Overview
Tallinn is a city of stories, and Tales of Reval brings them to life.
Join us on a journey through one of Europe's best-preserved medieval Old Towns and discover how Hanseatic merchants, nobles, craftsmen, and rulers transformed a small Baltic town into the Gateway to the riches of the East.
Instead of a fragmented compilation of facts, the tour unfolds as one cohesive narrative. We don't simply recite history. We perform it. Through audience participation, street theatre and storytelling, you'll step into the Tale of Tallinn, where each stop becomes the next chapter, forming a story that stays with you long after the tour has ended.
After nearly a decade and tens of thousands of guests from around the world, we're proud that Tales of Reval has become Tallinn's highest-rated storytelling experience.
Please note: Tales of Reval is a team rather than a single guide. While Cedric appears in many of our photos, your storyteller may also be Gregorius, Wilhelm, or Arietta. Just look for your guide dressed in authentic 15th-century clothing.
PS! If you're having trouble finding us, the friendly folks at the Tourist Information Centre will gladly point you in the right direction.
