Thank you for this beautiful, fun, entertaining and informative video! I've wanted to visit Estonia for years now, and the time is finally here!
Your video's have helped our decision enormously, on which country to visit for my 40th Birthday!
Very spontaneous, we leave in 4 days!
We are so very excited for our first visit to Estonia and to experience the Tallinn you presented so warmly in this guide.
Tuhat tänu!

Hi Polly, thank you for the video. I guess it's not yet snowing 🌨️ but may soon Start.
Please make a video Guidelines on the winter clothes especially those who are coming from Hotter Zones where 10 Celsius is the minimum temperature in peak winters. So, we can understand what sort clothing shall we bring to enjoy our Time during Peak Estonian/Nordic Winters.

Thank you again. God Bless You 🙏

Hi Polly, can we pay with credit card in Christmas Market?

[mikaelachua]

Does anyone know why the Tallinn Christmas Market dates were moved? We booked our trip for after Christmas thinking the Christmas market would last until January 7th 😥

We are in Tallinn, 26 Nov 2023. We are fans and would love to ha=e a coffee with you! Is it possible??

Hi !

I’m interested in visiting Tallinn from 21th till 26th of December.

My concern though is, if there’ll be open cafes and restaurants on these days, since it will be Sunday and Christmas Eve.

Thank you!!
