UNIQUE HOMES & UNTOUCHED NATURE

Private day tour from Tallinn
Duration: approx. 7.5 hours

We Estonians love our nature and we love our homes perhaps even more. So, we decided to combine these two with some history and offer you an engaging experience.
We´ll take you to a part of Estonia most visitors to Tallinn don’t normally visit. It´s a great choice if you’re in search of rural authenticity and serenity of nature.

Tour highlights:
– visit to a historical country estate, used as a family home. We´ll discover the story of its interesting past and enjoy a leisurely conversation with the owner, who has put a lot of time and other resources into restoring both the mansion and the outbuildings
– a local ceramics studio & shop filled with exceptional handmade items to admire
– enjoy the drive through the countryside and villages while learning new things about Estonia
– get close to Estonian nature as we walk by a serene lake, located away from trails and marked routes
– we´ll lay out the blanket and set up a picnic. Soak up the sounds of nature and enjoy the moment
– visit to a small winery run by a creative couple who lives in this unique building. We´ll sample their berry and fruit wines, take a look at the artistic photos made by the hostess and have a chat about their day to day life in this remote spot.
