From our itineraries

What a day in Tartu looks like.

Taken from the itineraries themselves — these are real days from trips we run, not a generic description of the city.

Day 4 · Essence of Estonia — 5 Days

Tartu

Drive south to Tartu — a 2.5-hour journey through the Estonian countryside of forests, lakes, and farmland. Tartu is built around its university, founded by Gustavus Adolphus of Sweden in 1632, and the town has the energy of a place where ideas matter. Walk the Town Hall Square, visit the university's 18th-century main building and the cathedral ruins on Toomemägi hill, and explore the Estonian National Museum — a striking modern building that tells the story of the Estonian people from the Ice Age to independence. The Supilinn (Soup Town) neighbourhood, with its colourful wooden houses named after vegetables, is one of the most charming quarters in the Baltics. Farewell dinner at a Tartu restaurant.

  • University of Tartu — founded 1632
  • Estonian National Museum
  • Toomemägi hill and cathedral ruins

Day 12 · Grand Baltics — 12 Days

Departure

Final morning in Tartu — a last coffee, a walk by the Emajõgi River, or a browse through the university bookshops. Private transfer to Tallinn Airport (2.5 hours) or onward to your next destination. Twelve days, three countries, three UNESCO capitals, and a region that most travellers overlook — until they arrive.
