based on peoples questions and interest levels. I would do this trip again! It also runs in the reverse format or Riga to Tallinn.

"Impressive "

Really impressive trip here

"Wonderful one-day trip for nature lovers!"

The guide Katharine is very nice and knowledgeable. The trip will allow you to get a real taste of Estonia's nature and know the country better.

"Exciting and informative tour"

A really great experience to visit Lahemaa. Our guide was very nice and kind. She gave lots of information about the sights, which were so beautiful. We enjoyed every second of this tour!

"A great day away from Tallinn."

My family all said this was one of their favorites of our trip to Tallinn. Our guide Kert was great. Getting to see the old Soviet town, quarry/prison, abandoned base and cargo plane gave us a feel for life under the USSR rule. Getting to the coastal cliffs gave us some beautiful views.

"Best way between the capitals"

If your going to travel between the capitals, why not spend a little more time and see the countryside, castles, towns, and bobsled track? Absolutely worth it and our guide was great!

"Fantastic Tour"

Really worthwhile tour.

"GREAT DAY IN NATURE"

The tour was very good. I really needed the nature time after being in the Song Festival crowds. Only issue was the rented vehicle. It had no air conditioning and had a gas leak somewhere. That made for an unpleasant drive between stops.

"Travel with a local touch"

Excellent knowledgeable guide. Comfortable van. Enjoyable sights.

"Travel with a local touch"

Excellent knowledgeable guide. Comfortable van. Enjoyable sights.

"A highly enjoyable tour!"

The tour was incredibly fun and interesting, with an excellent balance of history, culture and nature. Our guide was friendly, approachable an deeply knowledgeable.

"Informative trip and a safe drive"

The trip is interesting. The guide (sorry, I think her name is Linne, but not so sure) , is knowledgeable and explain the history clearly. Why not join this tour if you are travelling from Tallinn to Riga. It save time and you got to visit different places.

"An interesting cultural trip"

We have found that the whole tour was very interesting because not only we saw the sceneries of Estonia and Latvia, and also learnt a lot about these two countries’ history, culture, society and nature. Our guide Anna was extremely passionate, enthusiastic and helpful. We had a very good lunch in a beautiful restaurant. However, we hope that we could have some free time by ourselves for walking around historic towns.

"Best way to travel from Tallinn-Riga"

There is no reason to travel from Tallinn to Riga any other way. Our guide Liine was fun, informative and very knowledgeable. We saw things that we probably wouldn't have seen travelling on our own and learned a ton of interesting history along the way.

"What a joyful ride!!!"

Except for the fact that the rain interrupted our hiking in the national park, we did have a great trip all the way from Tallinn to Riga. Thanks for the other nice teavelmates and our super guide Anna, we enjoyed ourselves a lot.

"A chance to see another side of Estonia"

I booked for this tour at the last minute and it was a good decision to do so. The natural beauty of the coastal cliffs and learning about Estonia in Soviet times made for an interesting day. Visiting the abandoned Murru prison quarry was a major highlight. Our lunch stop at a small restaurant/cafe was a chance to enjoy the best pastries I have ever eaten. The only reason I have not given five stars is because the tour did not visit the Padise monastery ruins as advertised - I am not sure why. Still, that apart, it was a really good day.

"The wheels on the bus go round & round,but no bob sleigh!"

Good tour but we got a new tour driver/guide, with a lack of confidence.It was his first tour. If it wasn't for a fellow traveller who filled in the history points,this might have been boring. The stop for a meal was exceptional. Very good quality, 5 star meal at a reasonable price. Loved the places we visited,but very disappointed as we booked due to the bobsleigh ride. We were not the only disappointed travellers. They only run at the weekend,please be aware. Will recommend to others,would do it again as it bets a 4 1/2 hour boring bus journey.

"An amazing day in the national park"

Had a great time on the tour. Saw a waterfall, some manor houses, walked through a bog and on the beach by the sea, and more. Our guide explained much about the history and present of the places. Also met some interesting people as all participants were from different countries. I definitely recommend the tour, especially if you have already seen the old town.

"From Swamp to Sea in the Lahemaa National Park"

Although the weather was not at its best we had a very enjoyable to the Lahemaa National Park and surrounding with Marju. There is a great beauty in the still ponds and lush greens of the peat bog that is an antidote to the hussle and bussle in Tallinn. We also had a walk to the coast, which is very pretty and there are not many seas where swans can be seen. Getting to use the village swing (kiiking) was a nice bonus. Marju is a very informative guide and as well as explaining what we were seing, gave us a lot of insights of what life for Estonians is really like. So if you want to clear your head and breathe in some clean air while enjoying some unusual natural environments I thoroughly recommend this tour!

"Nice tour!"

We had a really good guide who told us a lot of indept stories about Estonian and Latvian culture. Really injoyed it!

"A perfect day in Lahemaa"

good service, friendly guide, a lot of information about the park and the estonian way of life and sunny whether! Great experience!

"Yes, go!"

Trains are an option, but this bus service is great for those who like seeing more than just city centers. Guides were fun & knowledgeable. The crowd was mixed: younger & older, travelers from many countries but all in English.

"Great journey from Tallinn to Riga"

Mike (Mikelis) was an amazing driver. He know very well the history of the two countries and responded to all our questions. Great singer too!

"Wonderful day visiting Lahemaa"

We had a nice day visiting Lahemaa with our Estonian guide, Sten, on Wednesday. We learned many things from Sten, not only history but also about nature, food, Estonian traditions, etc. We really enjoyed the hiking in Viru Bog, the town of Altja and the lunch in a traditional restaurant. It's really worth it if you want to get a real insight of this part of Estonia. Good value for money! Our trip mates from Australia, Germany and Slovenia were also fantastic, thank you all and thank you Stan!

"Excellent service "

Perfect tour, perfect guide, well educatied.

"Dead Lenin in a Derelict Brewery Garden"

Taking the slow route through Estonia and Latvia is definitely the best option. Our guide, Katlin, was knowledgeable, helpful and charming and she was able to give us a good history of both countries. It is also interesting to travel with a previously unknown group of mixed nationalities. The stops were well chosen and varied. If one were to offer a slight criticism, the minibus, although very modern and sleek, was a little small for the number of people on board. All in all, this was an excellent trip that we would recommend highly to others. We are now interested in investigating Traveller Tours to other destinations.

"Spectacular coastline"

The waterfall and the manor house are picturesque. The coastal cliff is simply spectacular, the highlight of the tour! We could spend the whole day wandering along the coast that covered with colorful wildflowers.

"Travelling from Tallinn to Riga on a public holiday "

Robert had his task cut out when had to entertain a group of travellers on a public holiday when just about every place closed, even the public toilets. Nevertheless he performed very well by filling in the gaps with his excellent knowledge of the Estonian history and besides getting us to our destination safely we were even able to enjoy a good meal en route. Well done!

"See more than Tallinn"

Professional and knowledgeable guide showed us more than the cities and gave us context for understanding Estonia more fully.

"Loved Lahemaa"

From the easy and punctual start in Old Town to the many interesting stops along the way this was a very well run tour. Excellent itinerary. Knowledgeable and prepared guide, Perfect weather.

"Could not have been better!"

Gregor was such a nice driver, guide and friend! He made the trip unique and was really helpful and flexible, when things didn't work as planned! Great job, good luck for your future! - The 4 German guys ;-)

"Easy way to experience a bit of country "

Very good idea to visit places on the way between Tallinn and Rīga, and this one is made easy and nice, we had a very knowledgeable and accommodating tour guide. I guess I wish we had seen more of Estonia, the museum wasn’t too much of a new thing to me.

"This was a very good trip "

The bog is an exceptionnal landscape. We appeciate the explanations about the plant and history. the restaurant was différent of the description : so we have been despite (a little) about the smoked salmon. The fisher ‘s village of Altja was very cute A visit in french would be to organize Furthermore, a flyer with explainations could help to understand

"Great guide"

Thought guide 's name was Nina. Very fun and informative. It was a good group. Some walking parts I had to miss due to a disability. Would have liked more time in Cesis. It was a very long day

"Very informative guide"

The bog is very interesting. The pace is not so fast and is suitable for family with kids and senior. Hannes is also very knowledgeable about plant and history. I have good time

"good desicion"

We had a nice, informative and funny day, pleasant company and a really likeable guide with a comfortable way of driving. Recommendation!

"Truly the best way to go from Tallinn to Riga"

Robert took us from Tallinn to Riga with a lot of stops in between that allowed us to better know and understand both countries. The mood was always very good with very interesting discussions, both directly related with the tour or just with something else we thought interesting. I truly recommend Traveller Tours and, specifically, the Tallinn–Riga Sightseeing Tour Bus!

"A great way go experience some of Estonia's natural beauty"

There is so much more to Estonia than the old town of Tallinn. It was definitely worth my while to take this amazing tour - it was a small group (four of us in total) and we saw the coast on the Gulf of Finland, a small fishing village and an impressive manor house but the big highlight was the walk through Viru Bog - it's on a narrow plank boardwalk but it's quite an easy walk with so much incredible plant life to look at. It's not necessary to be a biologist to appreciate the beauty of Lahemaa National Park. Our guide Marju was very knowledgeable and she gave us all the information we needed without it being an overload.

