The Tallinn Town Square (Raekoja plats) is a lively hub, perfect for spontaneous shots among colorful historic buildings and bustling cafes. The guide’s knack for finding spontaneous moments helps you look relaxed and natural.

St. Catherine’s Passage is often considered one of the most enchanting spots — narrow, winding, and lined with artisan shops, it lends itself beautifully to artistic shots.

Both spots are free to visit, but they offer incredible textures and views perfect for memorable photos.

Viru Gates stand as a symbol of Tallinn’s medieval heritage, framing a lively street scene. Moving upward, Toompea Hill offers sweeping views of the city’s rooftops, along with historical sites like the Estonian Parliament and St. Mary’s Church. Your guide will help you find the best vantage points, especially from Kohtuotsa and Patkuli viewing platforms, where the panoramic vistas make for breathtaking photos.

Each stop is planned to optimize your photo experience, with the guide offering creative suggestions to bring out your personality and ensure the photos are authentic and lively.
