Estonia
2 tours from £1,895pp
One of Northern Europe’s best-kept secrets, Estonia is a land of medieval cities, enchanting forests and ancient traditions. Cultural riches shine through folk music, colourful handicrafts, and the poetic beauty of the Estonian language, whilst the country’s time as a Soviet state has produced a wealth of fascinating historic sights. Bursting with charm, capital Tallinn has it all; from the legends and stories hidden in the Old Town’s walls to the picturesque scenery of the Danish King’s Garden, this fairy tale city is a must-visit.
A symbol of expression and identity in Estonia, crafts and textiles are a prominent part of the country’s culture. The Limbazu Tine is one of the rare producers of ethnographic fabrics based on authentic samples of Baltic cultural heritage, whilst Eesti Käsitöö Kodu – the largest handicraft centre in Estonia – offers a selection of traditional, high-quality clothes and handiwork. You can visit these attractions and learn more about Estonia’s crafting history on our fantastic Stitchtopia holiday.
