About Estonia

About Estonia

Estonia is a tiny Northern European country in the Baltics. It shares borders with Latvia and Russia. The country is divided into four regions - north, south, east, and west - all of which can be reached from the country's capital, Tallinn, in a few hours. Tallinn is a well-preserved medieval city filled with historic landmarks.

Most tourists visit Estonia in the summer when the weather is warm enough to visit the country's beaches or attend an outdoor music festival. During the winter, the weather can be quite severe, but there's plenty to do when the temperatures drop. Hiking in a national park, skiing, ice skating, and dog sledding are popular winter activities.

Estonian cuisine is heavily influenced by German, Russian, and Scandinavian cuisine. Wild game is commonly served with sides of black pudding, sauerkraut stew, or potato salad. If you have a sweet tooth, try some chocolate from Kalev, the national manufacturer. For after-dinner drinks, head to a local micro-brewery or ask for a shot of vodka at the local pub. 

There are plenty of hotel rooms available in Tallinn, but if you want to have a more authentic experience, book a stay on a tourism farm or a restored manor house. Other options for accommodation include bed and breakfasts, hostels, and campgrounds. ​
