Tallinn, Estonia

Leisurely Tallinn Old Town Walk

Explore Historic Medieval Town Get to know one of the finest medieval Old Towns of Northern Europe on a leisurely walking tour with a local guide. Meet your guide and drive to Tallinn’s Lower Town to explore a web of buildings and narrow streets that were constructed between the 13th- and 16th-centuries. Craftspeople and merchants were the residents of this former Hanseatic League city, and their influence is still evident in its guild houses, homes and warehouses. Stroll through historic streets to marvel at St. Olaf’s Church, once one of the tallest buildings in the world. Pass the Great Guild Hall, White Bread Passage, the Town Council’s Apothecary and the Town Hall before reaching the Katariina Passage, a time capsule of medieval charm. Wander down this cobblestone street to admire its stone homes and archways and catch a glimpse of Estonian artisans hard at work, making leather crafts, ceramics and jewelry. * Moderate - Walking portions may be long and somewhat challenging with occasional step-ups, stairs and inclines. Total time walking or standing normally ranges from 1.5 to 3 hours.