"A fun filled getaway from the city"

As a fully private tour, our guide asked about our preferences so he could tailor it to our interests. Coming from a city full of concrete buildings, the children had a fun time picking wild strawberries and discovering nature, walking on a peninsula out to sea, and exploring old abandoned military bunkers in the forests. Another attraction of the tour was a little park in middle of nowhere with a wooden replica of the Eiffel Tower that swayed in the wind as we climbed up, surrounded by swings, a little house of maze, and several other kiddy attractions. We also visited a lighthouse and climbed to the top where the view was simply exhilarating. Overall, the serene island provided a refreshing break from city buzz.

"Tour offered cultural insights beyond visit to capital cities. "

Kert was a great guide. His enthusiasm to share his knowledge of the history and culture of Estonia and Latvia was a huge benefit to our trip from Tallinn to Riga. I did enjoy each of the stops. I do wish we could have explored Cesis to a greater extent. The road to the national park was pretty rough (Gravel road with extended sections with washboard). But in it's own way, the road revealed the state of rural living as it exists today. The restaurant for lunch was nice.

"Highly recommend "

Great guide and went to places we otherwise wouldn't know about or thought of visiting. The bobsleigh track was super cool.

"Great day trip"

Friendly guide & some nice interesting sights! Cannot fault how accomodating the guide was, plus he was a very good safe driver. I would’ve loved to give it 5 stars but I dropped a star because the minibus was a bit uncomfortable & cramped to spend 11+ hours in (In the row behind the driver there’s no room to stretch your legs out). I also felt it was a bit too long a day with one too many stops. But it’s a really fun way to see the country!

"Amaizing idea!!!! "

We had a great time and very interesting history from Gregor the whole trip!!!! It could have been a boring 5-6 hour bus trip and ended being an incredible interesting nature rich journey!!!! I traveled with my 9 year old son who had a blast! Thank you so much!!!!!

"Robert was a real gem"

Despite the public holiday our guide Robert showed great resourcefulness in providing an interesting tour when the usual museums were closed. Great knowledge of Estonian history

"Unique and beautiful part of the world"

This tour was a great way to see the beautiful national park. The Altja area was absolutely stunning, where the eerie pine forest met the brilliant blue Baltic sea strewn with glacier-borne granite boulders. Also lunch at a local tavern was hearty and traditional. Our guide Hannes went in detail describing not only the natural beauty that we were witnessing, but also covering Estonian modern history of the last 200+ years, giving us some context around why Estonians love nature. He did it all with a great sense of Estonian dry humour. All in all a great day that I would highly recommend, even if you don't get the beautiful sunny day that we had.

"Good way to sample the countryside of Estonia and Latvia"

If you’re not in a hurry to get from one capital city to another, this twelve hour tour provides a nice sample of some of the rural gems between Tallinn and Riga. Our guide, Mike, was engaging, well informed, and fun. He shared both fact and fable, as well as several songs. The lunch at a country inn was outstanding.

"Bog, Sea and Forest "

A wonderful escape from town into different parts of Lahemaa National Park and time for a traditional lunch too. Easy hiking and great scenery with some culture and history too!

"Interesting Way to Travel"

Our guide was informative and enthusiastic. The stops along the way were interesting and the tour is well paced. One negative thing is that only the people who sit in the front next to the guide get to hear her commentary and ask questions along the way. This was frustrating.

"Wonderful Day Trip from Tallinn to Riga"

We are much appreciated for this one day tour. The time schedule is good because we have visited Estonian Traditional Music Center, Sietiniezis, Cesis and Sighlda. The guide’s sincere and helpful manner could give us a good memory, she gave us many information in each attraction and also explained very well. The lunch is delicious and the place very good. Although this tour is only one day but we extremely grateful to her.

"Wonderful Day Trip from Tallinn-Riga"

We are much appreciated for Miss Eli did in this trip. The time schedule is good. Her sincere and helpful manner could give us a good memory,

"The best way to get from Tallinn to Riga n"

Our guide Robert is a history student with very deep knowledge of the Baltic countries. He provided a clear and informative commentary at each of the stops and whilst driving. He was highly considerate of each of the passengers on the tour and we throughly enjoyed the diverse range of sites that we visited. In summary, a great way to see some of Estonia and Latvia between Tallinn and Riga!

"A great introduction to the old town!"

Our guide was very informative and entertaining. He had plenty of interesting stories to tell and gave an excellent introduction to Riga’s history. Well worth doing when you first arrive in Riga.

"Interesting way to see two countries in one day"

A cool way to see more than an airport or train station, in between Tallinn and Riga. While I love to travel by train, this bus tour made a lot more sense, gave me the opportunity to meet a local guide, as well as new friends. While we stopped a few times, my favorite two stops were the National Park and the bobsled track. Our guide Mike was great, interesting, funny, and very nice.

"Great way to spend a day!"

We had an excellent tour on 6/19/19. Very small group of 4 people plus our guide. Our guide was very informative and personable. Highly recommend if you want to learn about Estonia and see the countryside in a hassle free way.

"Great way to travel"

An amazing day with opportunity to walk around some special places, learning about the history and people of Estonia and Latvia. The stories, songs and descriptions from the tour guide were amazing. Also great opportunity to talk to fellow travelers. This is the best way I’ve ever traveled to another city.

"A very well thought out tour"

The tour was very well organised, allowing me to appreciate different aspects of Estonia culture and history. My guide, Sten, was super attentive and was very knowledgeable. Highly recommended.

"A SUPER TOUR WITH S SUPER TOUR GUIDE "

A very interesting tour to the Cliffs , Country Park with Waterfall and onto Paldiski , a place that Fascinated me from afar ( Northern Ireland) A very informative Tour Guide who also took us to visit an old Russian Fighter Bomber . Not sure if our female guide was called Marju?

"Outstanding Excursion"

Great trip run by a brilliant female guide, witty, informative with a great sense of fun.

"Recommend "

Interesting and fun trip. Get to see some lovely parts of the counties that wouldn’t see otherwise.

"Wonderfull tour with a charming tour guide"

The tour was so much fun. When we started it it was 5 men and Elina, so I thought this is not going to be that interesting. Luckely all people in board were intelligent and cultures so we enjoyed conversing with each other. Elina was the best tour guide a tourist could hope for. So informed, intelligent, witty, considerate, funny and cherming. She was in a great mood to whole time. You can tell she loves doing her job. I saw and learnt so much about these 2 beautifull countries, which I could not have done on my own. This tour has evoked a desire in me to visit Estonia and Latvia again. I would recommend Traveller tours to everyone. P.S. Give Elina a raise, she deserves it.

"Beats the bus"

Intercity bus takes 4.5 hrs so half day is gone. This one takes all day but you see the castles and countryside, understand better the real Baltics, interact with the local guide. Very nice.

"Fun and Informative"

This tour was a great way to see the character of Estonia and Latvia in ways we would not have experienced otherwise.

"Good tour, but a little too much to see"

We covered a lot on this tour: Viljandi castle ruins, Military museum in Valga, Gauja National Park, Cēsis, and Sigulda bobsleigh track. This was both good and bad: we got to see a lot, but it also felt kind of rushed. I feel like cutting one of the stops, maybe the castle ruins, and spending a little more time at the military museum or Cesis might have been nice. Otherwise, it was great!

"Every which way but South"

Well done excursion. Comfortable vehicle, knowledgeable guide and interesting sites. Preferable to getting on a bus or plane and simply covering distance. Most surprising aspect? Exceptional lunch at Lili’s restaurant!

"Explore the unexplored"

Katrin tried really hard to accomodate us. She tended to all our needs. I got to see parts of Estonia which I couklld not have seen on my own in a day. Very informative comentry. It is a part of the country that has been neglected and needs more loving. It will not blow your mind, but will give you another perspective of this beautiful country.

"Long Day but Full Heart"

What a wonderful way to see the countryside of the two countries of Estonia and Riga while soaking up new insights into the histories, cultures and trajectories of these two "infant countries" with rich and profound roots.

"Long Day but Full Heart"

What a wonderful way to see the countryside of the two countries of Estonia and Riga while soaking up new insights into the histories, cultures and trajectories of these two "infant countries" with rich and profound roots.

"Very interesting tour with a great tour guide"

If travelling between Tallin and Riga and vice verse this is the way to do it if you want to see some more of Estonia and Latvia away from the cities. Small groups of 8 meant it was personable and friendly.

"Really beautiful countryside"

This tour was lead a very energetic & passionate tour guide (Andres). He took us around some very beautiful countryside and national park. Although he promised us bog monsters but I never seen any which was disappointing. He also took us to a lovely seaside restaurant for lunch which was great. Best part of the tour was to an Estonian person's house which is a Maritime museum (Excellent). I would strongly recommend this tour.

"My great day out to the coast & Paldiski"

This tour was excellent. It was great to see the coastal area of Estonia which is very beautiful & quiet (great for nature lovers), and then on to a place which used to be a naval base in Soviet times (for me it had quite an eerie feel to it). The tour guide (Marju) was very friendly and answered any questions about the area & Estonia that I asked. Very pleased with this tour.

"Great tour. Brilliant guide Uku. Good value. "

Our guide, Uku, was brilliant. He had a fantastic knowledge of his country & its history & with a great sense of humour & irony. I really enjoyed the trip. We got a good look at the countryside & coast. I just would have liked to have been shown on a map where we were visiting & the names of places. Overall, very good & good value.

"A lot of variety and interesting information."

