Tallinn Airport or Lennart Meri Tallinn Airport is the largest airport in Estonia and serves as a hub for the national airline Nordica, as well as the secondary hub for AirBaltic and LOT Polish Airlines. Tallinn Airport is open to both domestic and international flights. It is located 5.0 km southeast of the centre of Tallinn on the eastern shore of Lake Ülemiste. It was formerly known as Ülemiste Airport.

The airport has also been used for military purposes. It has served as an interceptor aircraft base, being home to the 384th Interceptor Aircraft Regiment (384 IAP), which operated MiG-23P aircraft.

 Welcome dinner at Noa — destination dining overlooking Tallinn Bay

Constructed from wood and glass with stunning sea views, inventive cuisine and eclectic wine list it is easy to see why Noa has been a hit since its opening in 2014.

The restaurant was originally designed around an ancient ash tree, but had to be removed during construction. They since planted a new tree to grow into the space.

The low-level building which oversees the Bay of Tallinn and Old town has won award for its innovative design. Every table has a seaview thanks to different levels and mirrors.

DAY 2 — 11th July 2022, Sunday

 Walking Tallinn City Sightseeing Tour

The tour gives an overall impression about the city, its history and development. The walking tour in the Old Town takes you back to medieval times when Tallinn was an important trade center and gathered merchants and traders of all nationalities. Enjoy the well preserved Old Town with buildings dating back to even 16th century, narrow cobbled stone streets and small inner yards with charming art galleries and cafes.

 1/ Tasting of Legendary Vana Tallinn

Vana Tallinn is a dark brown and robust rum-based liqueur. Its taste is completed by several natural additives including citrus oils, cinnamon, vanilla and rum itself, all giving the liqueur its distinctive, somewhat exotic and velvety taste. The history of the Vana Tallinn liqueur dates back to the beginning of the 1960ís. The liqueur masters created a new and unique taste with the main flavours being rum and citrus. The exact recipe is a well kept secret handed over from one liqueur master to another.

Vanilla pods, orange, lemon and bitter orange oils mixed with Jamaican rum give the drink its unique velvety and exotic flavour. A hint of cinnamon adds an exiting, slightly bitter aroma.

The name Vana Tallinn, which literally means «Old Tallinn», links the drink with the old medieval heart of Tallinn, thus creating consistency with traditions. In this sense, Vana Tallinn comprises the skills of masters through centuries.

Vana Tallinn quickly became one of the most symbolic icons of the city and one of the most well-known trade marks associated with Estonia.

We recommend drinking Vana Tallinn neat, as a complement to coffee, or on its own with crushed ice.

Nonetheless, it is also an outstanding cocktail component.

 2/ A Tour Under Tallinn’s Bastions

A tour under Tallinn’s bastions offers its guests a unique experience. The numerous and mysterious passages in Tallinn’s fortifications were built along with the bastions in the 17th and 18th centuries. The aim of the passages was to conceal the movement of soldiers, ammunition and other equipment. The passages also played a role in espionage – to observe the enemy’s underground mining work.

The tour starts at the Kiek in de Kok Museum and leads only under a part of the bastions. The rest are still under water or are in a bad condition.

Medieval Dominican Monastery Claustrum visit with a special show

Visit the inner chambers of Tallinn's 13th-century Dominican Monastery for a glimpse into the lives of medieval monks.

These chambers once included three wings, together called the Claustrum, of which the east wing still remains. It consists of a monks’ dormitory, library, refectory, prior’s living quarters and other rooms. Visitors shouldn’t miss the mysterious 'Energy Pillar' in the cellar, thought to be a source of physical and spiritual health.

Program price includes:

— Candles in the rooms;

— Monastery assistant in medieval dress;

— Meeting with fr.Einar Laigna, Chatolic priest. He will lead the group inside the monastery. Fr.Laigna singing.

 Lunch at Kaerajaan — modern Estonian cuisine

Kaerajaan is a modern version of local traditions – it is named after a local traditional dance and its interior design elements and food are influenced by Estonian cultural heritage. The old chairs that we selected have been upholstered to offer comfort; copper decorations that resemble old traditional reed compositions and gigantic lights with mittens hang from the ceiling.

Located right on the famous Town Hall Square, Kaerajaan is a great place to experience a modern take on traditional, Estonian cuisine. Its name comes from an old folk song and dance about a well-known Estonian man who was constantly eating in his kitchen, and both the off-beat interior and the inventive dishes resonate with the echoes of the nation's ethnic heritage. The restaurant is traditional with a modern twist in interior, menu and music. The ceiling is decorated with national ornaments, lampshades are covered with woolen mittens, and the ultra-modern one-of-a-kind chimney-toilet built into the 17th century chimneystack is really something special.
