Great tour! - Great Tour Ania gave us a wonderful walking tour through the medieval streets of Old Tallinn. She told us fascinating stories about epidemics, punishments, carnivals, and everyday life in medieval times. It was really interesting to hear these stories right in the places where they actually happened centuries ago. A big thank you to Ania!

Enjoyable tour! - This tour was a great start to our weekend. The guide Ania told us about justice in the Middle Ages and that was really informative. We knew about local cases and saw places connected to them. Also we liked riddles, that was fun. We enjoyed the tour very much. Thank you, Ania!

Medieval Tallinn tour - Our guide, Anya, was very sweet. The main issues were that #1- she wasn’t holding an umbrella as indicated she would, thus making it hard to find her. She eventually noticed us wandering! #2- she tried very hard, but her English was average at best. She struggled explaining things, although it was clear she knew her facts.
