6 days in Tallinn Itinerary

A historic city with its eye firmly on the future, Tallinn blends medieval fortifications, gleaming skyscrapers, and charming boutiques with a spattering of Soviet relics.

Deepen your sense of the past at sights like Toompea Hill and Town Hall Pharmacy. Step out of Tallinn to go to Tartu and see Tartu Old City, which is approximately 2h 45 min away. The adventure continues: take in the spiritual surroundings of Aleksander Nevski Katedraali, see the interesting displays at Lennusadam Seaplane Harbour, don't miss a visit to Peapiiskopi Kirik, and wander the streets of Tallinn Old Town.
