Winter Trip to Tallinn
The trip was filled with amazing activities and sight seeing, a great walking tour of Tallinn Old Town, the Seaplane Harbour Museum, gingerbread making, some absolutely amazing food, a trip to the Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, a cold 5 minutes on the beach finished nicely with some super festive Christmas markets.
Tallinn is a cosy capital with clean air and a relaxed vibe. Full of history, culture and a creative environment.
Tallinn enchants with its medieval Old Town, and the authentic Olde Hansa medieval restaurant, which is included in the UNESCO World Heritage List.
With so much history throughout the area you couldn't help but feel the authenticity and quaintness nice of the town, however this was mixed with a modern and contemporary feel across areas which have been developed outside of the city walls.
Not to forget all the amazing restaurants throughout the city, offering fresh light food, lots for fish fans, meat eaters, amazing vegetarian options and with Michelin guide restaurants and Michelin star restaurant Lee,
For anyone thinking of a city break and wants to try somewhere 'new' this needs to be on your list. The fresh vibes, cleanliness, friendless and ease at which you can get around makes this a weekend break & a midweek holiday option.
Whilst Tallinn was the focus for my trip don't be fooled into thinking Tallinn is the only place to visit, Estonia offers more than just a city and old town. The forests and islands are a great holiday option for adventure tourism and wildlife spotting.
For a holiday with a difference and a dynamic feel this destination is one to get on the list.
