Highly recommend this tour while in Estonia so that one is able to go beyond the incredible Old Town and see the natural beauty that Estonia has. As well as the Baltic Sea! Helena was our guide, and she was great! Friendly, knowledgeable, engaging, I felt like I had a friend for the day that told me all about Estonia, Estonians, and what it’s like to live in Tallinn. Our time at a unique waterfall and through a bog walk in the forest was beautiful and unique, but it was made interesting by the conversation with Helena, and her knowledge of botany, history, and her culture. Even down to her choice for a special lunch, Helena made me feel like I’ll be leaving Estonia a wiser, more informed, person. I’ll also note I had a lot of trouble in planning my trip to Tallin in regards to solidifying tours and private transportation. Several tours would not provide confirmation if only one or two people were booking, requiring four people to confirm a reservation. Prangli Travel confirmed the day before (and there were only two of us) so their ability to provide this tour really enriched my experience in Estonia. Very appreciated!!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our day trip to Laheema National Park, which was greatly enhanced by our fantastic guide Christo. His knowledge, stories and sense of humour made the whole day so much fun. Being a local man who knew so much about the nature of the area and gave us fascinating facts everywhere we went was so interesting. The Jagala waterfalls were spectacular, part frozen and the Sagadi Manor House was fascinating, making me feel as if I was in War & Peace, and all just the right length of time at each stop. The Viru Bog walk was also great and we enjoyed seeing something a bit different. The beach at Altja was amazing, all covered in snow and we did enjoy seeing the coastal area. The lunch stop was also a highlight - delicious food and the hearty soups certainly warmed us up on a cold day. We felt very welcome in the local restaurant. All in all I would not only highly recommend this fabulous tour, a great day out and well worth the price, but if you have the opportunity you should ask for Christo as he just made it the perfect day for us. Thank you Christo - we so enjoyed your company.

We had a great trip with Andreas who was a fantastic guide, such beautiful scenery in the snow! We had a great meal at O kõrts restauraunt, we tried the mulgipuder on the recommendation of Andreas, absolutely delicious and a good portion size at a cheap price

Andreas, our guide is very knowledgeable and accommodating. The waterfalls, the Viru Bog Natural Trail (I think this is the only one in the world where you can see this) and all the sites we went to were great.