Our guide, Anna, was very enthusiastic, helpful and well-informed. We enjoyed listening to her. Thank you Anna! All in all a great trip!

"Tour"

Nice Tour to stunning landscape with waterfall swamps, Forest, manors ans a Village at the baltic sea. The drives between the stops were not too long, and the guide does not rush you through anything. The Restaurant was good with good prices and selection.

"Imprescindible si te gusta la naturaleza"

100 % recomendable. Sólo por hacer el camino de Viru Bog ya merece la pena, el guía acompaña al grupo una parte del camino y después da un margen amplio de tiempo para que lo termines por tu cuenta, además tuvimos suerte porque aunque nos hizo mal tiempo apenas nos cruzamos con nadie, y eso hizo la experiencia mucho más auténtica. Para mí lo mejor del recorrido el pantano y las casitas de Altja. Por pedir algo más me hubiese gustado visitar la Manor House por dentro, la visita es sólo exterior. El guía un encanto, muy atento y proporciona mucha información de lo que se va viendo, sin la cual la experiencia no sería tan interesante.

"Relax by the sea"

Marju was great explaining and answering our questions and looked after our needs as my wife has angina. There was just the two of us. This tour was recommended by another guide as it was very relaxing but took in lovely countryside and sea. Marju took us to a lovely cafe for lunch which was inexpensive but great choice and quality of food

"Fabulous Day!"

This was a lovely, well rounded tour. We are so glad we took it. The guide was lovely and very informative.

"Perfect Day!"

This is a perfect way to travel from Tallinn to Riga and actually get to see Estonia and Latvia instead of just watching them pass by through a window. Anna was knowledgeable and informative, always making sure questions were answered or thinking of conversation starters. She made sure everyone’s needs were taken care of and was very accommodating. The sites we visited were fun and interesting. We especially enjoyed the National Park and bobsled track. Lunch was delicious as well. I would highly recommend this trip for anyone wanting to get to know the culture and history of Estonia and Latvia.

"WOW!"

Kris (Kristin) picked us up across from the Tallinn tourist office promptly at 9:00 a.m. in a brand new van which held up to eight people. As there were only five of us in this van we were most comfortable. She clearly explained the agenda and sought our input as to whether we preferred an early or a late lunch and she continued to seek our input as to the timing of things depending on how we were feeling. Kris’ English is outstanding; she’s energetic, upbeat, extremely knowledgeable, clear, honest, funny and kind. We had a wonderful twelve hours with her. Total honesty here: we could have done without the military museum as it was a bit unsophisticated, and IF you have trouble going up and down stairs or hills, this tour may be too much for you. Ask if they have a less energetic tour as we walked about 4.4 miles, 11,347 steps and climbed the equivalent of 21 floors (gotta love the iPhone’s “Health” app!). We had time for an absolutely delicious, relaxed lunch where we learned more about each other and about Estonia and Latvia. We would have said the highlight of the tour were the walks around the two castles and environs —until Chris took us to the facility where Olympic teams practice for the bobsled. For some reason, walking this track where Olympic hopefuls and champions have worked was especially impressive. My husband and I strongly recommend this company and this tour; thank you Kris.

"Castles and cliffs in comfort."

My husband, daughter and I had a fantastic day with Robert on Friday, the weather was so warm but the aircon in the van and the bottles of water from Robert made the journey pleasant despite the heat. Robert was a knowledgable and charming guide and a most attentive host. He never made us feel hurried but still managed to stick to the plan as he brought us to the fabulous sites and gave us information and insight at each one. We also found him to be a steady and capable driver and we felt very safe on our journey. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend the tour and Robert as the guide. Thanks to all involved.

"Would absolutely recommend"

Laid-back, fun trip to Lahemaa NP, in which you get to see a lot of different environments/areas. For me perfect way to be in nature and get out of the city for a day.

"for the curious!"

I'm so glad I traveled from Tallinn to Riga with this tour! Being an introvert, I'm always a little nervous about anything that has the potential to trap me in a group. But the tour was amazing: perfectly planned and executed. We saw a lot, but weren't exhausted and definitely never bored. Our guide Andres was a font of knowledge and wry jokes about Baltic history (and kiiking!): he turned a fun day into a fascinating one.

"Travel with bonus botany lesson!"

The travel from Tallinn to Riga was pleasurable and educational. Our guide, Karolis, was informative about the history of the area( and he has masters degree in Biology). Overall the trip was comfortable and we saw the countryside. We were able to connect with few others on the trip and had fun for next 3 days in Riga.

"Naked monkeys & unicorns in the forest"

Great trip, guides (split group in two) very knowledgeable. OK so end of that. Personality of Andres was fantastic, really filled in the day both with humor and environmental/historical information in a lively manner. Gregor also gave his insights on Estonian life from a slightly different view- good team. The forest/ bog environment and the historical info was fascinating. Highly recommend this tour

"Most fun route from Tallinn to Riga"

My partner and I were so excited when we found this unique trip between Tallinn and Riga that it quickly became a focal of our trip. The communication during the booking process was fantastic. Our guide, Kristin, was a local Estonian. It was great to have her tell us about her country as we visited some really unique and a bit more off the beaten track sights (at least for foreign tourists). I can’t recommend this trip enough.

"Top Tour"

The tour was great. We had 4 or 5 stops, very interesting places and the tour guide was friendly and told us different things at the different stops. Highlight was our meal in a museum. Thank you for everything

"Terrific day outside the city!"

This was exactly the experience we were hoping for — a chance to see some interesting, beautiful, historic and quirky things in and about Estonia. The guide was great, the itinerary is smart and gave us exposure to a lot during the day. Absolutely worth it!

"A VERY LONG DAY OF TRANSPORTATION"

This was one of three options for getting to Riga. Although the day was long (12 hours) it seemed like a good way to see the countryside. The guide was very nice and showed a lot of national pride in the places we stopped. Although it was nice to stop and stretch our legs, the itinerary seemed a little dull. The military museum was tired and sad, and I could have skipped the stop at the bobsled run. The small village in Latvia was interesting and I would have liked more time there to explore. One of the best parts of the day was the place we stopped for lunch. The food was authentic and very delicious. The van was ok, although it was very "cozy" with other travelers space wise. All in all, I could have skipped the tour and just taken the Lux Bus to Riga in 4 hours. Maybe some folks like it better, but it just wasn't the best option for me.

"Great journey "

Learned so much about Estonia and Latvia from our guide while traveling through these beautiful countries.

"Seeing between the cities."

We enjoyed the day. The guide was knowledgeable about the places we visited, the complex history of these countries and various questions that we asked. We would recommend this as a good way to learn as you travel and to see things between the cities that you would not on a train or intercity bus.

"Day filled to the brim with amazing experiences!"

After a day or two in the Old City of Tallinn, it is good to see the other and more genuine side of Estonia - its nature and peacefulness. The day trip was truly enjoyable and the memories will stay for life! Even the bad weather could not stop anyone from enjoying the stroll through the Lahemaa's bog, forests, and shores. Combined with a friendly and knowledgeable guide, comfy car, and umbrellas waiting to save those who are less accustomed to pouring rain, there was nothing that could be better! Highly recommended to anyone who loves to step off the beaten track.

"Very Worth It!"

Mike was a fun tour guide and had a ton of knowledge about the history of the Baltics. He told a lot of jokes and even sang multiple times in Latvian for us. I was surprised at how quickly the 12 hour day went. All the stops were really interesting, with a good mix of city and nature, then concluding with a visit to the bobsled track. Some highlights of the day included going on a giant multi-person swing and learning the story of the Latvian "bear killer". This tour was a good chance for us to visit places that we wouldn't have had a chance to otherwise and we had a great time getting to know our fellow travellers. I would highly recommend this sightseeing tour bus, especially with Mike as your guide!

"Great day trip through Estonia & Latvia"

We really enjoyed this 12 hour bus trip from Tallinn to Riga! Would recommend to anyone traveling between the two cities. Interesting history, medieval towns and delicious lunch spot! Thanks for a great day!

"Warm, friendly, intelligent"

A great guide. Charming, pleasant, practical. Offered interesting comments,when asked, about larger socio-cultural patterns in Estonia as well as excellent short summaries from nature to history. A nice man. By chance a great, as well as diverse, group. PS Guide's name. I didn't take in. Thurs 24 to Laheema ...tall young man.

"Anna was great, Informative and fun, but trip was a bit too long"

Our guide Anna was great! Very informative and fun to talk to. Enjoyed the military museum and the lunch in Valga, and the walk down the bobsled track in Sigulda. We had no idea that swinging and wife-carrying were such big sports in Estonia (or anywhere)! Could have skipped the walk in Cesis and gotten to Riga a little sooner.

"Very nice tour experience"

We had a great time to discover the nature and also culture of Lahemaa region, our guide Katrin is very warm and knowledgeable person. Love this tour and definitely recommend this tour!

"Valuable and Enriching!"

Michael, our guide and driver, was enthusiastic and knowledgable. His love for his country is infectious. I learned a lot!

"A better way to commute"

This tour makes an interesting journey of what would otherwise be a mere destination. It takes in walks through crumbling ruins, across the eroded sandstone face of a river's edge (lots of steps), down a bob sled track and through pretty villages. My only suggestion for improvement is to stop at a coffee outlet between setting out and lunch. Our guide spoke good English, was helpful and kind, and was especially concerned to fill the disparate needs of members of the group at all times. This is a great way to travel between Riga and Tallin.

