Overview of the tour in Tartu

Tartu is a small town with ~100K inhabitants in the South of Estonia. But why world's top 300-ranked university is here? How was the life of Estonians 1000 years ago, 500 years ago, 100 years ago? What countries were figuring for the impact and influence in this region? What is some modern history of Tartu?

We want to share this with you during our tour on the streets of Tartu, where we will discover important historical figures old building fields with history, talk about the religious life of Estonians, university students' lives and much more! After the tour, your humble guides will also give the best hints on where to explore Tartu further, what to eat and what souvenirs to buy from Estonia.

  • General Tour about Tartu and Estonia
  • Fun & Jokes

Things to note

0. If time does not work for you, please write me a message and ask whether it's possible to have a tour at another time. We also have an audio version of our tour available in English.
1. The most emotional thing in Estonia is the weather! Even If the weather 'looks fine' please bring an umbrella or raincoat to save you from rain.
Please come around 5–10 minutes before the tour starts. Thanks!
2. If you're a curious child keen on Tartu's history, we can only do the tour if you bring an accompanying adult with you!
3. This is a volunteering initiative, and we're trying to make it our full-time job, so tips are highly appreciated. Range varies from 8 to 50 EUR, but we won't stop you if you want to give more ;)
