Estonia Travel Guide - Expert travel advice and tips on everything from Tallinn accommodation and restaurants to day trips, medieval history, culture and music. Also featuring suggested routes and island trips, local food and drink, UNESCO sites, Lahemaa National Park, Tartu, Saatse, Valga, Kuressaare castle, Sillamäe beach, walking and hiking.
Bradt's Estonia remains the only English-language guidebook to this Baltics destination and this seventh edition reveals more of the country than any previous guide. Readers now discover why Miss Estonia likes antique cars, where Eiffel built before Paris, and why Edward VII could not land in Tallinn to meet Tsar Nicholas II and had instead to spend three days in the harbour. Offering extensive coverage of Estonia's complex cultural history and its artists, writers and musicians, alongside comprehensive practical information, Baltics expert Neil Taylor proves that there's much more to Estonia than the cobbled streets and cafés of Tallinn. He won the 2012 Estonia Presidential Award for this guidebook.

Neil Taylor previously ran a tour company specializing in the Baltics. He is the author of the Bradt guides to Estonia, Baltic Cities and Vilnius.
