Tallinn Winter Guide in 2024!

Welcome to our Winter Guide to Tallinn in 2024. The Old Town of Tallinn transforms into a magical wonderland during this season. In this video, I share places that you can visit in the Old Town if you visit for less than 8 hours. This video is jam-packed with activities (expect a lot of climbing) and some super yummy spots (to get all these calories back, of course). Also, I'll be sharing a little more context about each place and some practical tips so that you have fun whilst exploring this wonderful city in winter.

Hi, I regularly watch your videos about Tallin, I was in Tallin's old city today (11th March ) while it was snowing alot, it's really awesome to Rome around the streets of Old City while snowing 👍 and if you have shot this video today itself then unfortunately I missed the chance of becoming part of your video While exploring the Old City 🙂.

[debbiebryden]

[escwilde]

Hi hi, I'm looking to plan a trip to Estonia and Latvia and ofc Tallinn is on my must see list! This video made me so excited!

A question regarding to Estonia in general:
How is Estonia with public transport for tourists? And around February, is going out to Narva worth it?

[stephenturner]

Hi Polly,

I have 1 quick question.

I love your videos on Tallinn, you mention booking The Tallinn Card which i have now done (i come with my best mate in late May for a week).

My question is:

Is The ICOM International Museums Card widely accepted at major Museums, Art Galleries and Attractions in Tallinn or would u stick primarily to The Tallinn Card?

Secondly do you run private walking history tours of Tallinn yourself if so i would be very interested.

Hi. Does it snow on days leading up to Christmas in Tallinn? I would love to experience a White Christmas for once in my life. How are the Christmas markets ?