"An excellent day out"

This tour involves surprisingly little driving for a unique and varied experience. From viewing an 18th century manor house built on the fruits of serfdom and the timber, spirits and brick trade, to seeing the reemergence of the freedom to fish after Soviet times, we walked through a forest and an eerie bog, enjoying wildflowers along the way. All this was punctuated by a delicious home cooked meal where the owners have displayed memorabilia collected by their antecedents over many generations. Our guide was knowledgeable, accommodating, informative, communicative, helpful, empathic and had extraordinary competency in English as a second language. I found this tour to be an excellent day out and can unreservedly recommend it.

"Great Journey"

Our driver/guide was Eli who entertained us all the way. She was fun, chatty and knowledgeable and of course a good driver - we chatted the whole way to Riga!

"A nice stroll along the Coast"

With blue sky and warm spring weather we started our beautiful trip through the Laheema national park. Our guide Uku was very friendly and besides explaining the various sites we visited, he was even up to chatting about Estonia and answering every question we had. Its not everyday you get such a nice guide. We especially liked our little hike through the bog. Also worth mentioning was our meal at a local restaurant. Tasty meals and good prices. We would totaly recommend anyone to take this tour. See you hopefully again beautiful Estonia!

"The effective way to travel from Tallin to Riga"

The trip will have 8 persons in maximum in a big van. You can bring your big luggage together. Along the way you can visit an interesting place that it is difficult to visit by own (if you don’t drive) Guide is very friendly and she provides a good information on each place.

"Wonderful Tallin-Riga"

Nice alternative to taking boring regular bus trip. Best thing about the trip was our driver/guide Anna. Her knowledge and enthusiasm about the land and history she was taking us through was informative and inspiring.

"Fun and enjoyable"

Had a great start to the trip, our Guide, Mike, was very informative, sang some Latvian songs and happy to answer any questions we had. The drive itself was smooth. The lunch spot chosen was really nice.

"Very very good!!!!"

What can I say? A very nice guide! Fascinating places! The whole program went as we wanted !! An experience that I would gladly do again !! Difficult for me to choose the most beautiful place !!!! I still remember the fun on the big swing ;) the beauty of the castles, the charm of nature and the surprise of the bobsleigh track

"Beautiful and varied your with knowledgeable, passionate guide"

Would definitely recommend if you are visiting Estonia.

"The beat way to travel between Tallin and Riga"

A really good way to travel between Tallin and Riga. Not only do you get to your next destination but you get to see some small towns, countryside, museum and a bobdleigh track on the way. Andres was a great guide giving us some real insight into the history of both Estonia and Latvia on the way.

"History filled and personal tour"

Our tour guides, but especially Anna, were amazing!! Ana talked about so much culture and history about Estonia and Latvia that spanned 100 years to present day. She covered, sports, customs, hobbies, the world wars, independence, music and dancing and not a single moment of it was boring! She spoke with so much knowledge and pride in her country and both countries trials and triumphs. It was an unexpectedly good tour that really allowed me to get more out of what I was seeing. And to use a company like this is really the best way to travel because you are still seeing and experiencing while repositioning yourself. I will definitely be on the lookout for more tours like this while I visit other countries in Europe. And all the little places we visited and the food were all phenomenal. I enjoyed it all and both towns are beautiful.

"I'm so happy I did this!"

I never thought I could be so funny to go hiking with eight strangers from different countries. But I had an awesome day!! Andres was an amazing guide, told us a lot about everything and knew answers to nearly every question. We visited nearly everything I had on my personal list of places I wanted to see and I couldn't be happier about it. The lunch was really tasty too and I could also choose a vegetarian one which I really preferred because I don't like fish. There was plenty of time to discover every place we visited and when it was over after nine hours I felt like we just had started. I would definitely recommend and do it again!

"Great informative and relaxing tour"

We had a comfortable minibus ride and walked around the historic towns of Valga, Vaidava and Cesis, as well as visiting a small military museum and Helme castle ruin, and we also had a 1-hour walk in Gauja National Park. Lunch was in a pleasant hotel restaurant. Our guide was knowledgeable about the history and ecology of each place we visited and he gave a very interesting insight into his and his family's experiences of living in Latvia and the surrounding areas.

"A lovely day seeing more of Estonia"

The day was super-easy, relaxed and enjoyable. Our tour guide Andres was really informative and enthusiastic, and the day was well-organised and professional. Really recommend this company if you want to get out and about and see a bit more of this wonderful country!

"Tallin-to-Riga Roadtrip extrordinaire"

I'd heartily recommend the bus tour from Talliinn to Riga. The bus left right on time and the whole thing was executed very professionally. Marju, our tour guide, was knowledgeable and provided the group with interesting information about Tallinn, Riga, and points in between. She also was willing to answer any questions. We stopped at a very nice restaurant for lunch - meal was excellent. The stops at the various towns on the way were fun and informative - though I think the bobsled track could be eliminated from the tour. Recommended!

"Quality Day"

There was a lot of good information passed on and many things to see and understand. Just went over my photos and am happy with the results. Guide and guide helper were both down to earth and made sure we were gettng it. Both are obviously proud of their country and like showing it off.

"Great Way to Get from Tallinn to Riga"

Kert was an awesome tour guide. None of the stops were staggeringly impressive, but it was a fun day nonetheless. Lunch was amazing.

"Wonderful tour of National Park"

We had two guides for this tour who were both excellent and complementary. Got to see a lot on a perfect weather day. What a joy to be out of the city for a day. Had a delicious lunch at the maritime museum. Learned a lot. And they accommodated my mobility issues as well, so that I only skipped one walk later in the day.

"Tallin to Riga with Mike"

Nice trip with relaxing landscapes of northern lands. The guide Mikelis has been simply perfect: good driveer, nice singher, and excelent guide. The time spent during the trip an the stay has been very friendly and nice. Only the last stop in Cesis has been not so nice compared with the others

"Great day with Mike!"

We traveled from Tallinn to Riga with the sightseeing tour bus on April 25th. The pre-departure communication to confirm the reservation was very rapid: we were immediately informed as soon as the minimum number of participants was reached. We were just 4 so all the journey by van was very comfortable and pleasant. Mike was a great guide, entertaining us during the drive-time with anecdotes and curiosities but also assuring us nap-moments during longer transfers :) All the stop-overs were very interesting and has been great to see the passion and pride with which Mike told us the history of the Country and above all the conquest of independence. Everything were great, even if personally I'd liked to have more time to visit the sand cave with some additional explanation. I recommend for sure this tour, it's a good way to maximise the transfer from Tallinn to Riga, discovering and visiting places you probably wouldn't know otherwise. Thank you again Mike, you've been the icing on the cake of this tour :) kind, engaging, competent and passionate lead of the day!

"Tallin to Riga"

Excellent tour. Guide was great. Very knowledgable and funny. He gave us a better understanding of the history of the countries and their cultures. Lunch was excellent.Tour ran on time. Would recommend.

"A must for anyone who can"

What an incredibly enriching experience! Estonia is so much more than Tallinn, as this tour so expertly and entertainingly shows. We were graced with some good weather but I would have enjoyed this trip even in the pouring rain. We got to see Estonia’s tallest waterfall (I won’t spoil the height, but keep in mind that any waterfall is a miracle in the flat Baltics), the miraculous and ancient bogs, restored and unrestored manor houses, and some amazing coastal villages that shed light on life outside of the city both past and present. All was supplemented by the riveting and impossibly vast knowledge of Andres, whose expertise made this trip particularly special. I plan to return to Estonia to be able to experience more of these trips and see what else this magical country has to offer!

"Fun and informative "

The guide was knowledgeable on the history of Tallinn and Riga. Information was delivered in a funny relaxed manner. The day was incredible. Good mix of sights seen on the way. Highly recommend.

"Very interesting tour of a different part of Estonia "

Kerr did a great job showing us a lot near and around Narva. He explained the history well and as we were on a private tour he also adapted the schedule when we asked to visit an additional site. It was a great day!

"Excellent"

Very interesting tour, our guide was excellent and we went to many places. Would have liked to have a bit longer in Narva. It was a long day.

"See the diversity and beauty of Estonia!"

I had an absolutely amazing time on this tour! Booking was incredibly easy, then we headed out in a large and comfortable van. The group was small so our guide easily customized it to some of our interests. Having a guide for the abandoned Soviet sites is necessary - there is so much to see. Andres also knew the best spots to see the underwater prison from! I really highly recommend this tour to anyone with an interest in the Cold War, as well as a desire to see the ocean.

"Interesting"

Guide was excellent and took us to many places. She was very helpful and knowledgable. Unfortunately I can't remember her name.

"From old to modern history and from industrial heritage to nature."

I had an excellent tour guide Krislin. Her native town was Kohtla-Järve and she gave us a lot of information about this eastern part of Estonia. Many thanks! The tour is an excellent mixture of old (Toolse fortress, Narva castle+memorial of 1700 battle) and new history (WWII, Soviet era) together with industrial heritage (oil shale mining, Kreenholm factory). A contract of walking in a "ghost town" and in Sillamäe was unbelievable. The distance of 210 km gave me a perspective of a size of Estonia and of her fields and woods which we were passing.

