"Wonderful, in depth tour of old town and newer modern area that has been renovated since Soviet collapse. Anna demonstrated detailed knowledge of the locations and people responsible. "
"We had a wonderful 5 hrs tour with Jorge- he immediately understood what we wanted to see and gave us an incredible tour of the City incorporating a lot of history, art, architecture and local culture. We walked, took the tram, went to old coffee shops even off the beaten track churches which we loved. His passion for history and exploring the world as well as his positive attitude was exactly what we were looking for! Highly recommended!!!!!"
"Tallinn is a fascinating city steeped in history, and we were eager to have a guide to help us explore its rich heritage. Our guide led us to hidden gems that I hadn’t come across in my readings, as well as some well-known sites. Before booking, I was unfamiliar with WithLocals and was uncertain about the level of expertise and professionalism we could expect, particularly given the cost (a private tour for two was more affordable than paying for just one person in a larger group of 20 on other tours we took during our Northern Europe trip). However, it quickly became clear that our guide was highly knowledgeable."
"Jorge was a terrific guide and gave us a real insight into Estonian history, politics, architecture, society, culture and life . He also showed us lots of interesting hidden places. As a Cuban Estonian he had interesting perspectives and was a delight to spend 5 hours with. Would recommend him and the 5 hour tour highly. "

Excellent tailored tour
"Despite heavy rain during our tour Jorge gave us a very informative and excellent tour, tailoring it to meet our requests. We particularly enjoyed the visit to the local market."
"I like to use with locals as when you select a tour you have a chance to select your guide based on their profile and reviews. I like to pick locals and specifically picked Paul for that reason. He confirmed our booking Jan 5 for a tour May 31.
When I reached out May 30 to say we were looking forward to meeting him the next day he informed me that he was busy and had passed us to another guide.
We met with Peter who is an American who now lives in Estonia and while he was good he is not a guide I would pick as not a true local.
We actually ran into Paul and Peter tried to introduce us but Paul basically brushed us off as he was busy with a food tour for at least 10 people. A much more lucrative tour I’m sure. Not impressed. So if you pick local Paul you may or may not end up with him depending on whether a more lucrative offer comes up."
"We had a great morning with Jorge who moved to Estonia 30 years ago. He shared his deep knowledge of the history and took us through the old town. Our first stop was a parking lot! Where we could see the old bastions remains and we got into some spots other tourists didn’t know about. He also made us reservations at a restaurant where we had our best meal since we've been on this adventure! He is a great guide."
"Our walking tour with Lauri was exceptional. We really enjoyed his expertise and company. "
