Tartu

Small Group Walking Tour of Vana Lugu Tartu Old Town

I'm offering my tour to everyone who wants to connect with the city of Tartu — we walk through the National capital of Estonia, and I share both history, the modern culture, and trying my best to build connections with Estonia. Why? I want to connect with people on my tours, so I keep group sizes small. This creates a more engaging experience for the whole group! I believe in personalized service, and my groups can tailor tours to topics of interest. We keep in contact throughout the tour too! And as always — Pay per fun! The best part is that you tip at the end of the tour based on how much you enjoyed it!

Private tour to Tartu from Tallinn

The town of Tartu was founded almost a thousand years ago by Russian duke Yaroslav the Wise. Tartu has been under the power of the bishop, Swedish kingdom, and the Russian Empire. The old, German name of Tartu was Dorpat. In the 17th century Swedish king Gustav Adolf gave an order to create a university here. This is how Tartu University appeared. When Estonia was merged with the Russian Empire in 1710 the Tartu University became the first university of the Russian Empire. It has been almost 400 years and the university is a modern high‐class educational institution. On the hill and surrounded by a wall, we can see picturesque ruins of Saint Peter’s Cathedral.