"Road trip across baltics"

Good way of knowing the Baltics.comfortable travel with chequered halts.Good conversation n knowledgeable guide.

"Tour I had to cancel last year due flight problems"

Second time lucky taking this tour. Glad I made it this time. The whole day was interesting. Especially the walk through the wetlands and the sea museum. Our guide JJ was Personable and had good knowledge of Estonia. I particular liked the options and flexibility he offered.

"Beautiful walks through the bog and on the beaches"

This tour was a great way to see nature outside of Tallinn, both in terms of the walk through the bog and a couple visits to different parts of the coast, Jevgeni did a great job!

"Mandatory visit"

We discovered interesting historical places along with beautiful views of beaches, a cliff and a waterfall. The guide explained in a very clear way the history and the most important events of Estonia that are mandatory to get know if you travel to this region. I strongly recommend to take this tour if you travel to Tallin/Estonia.

"The Ruins of the Soviet Era "

I really enjoyed this tour. Andres was very knowledgeable about the different places we visited. He also took us to a part of an old Soviet base to see some specific he talked about. His perspective on the recent history of Estonia made the tour even more interesting. I would highly recommend this tour and Andres as a tour guide.

"Awesome unique tour"

Really liked this tour. You can see something of the country side of Estonia and Latvia, not only Tallinn and Riga. Our guide was also really knowlegdable about both countries and she kept up with the speed of the group. She did not try to hurry us. Communication beforehand was also really good.

"Eye-catching experience"

Spectacular tour just outside Tallinn. We visited the bogs (astonishing colors and landscapes), a waterfall, the forest and the seaside, with stops at a fisherman village and an historic palace. The guide was very knowledgeable and enjoyable, the walks easy and balanced. Strongly suggested!

"An unforgettable experience in Tallinn"

Buena organización, recogiendo los principales puntos fuertes del parque. Quizás eché de menos un poco más de senderismo a través del parque, pero para una jornada estuvo bien. El guía aporta mucho a la dinámica del grupo y la excursión.

"You need to do this !"

I enjoyed the trip very much, not just a boring road journey from Tallinn to Riga. Our guide Laura is hilarious, knowledgeable and fun to talk to. Highly recommend.

"A full immersion in nature and history"

The guide was very prepared and made us enjoy our tour! My advice is: do it because it's worth it!

"Cool coast"

Was a Great Tour with cool and top guide Marju and helps fromSigrid as we had to Drive in two Cars as a big Group! Russland Food was great. Helpfulminformation and a lot of History with Scenic coast interestings and surprising Spots ! Thanks for this experience!

"Excellent "

It’s not what I expected- it’s better! My guide is professional and enthusiastic so I learn so much about not just the park but also the history of Estonia. The lunch is also a surprise.

"Our guide found a 1905 family estate"

Mikelis had a pleasant personality, and spoke excellent English, so it was very nice to spend the whole day with him. We say some interesting sites in Estonia such as the medieval castle at Viljanis and were told about its history. We also got a good general impression of the Estonian countryside. The restaurant where we had lunch was very good. We had an interesting adventure in our family history during the 1905 revolution at an estate called Ulpisch. I had not been able to find it myself, but Mikelis knew the right web-sites to locate it and took us there! We were delighted and very impressed. The day was a resounding success and very enjoyable.

"Amazing"

A little bit expensive but it’s worth it! There are a lot of stops and every place of the tour is amazing.

"Perfect way to travel from Tallinn to Riga"

The trip became a private tour since it was just our group who was traveling that day. Our guide, Andres was very knowledgable. We skipped the Military Museum which was a downer but it wasn't their fault. It was Sunday and the museum was closed. All in all it was nice and a very good way to get to know the two countries. It was money well spent.

"One day in Lahemaa national park "

Wonderful day in the national park. We were lucky with the weather so we had the chance to enjoy even more this great experience. The guide was amazing. Very nice and funny taking time to share with us her knowledges of Estonia. I truly recommend this visit outside Tallinn. It gives the possibility to discover more this beautiful country

"Very entertaining and informative"

Andres was good company and his insight on the estonian way of life added a lot to the experience. The 50€ was totally worth it. The places we visited were inpiring, offered a lot of variety and the small size of the group helped to keep the stress level down. The day was very relaxing and rewarding in many ways.

"A great itinerary, enhanced by a fine day with blue sky, and an intelligent and good guide"

Marju took us on a tour of Haapsalu and West Coast. The weather was beautiful with blue sky and a brisk wind (Wrap off warm against the wind!) First stop was the rail station with abandoned Soviet trains, which was a reminder of the control and grandiose of the past, as well as the Soviet regime. We saw some lovely landscape at the North West of Estonia, and a picture postcard town of Haapsalu. There were some interesting medieval forts and ruins with ghost stories (The White Lady!) too. Marju took us to a fabulous cafe in Haapsalu for lunch. Here we were served the dish of the day and the loveliest cheesecake by a patient and friendly lady manager. We liked this tour - it was enhanced by Marju's personal experience of the Soviet, and her passion and interest in the state of the country and the EU. We thank you for a great Estonia experience!

"Great tour!"

Despite the cold and rainy weather this was a really fun and interesting tour. Haapsalu is beautiful.

"Great tour!"

The tour was very interesting and a lot of fun. Kert is an amazing guide.

"Bogland adventure with interesting insights"

There were four of us on this tour with Marju, a very knowledgeable and patient guide. We saw an amber waterfall at Jagala, enjoyed an unique hike through Lahemaa's bogland, an atmospheric old 'German' manor house, a typical seaside village with a 'pub' and swing, and visited a quirky maritime museum with a Soviet watchtower on the coast. Lunch was at a traditional pub serving typical food. All in all, it was a great day out seeing a great deal of this part of Estonia. Marju told us about its history, heritage and the natural landscape. Varied, interesting and full schedule....

"Amazing, Fun and Breathtaking....."

It was a really great day trip to unusual sights if that what you like! The coastal views, the prison, the waterfalls and ex Soviet history, it was all amazing and Kert's extensive knowledge of the areas and history was brilliant!! Pick up and drop off were timely and lovely stops for breaks too. Thank you!!

"Cold but nice and interesting - March '19"

:)

"Excellent way to see more of Estonia and Latvia - with added singing!"

We had an excellent time on this tour. The stops are well thought out and give you enough time to understand some of the history and cultural background of the two countries. The guide Mikelis was brilliant and kept up his energy and enthusiasm throughout the whole day, with added Latvian folk songs! Would definitely recommend this tour.

"Excellent guided tour"

We enjoyed a winter-Lahemaa very much. The guided tour was excellent and informative, not only about nature and scenery, but also historical and socio-cultural backgrounds.

"Awesome guide "

One of the best tours I have ever been in.

"Excellent tour great tour guide"

The tour was excellent. Puntual pick uo, good itinerary, great guide, amazing visits and good doors. What’s not to like? Short answer, nothing.

"Totally enjoyed the tour with the local guide"

Apart from able to visit and participate in the Viru Bogs at Lahemaa National Park, I get to understand and know more about Estonians and their way of life from a local tour guide, those information and stories are really interesting and priceless! The guide also brought us to a private museum which is a true sailor’s home, which makes the trip very personal and memorable! I would highly recommend this day tour!

"So beautiful, wish we got lost in the park"

Marju was a great guide and host; she has a fresh and positive energy and is very knowledgeable of Estonian history and culture. The sights visited were beautiful... a taste of Estonia beyond Tallinn, which makes you want to see more of this enchanted country.

"Great day out!"

We had a great day out with Jevgeni on the 26th December 2018. It was so lovely to see a range of landscapes in and around Laheema across the day, especially with someone who knows the way and is used to driving in the snow. Jevgeni was an entertaining and informative guide, and we especially enjoyed the stop at the kiiking swing and the amazing lunch at the Kasmu captain's cottage.

"Stunning Tour with Amazing Guide"

We had an amazing time on the tour. The day itself was perfectly balanced between the various activities/sights. Liine was an incredible guide. She was extremely knowledgeable, funny, and her stories about Estonian folk tales were really interesting. Would 100% recommend to anyone visiting Tallinn.

"Hermosa ruta"

Fui a Coastal Cliffs. Estaba frío pero había un lindo sol que nos permitió disfrutar de los acantilados y la cascada de Keila. La guía fue excelente, muy amable.

"Beautiful Winter Experience"

Our group was only made of four people incl. our guide. Kert is a jung very openminded guy. He had a lot of information and knew perfectly how to entertain our little group. The weather was just great. The sun was shining and we had warm temperatures. The melting waterfall, the hike through the wetlands and having a look to that quirky museum at the beach was just wonderful. I absolutely recommend you to do that tour!

"Perfect tour guide"

We joined the tour led by Liine on 6 Feb. She is so knowledgeable about the history of Estonia as well as many different jokes. We did enjoy and laugh very much! We went to Gadja National Park and saw the transquil and gorgeous scenic view of the Gadja River. We have been talking between ourselves that we were lucky and are so glad that we had made our trip through traveller.ee.

"Just book it already, and get your walking shoes ready!"

The winter version of this tour rocked! Petting a frozen waterfall, hiking through softly silent snowtopped pine tree forests, making our way through the mysterious bog, visiting a lovely small maritime museum with original owners running it and still getting a beautiful coastal sunset view of glacial rocks by the shore. I’m very happy to have taken this tour, super comfortable with good amount of hiking. Jevgeni is a great guide, very local, down to earth, openminded and keen to adjust according to the group’s needs and ideas. On top of that, good humour with good knowledge of all sorts of things. Thank you again! Don’t forget to bring cash for onsite food/snack purchases!

