Narva & The Eastern Bloc Day Tour｜Estonia

Discover the unknowable, strange, beautiful, and surprising diamond in the rough that is north-eastern Estonia. This tour is a look at a completely different side of Estonian life, one you will not regret getting a glimpse of.

Join a 12-hour day trip down the north-eastern coast of Estonia. Your knowledgeable local guide takes a small group, up to 8 people, for a fun-filled day all the way to the Russian border and back.

Roam around the ruins of Toolse fortress right next to the seaside. See the industrial landscapes of Estonia with oil shale mines and manmade ash hills at Kohtla-Järve along with some classic Soviet architecture from the heyday of the mining.

Visit Sillamäe, a city that in Soviet time was so secret that it did not officially even exist. Sillamäe is known for its unique ensemble of Stalinist architecture and some quirky local museums.

Discover Narva, the third biggest city in Estonia. In Narva, stop by old Krenholm Manufacturing Company buildings to appreciate the scale of industry during the era of the czars. Look across the Narva River at Russia and visit the courtyard of the Narva Castle towering over the border.

Stop for lunch at Kohtla-Järve or, if you prefer, buy snacks for the road. Kindly let your guide know if you have any special dietary needs that should be taken into account.
