Banned Books Museum

Museum

👍👍 The museum is owned by a Scottish guy (even though his accent won't give him away). From a media background, he developed an interest in censorship whilst living in China. The museum is as yet fairly small, and entry is free- with new books added to the collection daily. From explicit, erotic nov...

Tales of Reval

Tour operator

👍👍 We did this walking tour on a very rainy, mushy snow, miserable weather day and yet our guide Gregorius was all cheerful and enthusiastic to tell us several tales of Tallinn. Despite the fact that there were only 3 of us he was so keen and charming, helping us to cross the cobblestone roads that wer...

Papagoide Paradiis

Zoo

👍👍 I liked everything, all the parrots are very cute. A ticket for an adult costs 17 euros per 45. Not cheap, but acceptable, more than worth it. The staff is friendly and will answer any questions. There is a small wardrobe with a camera, which is important. At the entrance, the birds are given a bowl...
