Hey guys! So, I’m super excited to share that I’ll be heading over to Helsinki and Tallinn this November. I’ve got a solid 2 full days planned in each city, and I’ve already done a bit of digging to come up with a rough itinerary of places I want to hit up.
For Helsinki, I’m thinking of checking out the city centre, Suomenlinna, Oodi Library, the Design District, Löyly, and if time allows, maybe swing by Seurasaari. As for Tallinn, my plan is to dive into the Old Town, explore Telliskivi Creative City, stroll through Kadriorg Park, geek out at the Seaplane Harbour Museum, and take a leisurely walk along the coast.
I’m all about soaking in the architecture, finding cozy cafés, digging into some delicious local eats, snapping photos, and just meandering through cool neighborhoods. I’m totally cool with walking long distances or hopping on public transport, and my budget is pretty open to whatever.
So, for those of you who’ve already been to either of these cities, I’d love to hear your thoughts! Is there anything on my list that you’d skip because it’s not all that great? Or maybe there’s a hidden gem that most tourists overlook that you’d absolutely recommend checking out? I’m especially on the hunt for awesome local spots to grab a bite or enjoy a cup of coffee. Hit me with your suggestions!
Thanks a bunch in advance for all the help!
