Tallinn
Tallinn has been rapidly modernising and expanding since the overthrow of Communism in 1988 and joining the EU in 2004. This dynamic, thriving city is keen to adopt a modern European lifestyle, and has all the amenities you would expect. Tallinn is justly proud of the remarkable preservation of its medieval heritage and this is celebrated throughout the city.

Things to do
Wherever our airport transfer may have taken you, there is sure to be loads to do nearby. The medieval centre of Tallinn is a World Heritage sight and as you wander the maze of narrow, winding, cobblestone alleyways you are transported back to the Middle Ages. Reminders of the Soviet occupation can be found throughout the city, or you can visit the Song Festival Grounds where the ‘singing revolution’ took place.
