  • Favorite Thing: Be sure to visit the new Tourist Information Center at the corner of Kullassepa and Niguliste. Here you can get a free map and (for a soft price) several different interesting booklets and brochures.

    Particularly nice are the little booklets called "curiosity walks in Tallinn". There's a description of walks in Kadriorg park, along the different churches, in the lower town and on and around Toompea. They cost 25 krooni a piece, which is cheap if you take into account the excellent pictures you get into the bargain (better than my blurry 'frozen fingers too vain to wear my cap' ones :).

    Certainly a big improvement compared to the old office on Town Hall Square!

    Tourist Info: The city "in your pocket"

  • Favorite Thing: One of the first things I tend to do when I get to Tallinn is to hop into a bookstore and buy the excellent "Tallinn in your pocket" city guide.

    These little books are filled with very up-to-date and useful info about anything you would need during your visit. And the best part is that they are really cheap (only 35 krooni or about 2,30 euros). "In your pocket" guides are updated every two months, so they are really up to speed with all that moves in Tallinn.

    On their website you can download a free short-version of the guides. Go and have a look!

  • Favorite Thing: A good and central place for a quick mail check is the little coffee bar in this (rather posh) shopping centre. Prices seem to vary winter and summer; the most I paid was about 60 krooni/hour around midsummer.

    At the corner of Viru and Vene, computers are under the stairs.

    Drink: Saku rules!

  • Favorite Thing: Well, boys and girls, this is the one - Saku beer, world famous in Estonia and Finland and the reason of existence of many a ferry company. Hordes of Fins drag boxes of this stuff home and save hundreds of euros per year from the price difference.

    As a Belgian, I am rather spoiled and not easily satisfied. Saku is not bad though. Not exactly "world class", but a soft pils, and easily enjoyable.

     Really like the winter photos and great nightlife and restaurant tips - added much to a guide for my nephew's trip. Will return again. Ciao, Carol
