We thoroughly enjoyed our day trip to Laheema National Park, which was greatly enhanced by our fantastic guide Christo. His knowledge, stories and sense of humour made the whole day so much fun. Being a local man who knew so much about the nature of the area and gave us fascinating facts everywhere we went was so interesting. The Jagala waterfalls were spectacular, part frozen and the Sagadi Manor House was fascinating, making me feel as if I was in War & Peace, and all just the right length of time at each stop. The Viru Bog walk was also great and we enjoyed seeing something a bit different. The beach at Altja was amazing, all covered in snow and we did enjoy seeing the coastal area. The lunch stop was also a highlight - delicious food and the hearty soups certainly warmed us up on a cold day. We felt very welcome in the local restaurant. All in all I would not only highly recommend this fabulous tour, a great day out and well worth the price, but if you have the opportunity you should ask for Christo as he just made it the perfect day for us. Thank you Christo - we so enjoyed your company.

We had a great trip with Andreas who was a fantastic guide, such beautiful scenery in the snow! We had a great meal at O kõrts restauraunt, we tried the mulgipuder on the recommendation of Andreas, absolutely delicious and a good portion size at a cheap price

Andreas, our guide is very knowledgeable and accommodating. The waterfalls, the Viru Bog Natural Trail (I think this is the only one in the world where you can see this) and all the sites we went to were great.

We had an amazing day with our tour guide Kaire! She picked us up from Tallinn and we first drove to the impressive Jägala waterfalls. Then this we went to the Viru bogs where we hiked up to the watchtower. After a traditional lunch we went to the Sagadi manor house and also visited the forest museum there. The last stop was the beautiful fishingtown Altja. Kaire told us many interesting things about Estonia and the Lahemaa national park during our day together. She showed us not only the beautiful sights, but also made us appreciate the wonderful smells of roses and the forest after rain! And last but not least she played traditional folk music for us during the drive. I would definitely recommend to book this tour!!

We decided to book a day trip to the Lahemaa National Park as part of our stay in Tallinn (June 28th-July 9th 2023). We were originally supposed to share the tour with another couple, but due to unforseen circumstances we ended up spending the day on our own with our guide, Helen. We started chatting casually as she drove us to the park in her car and never experienced a dull moment during the whole day. The trip itself was worth every cent: we explored the bog, walking all along the wooden path, then drove to an old fishermen's village (where we had a quick lunch on the beach) and visited a historical manor with beautiful gardens, a small lake and a greenhouse. As our final stop, we reached the Jägala waterfall, another magical place. The landscape is breathtakingly beautiful and we are so happy we decided to book this tour instead of driving there on our own, because we would missed so many details about Estonian history, folklore and culture. Helen is an excellent guide: easy going, communicative and always ready to answer our questions with a smile but also sensitive enough to leave us some quiet time to spend on our own during the day. We had an amazing time and cannot recommend both the tour and Helen highly enough!

We booked the day trip to Lahemaa National Park for our cruise day visit to Tallinn. Our excellent guide was Jorge, a man born and raised in Cuba, educated in Moscow and now a tour guide able to give tours in at least four languages. Jorge was extremely knowledgeable about natural wonders, geography, culture, history, etc. Our itinerary included a visit to Jagala Waterfall, hiking trail in Lahemaa Ntl Park, drive through former fishing villages, views of two historic manor homes, and a stop at Altja village tavern for lunch. The tour was most enjoyable and informative. Highly recommend.

Our guide is great. She is punctual,introducing everything relevant to us and answeribg our questions patiently. The fishing village is oretty,though the big seems different from what we imagined. Anyway it's always great to leave the city and embrace the nature.

Our trip to Lahemaa National Park was magical!! We were only 3 people so we could really enjoy nature all by ourselves in peace and quiet. The walk was really easy and fun despite the cold day! The frozen waterfall, the forest, and the fishing village were incredible! Our Guide Helena picked us up right on time. She is one of the best guides we have ever come across. She gave us a lot of interesting facts and her personal emotions about her country and was ready to make stops when we asked for a photo! She is a nature lover and has a great sense of humor. She really contributed to making this trip amazing and unforgettable.
