I'm offering my tour to everyone who wants to connect with the city of Tartu - we walk through the National capital of Estonia, and I share both history, the modern culture, and trying my best to build connections with Estonia. Why? I want to connect with people on my tours, so I keep group sizes small. This creates a more engaging experience for the whole group! I believe in personalized service, and my groups can tailor tours to topics of interest. We keep in contact throughout the tour too! And as always - Pay per fun! The best part is that you tip at the end of the tour based on how much you enjoyed it!
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
Go across the Arch bridge to the park. Find the monument to the men, and running lady. I will be holding a green folder. I might hide from the sun in the shadow of trees.
We'll finish in downtown with a story to Estonian humor!
