Welcome to Estonia's cultural cradle!
Visit Estonia is delighted to greet You in Estonia and call out to culture scouts, natural nomads and flavour seekers! A country where the social influencers are centuries old, where attitudes merge a Nordic mindset with medieval mystery, where the fast food comes as fast as it grows and where fewer crowds lead you to deeper conversations.
This time we set out to introduce our 'deep south' - our soon-to-be Culture Capital of Europe, Tartu and a part of its diverse surrounding known in Estonia for the hilly landscapes, lakes and regional pride. We hope that you will enjoy the discovery of our university town's laid back atmosphere, the taste of local produce and the great outdoors. Below you will find your preliminary programme, details will be added along the way.
We offer you a return flight from Stockholm (or Copenhagen) to Tallinn by SAS - the schedule you will also find below.
