Caryn – United Kingdom

I really enjoyed this activity. We where visiting form Tallinn for the day so it was a really good way to see the city. Plenty of stops to get off and explore and plenty of information given throughout the tour.

Andy – United Kingdom

We liked that it wasn’t overcrowded like some others we have been on. There seemed to be plenty of buses and have a QR code to check where the bus was in real time One set of headphones did not work so we shared. Interesting commentary
