This was on one of the famous cheap cruises from Stockholm, so again I spent about twice as much time on the boat as opposed to seeing any of Estonia. However, in the few hours I was there, I really enjoyed it!

Like Stockholm, the highlight of Tallinn is the Old Town. There's lots of old winding streets and churches, and of course tourist shops! Across the road from the old town is also a big shopping centre, for those of you who crave the more modern! I think it would be a great place to explore some more, and I am disappointed I didn't have more time there.
Here are my picture highlights of Tallinn:
Church in the old town (there are many!)

I think this was a souvenir shop!

This cruise was almost identical to the one I got a few weeks ago to Helsinki. The price was cheap (320kr for a 4 person cabin) and while the boat was nice the cabin was tiny and without a window. We didn't get to see so much of Estonia, so again if you are really interested in going you probably should pick a different trip. But, if you just want to buy a fridge magnet and take some pictures to say you were there, it's great value!
