Solo Female Travel in Tallinn

Group travel experience

When we arrive to Tallin, it was nighttime. Me and two of my friends could walk through the street at 11 p.m. It makes us feel safe. It was really freezing outside. We went first of march. You need clothes that keep you warm. Also, I tried a few traditional dishes but i am not sure if they’re nice or overrated. People are not hospitable and smile faced. It was a frustrating situating for me. Moreover, I love the castle and the viewing point of the city.

Group travel experience

Tallinn was perfect But I highly recommend going there in warm weather because in February the place was so cold. I like the atmosphere a lot!!! Especially old town was vivid and there were a lot of good cafes and restaurants.

Solo travel experience

Hey! I was on my business trip in Tallinn and first I was with my colleagues but I stayed there for extra 4 days and was absolutely alone. I visited some museums and parks, it was nice. I really loved the exhibition at Fotografiska. Since I was single at that time I met one guy on tinder, he was really nice, my danish friend organised a meeting with his danish friend and one Italian just came to me when I was going on a stroll so I was not that lonely anymore. I felt quite safe there. In general, I have pretty good impressions of that trip

Solo travel experience

Beautiful city - very underrated! I felt so safe exploring on my own and stayed in a really budget friendly hostel in the city centre called Viru Backpackers Hostel! Definitely head up to the viewpoint overlooking the city, I went in February and it began snowing which made it even more beautiful

Solo travel experience

I fell in love with this city. I stayed in the unique Kalamaja district, in one of the local wooden houses (Kalamaja means "fish house", its roots are in the fishing district, but today it's rather hipster and artistic). The museums in the city center are quite nice, but you can quickly explore them. I recommend visiting the NUKU museum, which presents dolls and puppets from the local puppet theatre. A place that presents really good works of art is Fotografiska, where you can also find delicious cinnamon buns. It is worth going to the Kalamaja Museum, which was created by the local community and preserves their stories. Be sure to go to the sea, even towards Linnahall. These beaches are raw and extraordinary.

Family travel experience

Tallinn is the perfect city for travellers who don‘t like the big mega cities but still want to get to explore a lot. Tallinns beautiful old city is perfect to just stroll around and explore every tiny street. Still you have to beware to not get into a travel time, where all the big ships arrive and the cruise tourists roll over the city. Public transport is quit easy to understand, just the ticketing is not that easy, as most estonians don‘t have to pay for public transport. I really recommend checking out the lauluväljak - the plac where every 4 years the big singers festival talke place. From this to the bext point: estonian History is really interisting and totally worth looking into. You will learn a lot about crusade trips, first and second world war as well as the long time estonia was submerged into the soviet union. Totally recommend checking Tallinn and also the rest pf Estonia out!

Solo travel experience

I was alone in Tallinn and it was really nice, but it did not seem that there was much to do there. St. Alexander Nevsky Cathedral is beautiful, the Museum and Kiek in de Kök towers were quite cool and not too expensive, there are a few nice bars in the city which are about 10/15 minutes away from the old town.

Solo travel experience

I bought a Tallinn card when I was there and I definitely thought it was worth it. I did many things included in the card and I was able to see/do lots of things within the 3 days that I spent there. Not far from the city there are ruins of the Pirita monastery and that was probably my favorite place that I saw.

Solo travel experience

I visited Tallinn during Christmas. It's a charming city, very friendly, and English is commonly used there. I highly recommend the KGB Museum.

Solo travel experience

I loved Tallinn. I spent a relaxing week there. I visited about 10 museums in the old part of the city, the beach and forest in Pirita, the botanical garden, the monument of communism, the old viewing platform, Kadriorg park, the harbor area, that Russian building on the hill, the TV tower for the view, and the markets.

I recommend visiting the old town, Rotermann, Noblessner, Kadriorg, Telliskivi district to Fotografiska and many places for eating and drinking. My favorite places in Tallinn for eating are ÜLO, Sushiplaza Izakaya, and Rataskaevu 16, and for drinks, Butterfly Lounge and Nümf.

If you're interested in art, KUMU is a great gallery that's easily accessible from the old town. If you're interested in history, check out the Occupation Museum. Ülemiste Keskus is a great place for shopping. The old town is nice in every way - you can spend the whole day walking around the tiny cobbled streets and trying every cafe there. Check out Kompressor and Pierre Chocolaterie as an example. Spend the day in Telliskivi district with all the small boutiques of Estonian design and wonderful food. La Tabla, Kivi Paber Käärid, F-Hoone are just a few of the many great places where you can eat in Telliskivi.
