What people say about Kalev
"A Great Day Exploring Lahemaa National Park"
I really enjoyed this day trip to Lahemaa National Park! It was a great way to discover the natural beauty of Estonia and spend a day exploring outside Tallinn. The guide was friendly, helpful, and always available to answer questions. Overall, a great experience and well worth it!
"Estonian nature and culture at its best!"
Our guide Kalev did a great job. He gave us a wonderful insight into Estonian‘s history and culture and showed us the diversity of its beautiful natural landscape, especially the bogs.
"Imprescindible"
Buena forma de aprovechar el viaje entre las ciudades. Solo un hándicap, en el mismo tiempo se puede realizar la visita a los castillos de Sigulda o Turaida en lugar de la visita al estadiun de carreras. salvo eso que mejoraría mucho el tour, perfecto. El guia entregado y servicial
"Fantastic Experience"
We had a wonderful time on our private tour of Lahemaa National Park. Kalev catered the tour to our interests. He was knowledgable of the area and personable. We would not hesitate to book with Traveller Tours if ever in Tallinn again.
"Interesting and fun day"
Our guide Karl (?) was a very sensible and informative guide in discovering a lovely part of the country. He also drives safely.
"Lahemaa National Park"
Very nice tour, good info from the Guide.
"Great day trip to see the country"
Lahemaa National Park Day Tour is a worthwhile day trip and chance to see several key landmarks Estonia has to offer. You will see beautiful trails in the forests, boulders, waterfall, the coast, bogs, a manor, and a lunch stop at a charming tavern which had excellent food. Over a 6-7 hour period we walked about 6 miles through the various stops. We rode in a 8 passenger van and it was fun getting to know other travelers on the tour. There are a ton of trails and parks to visit in Estonia but I think this tour captures a little of everything in the best areas. I highly recommend this tour and avoid wasting your time trying to plan your own excursion. Plus you get great stories and facts about Estonia and park from the tour guide.
"A tour of various landscapes & cultures"
It’s a fun trip with a lot of stuff to see, waterfall, bogs, forests, coastline, manor, etc. We had quite some walk, but not too much and not difficult. Kalev was an easy-going local guy, experienced and knowledgable about nature, culture and history, and also offered good options to choose from when the time allowed.
"See Estonian nature with real Estonian "
We spent almost whole day in beautiful national park. Kalev was super friendly and answered on all our questions. Thanks him I know better not only information about Lahemaa National Park but also about country and Estonian. Good tour 💪
"Amazing day in Lahemaa NP"
Very vice day, tour and organization. We had our time to spend in all the stops for sightseeing, photos, explanations
"Seeing the local country side"
In every country, you got to see the hinterland and not just only the capital. Good wat to get a feel of the place. Estonia isn’t a crowded place, but you get a feel of the country and the people. Good thing to do when you need to go to Tallinn and went to see something out of the beaten beaten path.
"Much Better way to travel from Riga to Tallinn"
So the arrangement of the ticket can be better at least an online pdf etc a proof that we bought something ;) but the guide was friendly and talkative also the places we visited were nice. It is a small van which makes it also agile. All in all I had good time and it was worth it.
"Thanks a lot for your effort"
Did the transfer tour from Riga to Tallinn with Kalev, that was very professional and informative! Going through the countryside of Latvia and Estonia opened up my travel route in Baltic countries and gave me a fuller picture beyond capital cities of Riga and Taliinn. (Sigulda and Viljandi are awesome ^_^) Because it was a public holiday in Estonia, Kalev tried very hard to contact museums and restaurants and drive extra miles for us to see as much as possible. And he answered our many many questions on anything large or small. Thanks a lot for your effort, Kalev!
"Wonderful day trip to beautiful Lahemaa"
Wonderful day trip to beautiful Lahemaa National Park with Kalev, a great and interesting tour guide who was ever helpful and friendly. Also, enjoyed an informative Old Town walking tour with our entertaining tour guide Heli! Would highly recommend both these tours! (:
Wonderful day trip to Lahemaa wth Kalev! My partner and I especially enjoyed the walks through the woods and crossing the bog ponds. Kalev was an exceptional guide!
"Very accommodating with a last-minute booking"
A friend and I were thrilled to be taken on one of the first full tours of Narva & the Eastern Bloc from Tallinn. We spent more than 12 hours covering incredible ground with a very wide variety of historical, political and natural sights. Our host was informative and enthusiastic and very accommodating with a last-minute booking. Even if you've got a small group of two or three people interested, it's well worth inquiring about a private tour any day of the week, beyond the standard Saturdays that they suggest.