"Hiking in Snow"

Experience is good

"Great fun! "

Really lovely people to deal with and they were super helpful as it was a slow time of the year! This gives beautiful scenic views and aome very interesting history. The guides are young and vibrant and I have athritis in my foot so a bit slow and not qyite sure on my feet and our guide was brilliant and ever so helpful and understanding! Totally recommend

"Wonderful, Informative, Fun!"

My husband and I took the Laheema National Park daytrip. The first thing I liked about it was that it was a small group tour. We had six people all together, and the maximum per tour is eight. Our guide, Andreas, was very knowledgeable and personable. We got to see some lovely sights including the national park, manor homes, and the seaside. We ate lunch at the quirky maritime museum: fresh salmon, potatoes, brown bread, and apple cake prepared by the proprietors, who lived in the museum (we also got to meet their adorable dogs). I would recommend this tour to anybody.

"Really great day out"

Definitely worth taking this tour. Great day out. Guide was really knowledgeable and whole day was really informative. I went in winter but I would definitely do this tour again in summer to see another side to the park

"Lovely country, lovely guide"

Liked the walk in the National Park, the guide and the lunch and the waterfall Day was bit too long as went to other places didn't need to like a museum at the seaside

"Tour très sympa et paysage fabuleux"

Petit groupe de 7 personnes très sympathiques. Guide très compétente et très agréable. Un tour dépaysant et intéressant à ne pas manquer.

"An excellent way to explore a little bit of Estonia"

We took the tour on New Year's Eve with Andres as our guide. He was great & shared loads of interesting details about life in Estonia throughout the day. The lunch was delicious, the board walk was snowy & scenic and there was a lot of variety in this tour. I'd happily recommend it.

"Fascinating tour with a knowledgeable, friendly guide "

We booked this tour very much at the last minute, and we were so glad we did! There was only one other person on the tour, so it definitely didn't feel like too large a group. Jaan was absolutely lovely, and really knowledgeable – as well as being really patient in answering all of our questions. The highlights of the day for me were walking across the Viru bog, which was beautiful, and visiting the coast. Thank you so much for a wonderful tour!

"Bog walk"

The tour was great and well-run! Love the beautiful scenery of the forests. Being in a small group also means there's more interaction and flexibility. Thanks Andres!

"Fantastic Day Tour"

This was such an interesting and informative tour. As we were only in Tallinn for a few days we wanted a tour that would encompass as much as possible . This certainly did, we saw so much and learnt so much history from our guide who was so knowledgable. We had a wonderful time and was money well spent.

"A Wonderful Winter Tour from Tallinn to Riga"

I am glad that the tour size is small – 8 passengers. Everyone is seated comfortably in the vehicle. Andres, our driver cum guide, manages the timing well. The tour is in December and shorter day light hour in winter. Sights visitation is conducted in a good pace. We had some time to enjoy at each sights. Our tour starts around 9am. Enroute we visited Viljandi castle ruins, Teemapark Museum, Cesis, Sigulda and finally arrived Riga around 7.30pm. The best is when Andres told us we do have time to visit Sigulda bobsleigh and luge track. We are overjoyed. As we have never seen a bobsleigh before. Overall it is a well conducted tour. I really enjoyed the tour even though it is long hours of travelling. I think it is a great way to travel from Tallinn to Riga with breaks in between for sightseeing. Thanks Andres for a wonderful winter sightseeing experience from Malaysian group of four.

"Great way to see Estonia "

We had a great day with Kert and especially enjoyed the abandoned town, which looked great in the snow! It's a long day but there's plenty to see and it's an excellent way to see a bit more of the country outside Tallinn. Kert was a nice guy and a great driver too!

"Beauty "

Anna was great and explained all about the tour

"Best way to get from Tallinn to Riga"

The most fun you can have traveling from Tallinn to Riga. Our guide Andres was fantastic, not only was he very amusing but his knowledge of the local history was excellent. As a tourist I find it very good to get an understanding of the local culture and history. This tour gave you both in spades. Thank you Andres for an excellent tour.

"Unforgettable experience "

The guide took us to Estonia biggest waterfall and then to the magic Lahemaa National Park. After a typical Estonian lunch we visited a Manor House and a fishing village by the sea, with a very interesting stop at Kasmu museum. Andres was very passionate and knowledgeable and made our day in nature an unforgettable one.

"Not to be missed!"

Wonderful experience of the Estonian countryside and heritage with very joyful and knowledgeable guide (Jevgeni)!

"Fun Riga bus trip"

Great way to get from Tallinn to Riga. Tour guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining. Nice to stop and look at some places along the way. Would definitely recommend!

"The trip was very beautiful and complete."

We saw a lot of things that we can't see without your trip. We saw a part of Estonian land different from Tallinn. Our guide Marju was great and very professional, she told us a lot of things about history, people and tradition of Estonian country. We also had a very good lunch in a very beautiful small restaurant in Haapsalu. Congratulations for your organisation of the trip and for the best guide MARJU!!!! I'll suggest TRAVELLER.EE to all my friends that will come in Tallinn.

"Great day discovering Estonia and Latvia"

Our journey started at 9 o'clock without any problems. I was curious about Estonian culture&way of life and Liine answered all my question with such interest. She was a great guide during all our tour. I'm glad that I choose this tour instead of a classic way to link these two capitals. I highly recommend Traveller tours and Liine ! Best regards,

"Terrific Tour at Lahemaa Park"

This really was a terrific tour through some of the highlights of the Lahemaa National Park. Marju was a brilliant guide - knowledgeable and funny, and all of the stops were really interesting - a welcomed break from the streets of Tallinn. Would strongly recommend - particularly the option of a delicious lunch at the Fishing Village museum. The highlight of our trip to Estonia - thank you so much - particularly to Marju! Diolch!

"Cool experience"

The national park was unique and intriguing. Helpful and friendly tour guide, who offered interesting information about the park. Very good lunch. Nice experience.

"Great trip to interesting historian places!"

As an expert in History, Marju could tell us a lot about old Estonia in general and about all the places we visited: the former Sovjet military town Paldiski, the ruins of the old monastery in Padise, the Sovjet transport airplane and the Murru prison quarry. We also got a lot of fun information about Estonians. An absolut fantastic tour!

"Great nature close to Tallinn!"

A great trip if you want to see something of Estonias countryside! Nice stop at the Jägala waterfall (the biggest waterfall in Estonia), walking through the Viru bog and the wetlands, hike along the coast in Altja and an interesting stop at Käsmu village with the private maritime Museum. We learned a lot about the country and its people from our guide.

"Lahemaa National Park - awesome!"

We had the awesome JJ take us around the beautiful Lahemaa National Park. Everything about the tour was great - from the two walks along the coast and the bog, to the delicious lunch and manor houses. JJ was a fantastic guide - knowledgeable, funny and attentive. If you were to do one tour in Estonia, it has to be this!

"Beautiful Getaway"

It was great to see all the outdoor beauty that exists in Estonia. Plus you learn about the local nature and a bit of history about the country.

"Very efficient use of time"

The trip gave an overview of Estonian landscape and history, mainly from the Soviet domination times

"Nice overview about Estonia and Latvia"

It was a great tour with four stops in Estonia and Latvia. The fifth stop in Sigulda will not be done off-season. Nevertheless, we saw beautiful cities and landscapes. The guide Anna was very kind and told us a lot about the history and today's life in the Baltics.

"Wonderful experience"

I planned most of my trip based on the Tallinn-Riga sightseeing tour bus and it didnt disappoint. It has been the best part of my trip so far, the minivan makes it easy to talk to the guide/driver and your travel companions. Anna, our fantastic guide, has been simply wonderful, easygoing, funny and always ready to answer all our questions. She showed us places that i would have never visited on my own whilst explaining to us both everyday life in Estonia/Latvia and also their history and heritage. We had a lot of fun, an amazing lunch and an unforgettable road trip. She made such a long trip fun, easy and relevant. I cannot recommend her enough!! You have to experience it, you wont regret it!

"Informative and entertaining, despite the rain!"

Though Tallinn is absolutely lovely, I was eager to experience some of Estonia's famous nature! This day trip to Lahemaa National Park did the trick! Although it was chilly and rainy, our little group still had a great time. The bog walk is absolutely beautiful, and our other stops provided a diverse set of experiences and views. Plus, Andres was a knowledgeable, friendly, and funny guide. It was a great trip, and I'll happily take another day trip with Traveller if and when (!) I return to Estonia.

"A great way to travel between Tallinn and Riga"

We were a group of 7 people from different countries on the day trip from Tallinn to Riga. Our driver/guide was Liine. She was so interesting, very knowledgeable and passionate about history, and had a wonderful sense of humour. She really did make the day, although a long one, a great one. She was very happy to answer questions about her country from us, and the trip was great. We would highly recommend this trip as a great way to travel between Tallinn and Riga, see some of both countries along the way, and learn a lot about the history and culture of the countries. A great job, Liine.

"Highly recommended, no doubt"

Our guider knows what she is doing. The most she enjoy, that is where come the natural as a guider. The trip was fantastic and we really enjoy it. Just the day was not really on our site, raining most of day.

