You will see all the main highlights including the Latin quarter, where a Dominican monastery was situated since the 13th century, and Pikk Street, which use to be the main street of Tallinn in the Middle Ages and where you can see the houses of merchants and craftsmen.
Next you will get acquainted with the medieval architecture of Tallinn and learn what makes it so special as you gaze at the churches of the Holy Ghost, St Nicolas and St Olaf. The old town consists of two parts, the lower town and the upper town. After exploring the former, you will then head for the latter via Short Leg Street.

See the castle which hosts the Parliament of Estonia along with a castle tower named Tall Herman. Enjoy a view of the city from one of the viewing platforms located in the upper town.

I was disappointed with Stockholm half a day tour as we saw very little any significance. I suggest pl include the Nobel laureate`s tour as well.
