Tallinn was another highlight of the cruise, it was extremely picturesque. Again, it was an easy walk from the ship and everything is contained within the city walls. It was the cheapest of the cities we visited so I would recommend buying gifts here, there were plenty to choose from! Everybody was very welcoming and spoke English. Lots of beautiful churches and viewpoints to admire. We were also ...
The port of Tallinn is located at the foot of the medieval town. Wifi is free at the port.
The city can be visited on foot, since almost all the attractions are in the medieval town and it has many pedestrian streets.

Like Visby, an easy walk from the cruise terminal to a very well preserved medieval city with lots of sites as well as a variety of restaurants. Majority of Estonians spoke great English,so no problems there. ...