"Very dedicated tourguide"

Hindrek told a lot about the sightseeing, but also about Estiona itselfs. Hindrek told it on a very interesting way and was very well known en could almost give answer to all our questions. He told us also al lot about the history of Estiona and the Estonia society. Thank you for the very good tourguide!

"Totally Awesome!!!"

I would recommend this tour to anyone that wants to have a great time! Mikelus is absolutely fabulous! Our guide was very knowledgeable and easy going. He is also a very talented singer. We visited castle remnants, a national forest, had a great lunch at a wonderful local restaurant. I would give this tour 10 stars if I could.

"Awsome Tour! Best way to travel between Riga and Tallinn!"

This tour was amazing, one of the best ones I have been on and I can recommend it to anyone who needs to get from one city to another. The stops are very interesting, the tour guide was very nice and motivated and our group (we were 6 people) was cool too. You get to know interesting people while sightseeing and traveling from A to B. Water is included as well.

"Go on this tour "

Led Bythe wonderful, passionate and interesting Anna, this was great way to travel from Tallin to Riga. Visit Medieval sites, remnants of the Soviet occupation anda bobsled tack. The surprising delight for me was a walk in the Latvin forest. The stu of fairytales. Learnt so much about the interesting history of this region.

"The best way to Go from Tallin to Riga"

You would like that the tour does not finish. Excellent service.

"A fantastic trip from Tallinn to Riga!"

We had a fantastic time during this trip from Tallinn to Riga. The guide, Mikelis, was super fun and also a true professionist. He knew very well everything about the places he showed us. He made us feel very comfortable. Anyone who has to travel from Tallinn to Riga (or viceversa) should go on this trip, instead of taking a normal bus trip, because it's really worth the time spent and the money.

"Not only a travel from Tallinn to Riga"

5 stops, each different, well picked up and very interesting. If you can see the nature, historical towns or some Soviet era past, I can fully recommend. Our gide Karolis from Lituania gave the tour a real "all-Baltic" spirit, also with his knowledge and good humour.

"Great day, great nature and great guides! "

This was a really nice trip through a fantastic nature park, forest and along the sea. It's a must. Group of 12 with 2 guides.

"Fun way to see the countryside"

The tour was fun and the guide was very good. The only part that I found un interesting and not important enough was the visit to the Bump Cars. It made the day too long, I don't think it was worthed.

"Such a beauty of nature out there"

So peaceful out there and i really enjoyed to escape the city. Wish I could stay longer. Thanx to Andres for making this day so amazing with his lovely episodes about the estonien und their beautiful nature and traditions. All the best and keeps it up!

"great way to travel from Riga to Tallinn or vice versa"

our tour guide was terrific: she was charming, full of information, loved her job, and always smiling and proud

"Spen a day exploring and arrive in Riga."

This is a great way to combine the practicality of getting somewhere with some sightseeing. Our driver/guide, Mike, made the day fun and interesting. The trip takes you through the countryside to places you wouldn’t be able to go to unless you had a car. Mike told us many historical facts as well as some local folk stories. All vey interesting and informative. The small size of the group meant everyone could ask and contribute.

"Great to explore"

We took the Tallinn to Riga tour, and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Great to meet fellow travellers taking the same Baltic tour as us. Our guide was informative at the stops, and answered any questions professionally. The only reason for a four star is we would have liked a little more commentary whilst driving through different areas, and would have been nice to have had more of a group introduction before the tour started as I have no idea of anyone's names!. Would highly recommended the tour and the company regardless though.

"An excellent tour! "

I had never been to Estonia and knew very little about its history, so this tour was incredibly interesting. The pick-up spot is very conveniently located near the town square, and the mini-bus that was used was very comfortable despite being completely full! The sea cliffs and the waterfall/park were beautiful. The various stops that highlighted the Soviet history of the country were incredible, as well - especially the old Soviet base that had been abandoned in the early 90s. I'm so glad I found this tour online - I really think it was a unique trip that most people who are visiting Tallinn for a short period wouldn't get to experience. I highly recommend!

"From Estonian coast to a Russian history."

The tour is a very good mix of Estonian nature (cliffs) and history (ruins of a monastery) as well as a distant Russian past (Peter the Great) and not so distant (ruins of a Russian air-missile base, an Antonov cargo plane).

"Really nice way to get from Tallinn to Riga"

It is a really nice way to get from Tallinn to Riga. During the trip, you will be visiting a couple of cities on the countryside. At each city you will get a really detailed historical lesson from your guide while wandering around the nice places which is really enjoyable. Our guide even introduced some original Latvian songs to us. I really recommend this trip to you if you want to see the countryside and not only the capital cities of the Baltic area.

"Thorough, informative and friendly"

I booked this tour so that t could experience a bit more of Estonia outside of Tallinn. We were driven to the park and saw some beautiful examples of nature. Our guide was friendly and very knowledgeable and she made everyone welcome. I would certainly recommend this experience.

"great day tour to see more of Estonia and Latvia"

The tour was easy to book, but the process lacked a bit of information such as the starting and ending points, I had to enquire about these after my booking had been confirmed. We waited for the tour at the arranged meeting point and the minibus turned up on time. The guide was a good driver and the bus in good condition. The tour is really enjoyable and you get to see and learn about parts of the country you would not necessarily go to. Walking down the bob sleigh run was great and also visiting the national park for a forest walk to the river. Although the tour was nearly 12 hours long it didn't seem like it, the stops were well placed out during the day and the lunch stop was at a very good reasonably priced restaurant. The website showed lots of young people on this tour and we thought at the age of 60 we might be a bit out of the tours usual demographic, but it wasn't a problem, this tour is suitable for any age.

"Fantastic Tour"

Had a great tour guide who loved to sing.

"Amazing tour for natural and country view."

It not only for national park touring, but also could see more northern estonian contry side view. The guild was professional, they would like to share many things about Estonia.

"Amazing tour for natural and country view."

It not only for national park touring, but also could see more northern estonian contry side view. The guild was professional, they would like to share many things about Estonia.

"Best tour I’ve been on!"

This tour definitely exceeded my expectations. We had a great group of fellow travellers, and our guide Mike was amazing. Every place we stopped at, he had such a great knowledge of the history of the area, and he sang Latvian folk songs so well! My favourite parts were the National Park (stunning, where we learned a lot about Latvian nature and folklore), and the military museum (where we learned about the horrors the Baltic states faced during the 20th century, but also the resilience of the Baltic people to overcome and look to the future). The food at the lunch spot was delicious too! My only regret is I didn’t have time to book more tours with this company (especially the one to Vilnius), but there’s always next time!

"Fun and informative "

A fun and interesting day out in Lahemaa National park. Our guide Andres took us to Estonia’s largest waterfalls, an old manor house, a few fishing villages and on a walk across a bog. Throughout the tour we learned a lot about Estonian culture and history as well as details about how traditional houses were built and the local flora and fauna. We stopped for lunch at a homestead that claims to make the best smoked fish in the world - I am inclined to agree! All in all a fun day out that just flew by and excellent value for money.

"Mikelis is the best :)"

We had such a good time on our tour. Mike made it educational and fun.

"Great day trip"

It was very interesting to visit the national park. The trip was well organized, informative and fun. I believe it was such a great trip due to our guide Liine. She was extremely knowledgeable and informative. However, she should get six stars for her wonderful personality and outstanding sense of humor. She made our day absolutely awesome! Thank you Liine!!!!

"Great way to travel between Tallinn and Riga"

We were lucky with the weather and we had an excellent day

"A unique opportunity to get out of town"

This day trip provides a unique opportunity to see a very important side of Estonian life and countryside. Loved the fact that the group was small and we could have a more intimate experience with the environment and people. Andres was an engaging and very knowledgeable guide. Highlights for me were the bog walk and lunch.

"Great way to see more of the countries"

This was a great way to see more of each country and get a fuller experience in the baltics. The stops were an interesting mix. Lunch was good. The tour guide could have had a bit more energy and volunteered more interesting facts during lunch and on the drive, but he did a good job and the different stops. Overall I'd highly recommend the experience to others.

"Spend Your Most Interesting Day in Estonia on This Tour"

Excellent full day tour (10 AM to 7 PM) to Lahemaa National Park that I would highly recommend for adults of all ages. Groups of 8 participants were self-formed for each van (there were 3 vans total the day of my tour) which had its own guide. There was a variety of activities which included visiting an historic manor house, hiking along the Bay of Finland and adjoining forest, visiting the highest waterfall in Estonia (height hint: remember that Estonia is basically flat), walking through the bogs on wooden planks, participating in a thrilling group swing, and enjoying a group lunch (additional cost) of salmon within the Park. Liine was the most amazing guide. She was extremely knowledgeable, funny, and enthusiastic. I asked her many questions regarding events in Estonia's history and all of her responses were thoughtful and comprehensive. I learned so much about Estonia as well as about the National Park from Liine's detailed responses to my questions. The sites visited on this tour along with the information and humor provided by our guide Liine were for me the highlights of my 5 days spent in Estonia.

"Western coast & Haapsalu"

Thank you Marju. Because of your passion we have learned so much of the history of your country. It was an excellent day in your company.

"Great tour with great Guide"

Hindrek was a calm guide but extremely knowledgable and able to bring the history (and political landscape) of Estonia in a very vivid way to the tourists. Enjoyed it a lot

"Amazing view with an amazing guide!"

