L'Ermitage

It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas. Let this be your complete guide to both the Helsinki & Tallinn Christmas markets. Part of the guide "The Best Christmas Markets in Europe", which can be found at the bottom of this guide. Here's what you'll see and what you need to try when visiting the cities of Helsinki & Tallinn during the Christmas season. A lot of work went into this guide. I leave my travel knowledge open for all, so if you find this guide useful I do ask that you leave a tip, which can be found at the bottom of the page. Feel free to reach out with any questions! thomas.abroadandco@gmail.com

Welcome to Tallinn! The capital of Estonia (and my home town) is a hidden gem, just a 2 hours ferry ride away from Helsinki. Tallinn has something for everyone, starting from a rich history with a UNESCO heritage site Old Town to a bohemian atmosphere in Telliskivi Creative City. Here you will find a 2-3 day itinerary, depending on how many days you want to spend in Tallinn. You can find options for every taste, as a local I will cover all that Tallinn has to offer. Also, add some hidden gems! 😉 Let's go! Or in Estonian: "Lähme!"
