Explore one of Estonia's most unusual landscapes on a private day tour from Tallinn combining dramatic coastline, waterfalls, Soviet history and the surreal scenery of Rummu.


Begin with Keila Waterfall, one of Estonia's most impressive waterfalls, set in a peaceful historic manor park. Continue along the northern coast towards the Pakri Peninsula, where dramatic limestone cliffs and Baltic Sea views create some of the region's most spectacular scenery.


Discover hidden remains of Peter the Great's Naval Fortress, including massive concrete structures and underground passages built as part of Estonia's historic coastal defence system. Some walking and fitness ability is recommended for exploring this area.


Continue through Paldiski, a former Soviet military town, before reaching the highlight of the tour – Rummu Submerged Quarry. The former limestone quarry and prison complex has been flooded with clear turquoise water, creating one of Estonia's most unique and photographed landscapes.


Climb the sandy ash hills for panoramic views over the quarry, with the climb being optional depending on your fitness level and preferences.


A lunch break at a local restaurant is also included in the itinerary, with lunch available at your own expense.