"Keep up the good work"
Sorry its taken so long to write the review but things got back to normal very soon after we got back to England (Rush Rush) . This was our first visit to Estonia and to the wonderful capital ciy of Tallin. My wife(Rosie)and myself (Rob) were lucky enough to have what we considered to be a private tour as we were the only two people taking part with our very knowledgable tour guide (Kalev). who spoke in very good English, Our tour was on a cold cloudy day on November12th 2011 just after the football match against Ireland(sorry Kalev)and were taken by car for the full 7 hours around the Western Coast and Paldiski. Our guide kept us very well informed of the history and pointed out spots you would not normally see on any other tour.I think he was quite embarassed when we got to the lagoon/prison only to find the gates were shut and locked the only disapointment to a fantastic well planned tour. We will both recomend the tour to friends who might be going to Tallin in the future. Wondered if you still had the photographs you took of us to send on e-mail to show our friends of our day out. We gave you e-mail address on the day.. Many thanks again keep up the good work Rob& Rosie Hertfordshiere England
"A great day, personal and memorable experience"
This was my 8th visit to Tallinn and although I don’t usually go on organised trips we came across Tallinn Traveller Info by chance and signed up for the Paldiski tour. What a great day we had and our tour guide Kalev, I have to say, went the extra mile to make our experience a more personal and memorable one. I’m planning my next visit Tallinn in the spring of 2012 and hope to go on the Lahemaa National Park trip.
"A great tour"
This was a great tour and Kalev, our tour guide was a hero. He answered any questions we had, and was very friendly. He really cared about our experience and did everything in his power to make it happen. He also took photos of the whole tour and e-mailed them to us afterwards at no extra charge. I don't usually leave reviews, but I couldn't help but share my great experience on this tour with this company. We went on the western coast and paldiski tour.
"A very relaxing day out"
We made an amazing daytrip to the Western coast. Kalev, our guide (and owner of the company), drove us around the whole day. He was willing to answer all our (stupid) questions and told us everything we wanted to know about Estonia en the sights we were visiting. Kalev was a really fun guy to go with and he made our daytrip a very relaxing day out!
"Will definitely do another trip here"
Best trip, best guide, wonderful scenery and money well spent on this trip. Will definitely do another trip with you when next in this part of the world. Many thanks Kiwi Heidi
Thanks to Kalev for a fantastic day in Laheema Nationalpark! I had a brilliant day there!
"This trip is a must"
Just got back home after a FANTASTIC day in Lahemaa National Park with Kalev. Was just a brilliant day, and despite the rain our spirits were high. Saw so many places and things, but without ever feeling rushed...and was great to see what else Estonia had to offer outside Tallinn!. Really an absolutely super duper, well-organised but relaxed trip which you MUST go on if you are in Estonia! THANKS!!
"Definitely value for money"
This was such a great tour, definitely value for money. We were a group of six of ages ranging from 30s to 60s and all thoroughly enjoyed visiting Lahemaa National Park with our guide, Kalev. He was so friendly and didn't mind our constant questions about life in Estonia etc and also did a detour on the way as we wanted to see Jagala waterfall. Brilliant day.
It was really great!!! Thank you very much to be such closer. Cheers
Das war eine tolle Tour in eine beeindruckende Natur - informativ, entspannend und locker. Unser Reiseleiter begleitete unsere kleine Gruppe aus Japanern, Amerikanern, Niederländern und Deutschen kompetent und unaufgeregt - ein wirklich sehr schöner Tag, vielen Dank!
"Well worth every euro"
Fantastic tour. Enjoyed every moment. Kalev was great, really friendly and showed us so many fantastic places round the Lahemaa National Park in a day. One of the best tours I've done. The best way to see places outside the city if you can. Highly recommended and well worth every euro!!!
"Very well organized"
Our trip with Kalev to the Lahemaa National Park was a very good organized, fine travel - Kalev did a great job, and we spent a wounderful day in Estonian nature...
"Such a good time"
The Lahemaa-Tour with Kalev we did on Tuesday, 2 August 2011 was one of the best things that happened to us when we travel - and we travel a lot... He showed us sooo many awesome sites and gave us so much interesting information on Estonia, Tallinn, Lahemaa and the Estonians in general. 10 hours or more flew away within seconds... Take your swimming togs with you, probably you can make use of it at the end of the day...;-) Thanks to Kalev and the whole team of Travellers for giving us such a good time!
"Couldn't have planned a better time ourselves"
We came to Tallinn on a weekend trip from Helsinki, and did both the Lahemaa and Funky Bike Tours. The Tallinn Traveller team looked after us really well the whole time - we couldn't have planned a better time ourselves. Expect to laugh, learn and be pushed out of your everyday travel comfort zone.
"Don't leave without taking this tour."
Easily one of the best tours I've been on. Spent a full day with Kalev roaming the Lahemaa National Park and seeing a side to Estonia that you just don't get in the city. Our guide was friendly, relaxed and always up for a chat. Almost felt like we were spending the day with a good friend. If you're in Estonia for a few days, don't leave without taking this tour.
