Tallinn
Tallinn is small and compact and ideal for the day visitor. There are, broadly speaking, 3 parts to explore:
- The Lower Town (All-Llinn)
- the Upper Town (Toompea) and
- Kadriorg, which is just outside the walled town.
You can easily see all three parts in a day, so this itinerary will just list our recommendations for each part.
