This is truly one of the most memorable trip I’ve had in Estonia if not in the Baltic states. From the magnificent nature of Estonia to the monumental historic sites of Sillamae and Narva which depicted some of the most important histories of Estonia, my friendly, passionate and knowledgable guide Juhan has shown me the essence, pride and tragic past of Estonia.
At the end of the tour, Juhan even kindly brought me to the ‘Home Garden’ memorial site which commemorates the victims deported to the gulags during Soviet occupation. Having learnt about the depressing stories from Juhan, I can’t help but feel heavy in my chest and yet at the same time feel hopeful there is always light after a long road of seemingly endless darkness.
I feel grateful that I had Juhan as my guide of this wonderful and memorable trip. I would recommend this tour to anyone travelling in Estonia, this will open your eyes.
