Additional Information

Embark on this gastronomic journey as you explore Estonian cuisine, a unique blend of Nordic influences, hints of Russia, and a dash of German. The experience involves about seven culinary pit stops intermingled with leisurely walks around the city centre and old town. Some of the highlights include a medieval-themed tavern, a native cafe, a chocolate museum and shop, a traditional Estonian restaurant, an ancient pharmacy, and the Baltic Station Market. Keep in mind that the food and drink offerings at each stop may change according to the season. For travelers arriving on cruise ships, the tour offers round-trip transportation from Tallinn Cruise Port to the old town.

Beautiful Tour From Cruise Ship Terminal - Amazing food. So convenient from where our Holland America ship docked. Paul was a phenomenal tour guide. Hands down worth the excursion.

Great experience! - Amazing tour! Best way to see the city and experience the local culture. We joined from a cruise ship so our time was limited in the city. Our guide, Paul, was very knowledgeable and ensured we got the most out of our experience. Plenty of food, have a light breakfast! Highly recommended!

Loved This Tour! - My husband and I and two other people (so basically a private tour!) did this tour a couple days ago and it was fantastic! I cannot say enough good things about our guide, Ruth. She told us so much about the history, culture and food of Estonia. We sampled five different things at five different places. They were all delicious, the portions were generous, and the restaurants were all very cute and quaint places. Would definitely recommend this tour!