We took a private tour asking to make it shorter. Our guide was so flexible and checked with our preference. He also provided detailed chats on Estonian history. We highly recommend the tour.

"The best way to get from Tallinn to Riga "

We took a mini bus tour from Tallinn to Riga with a maximum of 8 passengers. It was a fun way to get to our destination. We got to stop at various sights along the way. Our driver/guide Michael was really knowledgeable and provided us with a lot of information. He was also a very safe driver. I would recommend.

"Excellent tour organisé pour découvrir les environs de Tallinn sans trop d'organisation!"

Je recommande vivement de choisir Traveller.ee pour visiter le parc national de Lahemaa. Cela permet de visiter plusieurs lieux connus à l'aide d'un guide qui nous emmène rapidement d'un site vers l'autre. J'étais avec Marju qui est une excellente guide. Ce jour nous sommes sorties à 3 mini bus de 8 personnes avec 2 autres guides également très sympathiques. Ce fût vraiment très intéressant de pouvoir s'appuyer sur la compétence de ces guides plutôt que tout rechercher par soi-même et risquer de manquer des informations ou histoires utiles. Pour 13€ vous déjeunerez aussi dans le musée des pêcheurs de Käsmu si vous en avez la chance. Le repas est préparé par la famille du propriétaire et est vraiment excellent. Je recommande vivement cette journée et reviendrai probablement lors de mon prochain séjour en Estonie!

"Unbelievably fantastic"

I think our guides name was Katrin? She was awesome. The most thoroughly informative tour guide in the world!!

"Great time, fantastic guide"

We loved the drive and many if the stops. Lunch was amazing. My only suggestion is that 12 hours was long, one less stop and have it finish an hour earlier and it would have been perfect.

"Fantastic day!"

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour day. The van was comfortable, the sights beautiful and best of all, our guide was knowledgable, interesting and a had great sense of humor. Highly recommended!

"Great way to travel from Tallinn to Riga"

We had a fun day mixing with other travellers and learning about the history of Estonia and Latvia from our guide Marju. Enjoyed seeing the countryside away from Tallinn and having some time in nature. For us the Military museum in Valga was very dated and not to our interest so we would have preferred more time to walk in Cesis and Viljandi, but overall the day was good.

"Loved the insights shared by Mikelis"

I had limited time so it was the best way to cover more places. Also unlike other group tours, this is in a smaller group which helped to have more personal connect. Guide had lots of interesting stories to share and ensured that no one is getting bored. Lunch place was also a very well chosen one.

"A great way to get from Tallinn to Riga"

If you are wanting to see and learn about life and history outside of the big cities in Estonia and Latvia then this tour bus is a great way to do it. We stopped in a number of villages, national parks and museums and Marju our driver and guide was fantastic with her broad knowledge and insights into life in this part of the world. Is only up to 8 passengers on the tour so easy to ask questions and we met some great fellow travellers from around the world. Highly recommended.

"Estonia on a platter! "

I joined the Lahemaa Park tour in September. We enjoyed lovely weather and our enthusiastic guide Jevgeni gave us an excellent outlook on Estonian history, how Estonia became what it is today. We visited manor houses, a lovely village and had a beautiful walk through Viru bog. Autumn yellows showed in the bog grasses and reflected in the water, together with a blue sky. It was a great day out!

"Best way to travel between these two capitals"

My husband and I traveled between Tallinn and Riga spending a day stopping at interesting destinations. We had a very small group which was great for us because we were able to interact more with our guide. By sheer coincidence at one of our stops (a palace and gardens), we were able to see an opulent wedding. Great way to learn Estonian and Latvian history while traveling between these two small countries!

"Trip back in time to the Soviet era"

This was a very interesting tour, looking back at life in Soviet times and how it has changed. Liine, our guide was very knowledgeable and we learnt so much about the past. Being able to stare into Russia from the very interesting Narva castle was a memorable experience. The trip is long but we stopped regularly in various places, where Liine explained their significant stories.

"Highly recommended!"

Best day tour I ever had to the Lahemaa National Park! Super fun and our guide Liine was super duper informative and fun! Thanks for the wonderful one day we had in Tallinn!

"Would do it again!"

Great way to get from Tallin to Riga. Andres is a perfect guide and a great driver. Stopped at lovely places and met nice folk on trip. Lunch was excellent.

"Cool Coastal Cliffs Tour with Laura T"

Laura was as enthusiastic as she was knowledgeable about all things Estonia! She took us to beautiful scenic views along the Baltic Sea, the lovely old manor houses, the monastic ruins and many other must-sees. The hike in Keila Vald along the waterfalls was a lovely break from the drive; Laura included a brief history lesson. She also included a few local offbeat places like an old Russian bunker and cargo plane, now used as a meeting place for the local teen flying club. With Laura’s expertise and great driving, it was a very enjoyable day well-spent!

"Lahemaa swinging...!"

We loved being taken through Lahemaa National Park by Hindrek (partly shared talking with Jevgeni who was also great pleasure!). We couldn’t imagine a more knowledgeable and fun guide to be with. We saw manors and villages, beautiful and quiet beaches and forests, we walked the bug and heard about Estonian history both in an informative and enjoyable way. To be recommended!!

"Interesting, informative, and fun excursion."

Our guide was Hindrek and he was tremendous. He was highly informed about each area we visited, he had detailed answers to all of our questions, and he worked hard to make sure that we enjoyed our trip. He took the time to explain the region to us and he was never in a rush. The trip lasted longer than planned because he let us enjoy each site visit as long as we wished.

"Relaxing n scenic"

Good 12 hrs day trip from Tallinn to Riga seeing the country side and with a good friendly guide cum driver.

"Go beyond the city!"

This was a great way of exploring the sights and cultural history of Estonia beyond the city walls. A whirlwind trip through the countryside including old manor houses, waterfall, the bog boardwalk and hidden beaches. Lunch was excellent at the captains village, sitting in the family's dining room full of heritage and atmosphere. Thanks to Katherine our guide who made the day a great success and I left Estonia promising to come back for longer next time!

"Beautiful countryside "

Andreas picked us up from our accommodations in Tallinn. We drove NW and visited a beach, coastal cliffs, a waterfall, a lighthouse, an abandoned prison, an abandoned monastery, and viewed a number of manor houses. And finally we visited an old Soviet cargo ship sitting in a field! Andreas provided much historical information and answered our questions, including a request to explain the political environment. Very enjoyable tour.

"Excellent tour"

This tour took us to a lot of places in the National Park. We saw everything that was advertised, which made us very happy. Our tour guide knew very much about the area, but also about Estonia in general. She even shared personal experiences of living in Estonia, which gave us a nice idea about growing up there. We were impressed with her knowledge! And she was able to deliver it in an interesting, humorous way, which was great. Would definitely recommend it!

"Good value"

Tour guide was punctual, friendly and entertaining. The tour is probably too long for the sights to be seen. The commentary was well researched and his pride in Latvia obvious. Excellent value for the money. The choice for lunch was excellent. However, we were somewhat dismayed by his manner at the trip end in Riga, just shrugging his shoulders when asked where our hotel was situated. It is the oldest hotel in Riga, his home, and a few minutes from drop off.

"fun and educational"

Karolis was a great guide who clearly enjoys his job. It was great seeing so many sites between Tallinn and Riga that I wouldn't make it to otherwise.

"Best way of spending time and money getting from Tallinn to Riga"

Intially I was going to take the train until I stumbled on this trip. I am so glad I did this. Do not let the 12 hours duration put you off. The pace was surprisingly relaxing and time flew by. The stops were well spaced out and it was good to stretch the legs from time to time. There were many options for lunch and it was delicious. Lunch was pre-ordered before we arrived so that kept us on schedule. Karolis was entertaining and knowledgeable. Our trip was slightly less than 12 hours but I didn't mind as Karolis picked up on the collective vibe of tiredness in our group of 6. He added his own personal touch which make it memorable.

"Awesome"

It was the perfect tour, taking me from Tallinn to Riga and visiting sights in between. My guide was super friendly and informative and the group was fun to converse with.

"I'd totally recommend it!"

Everything was great right from the start. I had some problems during the booking process but Janne and Heleene helped me a lot. Our guide, Hindrek, led us to many places and he was always ready to answer our questions. He talked about Estonian history, language, food and many other things. The bogs were my favourite part of the tour. The food was also delicious :)

"Amazing time with a very knowledgeable guide!"

Highly recommend this trip, a great way to get from Tallinn to Riga. Andres, our driver and guide was fantastic and the other 6 people on our trip were very nice. We got to see places we would never have seen, it was very enjoyable..

"Outstanding option for travelling between Tallin and Riga"

On a short visit to Estonia and Latvia this is a fabulous way to see a bit more of the country side and towns in between. We also appreciated the opportunity of some nature walks and and excelkent lunch. Our guide Andreas was very good indeed giving us a framework of the Estonian history. We are looking forward to our journey with the group from Riga to Vilnius tomorrow.

"The wild northeast of Estonia"

Great solo tour with Kert to the northeast of Estonia. A fascinating day of history both ancient and recent in a beautiful part of Europe. So much to see and do in a land of contrasts. Expect your preconceptions to be challenged, and enjoy a fun day out. Kert is an exceptional guide - knowledgeable, witty, accommodating and fun.
