Riga to Tallinn (via Saaremaa Island) Bespoke Tour

This was another excellent hotel in a delightful town (Kuressaare on Saaremaa). SAAREMAA TO TALLINN The journey from Saaremaa to Tallinn took us first to Vaiste Bay. If Ivo was initially hesitant about going to Vaiste Bay, his hesitancy was soon dispelled by the beauty of the place and his fortuitous meeting a friend when we stopped at a local house to see if anybody knew about the submarine that had been wrecked there in 1917. The house turned out to be that of the father of Ivo’s friend and he was able to give us valuable information. The subsequent visit to Rohkula was equally interesting. Throughout, Ivo again drove with care and safety.

How much we enjoyed Romania and Moldova

Just wanted to say how much we enjoyed Romania and Moldova, we both got home fine. The team everywhere were brilliant, so knowledgeable, friendly and charming. And your handouts in terms of maps, info etc were brilliant, helped us understand the complex history. Hotels excellent and the eco camp where the food was outstanding.

You did a very good job of setting this up, directing us to interesting and varied places

Our trip went very well. Everything was a highlight but I think the best part were the guides. They were so knowledgeable, friendly, willing to answer all our questions. Marina would be my best friend if I lived in Finland. Ivo, Erlens, and, Linas were great too. The bike tour guides were fantastic also. All of them were passionate about their country and very knowledgeable about what we were seeing. Through them we felt we got to know the country, the history, the people and them too. Everyone was precisely on time. I think you did a very good job of setting this up, directing us to interesting and varied places: a hike through the bog, castles and palaces, cute towns, etc. The hotels were great. Friendly staff and so very well located. Again, thank you for making this trip so wonderful. I'd easily go on another trip with you.
