Tallinn Travel Guide

Things to do in Tallinn

A city steeped in history and a rich cultural heritage, Tallinn is a sightseer''s paradise and a great place to explore on foot or by bus. Dubbed ''mini Prague'', the beautiful cobble-stoned streets of the Old Town are the perfect place to start your discovery of the city. Featuring old buildings and churches, such as Alexander Nevsky Cathedra and St Olav''s, the tallest church in Medieval Europe, travellers will love the enchanting feel of the town. Stroll through the Estonian Open Air Museum, take the kids to the Tallinn Zoo for the day, or pack a picnic and enjoy a day out at the Botanical Gardens.
