Max was fantastic. Group wasn’t too big (14 people) and it was a great mix of history and modern details while getting to see lots of old town I couldn’t have found on my own. Definitely better than many we saw walking around

Our guide Max was very knowledgeable about the history and architecture of Tallin. Unfortunately we had a very large group and unless you were right next to the guide, you missed out on some of his comments although he made every effort to wait until the test of the large group caught up to him. The tour was excellent

Response from provider

July 14, 2025

Thanks for your feedback on Max's excellent knowledge! We're very sorry about the large group; this was an unavoidable situation due to a second guide being unwell that day. Max made every effort to ensure everyone could follow. We wish you all the best for future trips!
