From Medieval, Through Soviet, to an IT-Capital
Throughout the centuries, Tallinn has played an important role - sometimes local, other times regional, occasionally even global. The city is littered with reminders of various centuries, from medieval walls and halls to Baroque and Classicist palaces, from early-Estonian architecture and communist era apartment block to ultra-modern designs. It is a location well worth discovering.

Kadriorg Park
Commissioned by the Russian emperor Peter the Great, Kadriorg park has been drawing visitors for over three centuries. At the heart of the park lies the summer palace of Peter the Great, now a museum of foreign art.
Song Festival Grounds
Once every five years, the Estonian Song festival takes place at this location. But for many locals, it is a truly hallowed ground, as it is the heart and main symbol of the Singing Revolution - an event which helped Estonia regain it's independence from Soviet occupation in 1991.
The Soviet Side
Our bus tours will take us through areas of Lasnamäe - a Soviet era neighbourhood in Tallinn. It is a great place to discuss Estonia's Soviet past, life during that era and how things have changed since that point.
Pirita
East on Tallinn's city center lies Pirita, a coastal settlement which offers great views of Tallinn's skyline.
Upper Old Town
For centuries home to nobles of German, Danish, Swedish, Russian and occasionally even Estonian descent, the Upper Town was and remains the seat of power in Estonia. With history dating back around 800 years, learn of the Baltic Germans and other nobles who called it their home.
Lower Old Town
German merchants, Danish craftsmen, Jewish bakers, Estonian builders, Russian diplomats and many other have contributed to rich history, culture and architecture of the Lower Town. See their homes, hear tales of their deed and life in the city in general. With large main roads and tiny winding side-streets, the Lower Town has many secrets and offers something for everyone.
