What people say about Kullo-Kalev
"Great experience "
It was great to travel across Estonia and Latvia, visiting forest with mushrooms, wetlands, small villages and castles.
"TOUR OF THE FUNNY FAMILIES FROM HUNGARY"
WE SPENT 10 DAYS IN THE BALTIC COUNTRIES AND IT WAS ONE OF THE BEST EXPERIENCES WE TOOK PART. OUR GROUP CONSISTED PEOPLE FROM VERY DIFFERENT AGES FROM 7 TO 83 SO WE CAN MOVE SLOWLER THAN THE AVERAGE BUT OUR GUIDE, KULLO MANAGED THE SITUATION VERY WELL. HE SHOWED US A LOT OF INTERESTING THINGS AND TOLD US AMAZING STORIES ABOUT THE HISTORY OF HIS FAMILY. HE WAS A VERY WELL PREPARED GUIDE WITH A GREAT SENSE OF HUMOUR. WE WOULD LIKE TO THANK HIM FOR HIS WORK AND GUIDENCE! ALSO BEST REGARDS FOR ALL MEMBERS OF THE TRAVELLER TOURS. WISH YOU THE BEST!
"Very good"
Our driver and licensed guide, Kolo, did an outstanding job! He provided excellent, enriching guidance, made sure we reached every single stop along the way without missing a thing, and delivered top-notch service right up to the last moment.
"An excellent day out"
It was a big day full of variety. The guide was great and we learnt a lot. Highlights for me were the walk along the beach and the delicious lunch in the fishing village. I recommend it. It was well worth the money spent.
"Smooth & Polished"
Our tour guide and driver, Kullo, is warm, enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and deeply dedicated. Highly expressive and energetic, he goes out of his way to accommodate everyone's needs while passionately sharing the rich history and culture of his country.
"Captivating, unique tour to Narva"
Kullo took us on an incredibly interesting tour across Estonia to Narva. We stopped at a very well-preserved castle along the way (from the 1400s, I believe) as well as Sillamae, a town with a fascinating history (including resort town, Soviet occupied uranium enrichment facility, Nazi occupied town, etc.) Narva was so interesting, and we spent an hour walking along the river separating Estonia and Russia, learning about the castles there as well as the past and current relationship between the two countries. I highly recommend this tour. Kullo is passionate about the history and shares it in a captivating manner. Many people aren't drawn to touring Narva, because it is not a typical European big city or quaint European town. But learning about the Soviet history, Estonia's recent independence, and all the country has endured was so eye-opening, and we really enjoyed seeing the beautiful Estonian countryside on the way. Wonderful, unique tour!
"Packed it all in "
I created a long list of options for our 5 hour custom tour and our guide figured out a way to cover all of it! It was great to have a van to get around the city and see sights outside of old town. Our guide was born in Tallinn so that was special to have a local with interesting family stories going back to his great grandparents. Tip - bring snacks and drinks; build in time for a short break; also good if guide can provide water in the car.
"A personalized, informative, and engaging tour of Narva"
we are back from Narva tour and had a very interesting day. Kullo is a real good guide who are listening to our wishes and did his absolut best to show us all interesting places in and around Narva. We got much better understanding of Estonian way of living and thinking and about Estonian history.
"Beautiful day tour"
I can only recommend doing this tour if you are in Tallin and want to see the beautiful nature of Estonia. Every stop was beautiful and Kullo was such a nice guide, who could answer every question and was really passionate about nature and the estonian culture. The organisers even found a space for another group, who was ditched by another company and who got the possibility to experience the tour with us. That was really good service. I had a really nice tour
"Cool day with Kullo"
We enjoyed our sightseeing day with Kullo! We learned a lot about Estonia along the way!!He was very knowledgeable about the history and nature of Estonia. He made the day fun for all of us!
"Great roadtrip"
This tour changes the concept of a travel day. It has everything from bobslee track (so much more interesting than one could imagine), nature, old towns and castles. The lunch stop at the brewery was very nice. Our guide told us a lot about nature and the history of both Latvia and Estonia. This is the best way to travel between Riga and Tallinn
" An ideal tour for us"
We joined a private tour with some rather specific interests. At the start, our guide asked what we were interested in and tailored the program to incorporate our wishes. By hearing about the guide’s family and personal experiences, we were able to gain a real insight into life in Estonia. Thank you very much.
"Super value and personal tour with a passionate host"
We didn’t want to just catch a bus or plane to get from Tallin to Riga and this tour seemed like a great way to make a day of it and see parts of Latvia and Estonia that we’d miss. We had a great time. We enjoyed meeting our other travellers from NYC who were great company and our host, Kullo , clearly had a passion for both countries, their history and environment. The van was very modern and comfortable. Totally recommended!
"Beautiful day"
It was cold, windy and sunny day, our program was very nice with lot of informations about the country and the the nature. Thanks
"Super fun tour!"
I loved getting the chance to see more of Estonia outside Tallinn. The sea, the big, and the forest were beautiful. Kullo was so friendly and knowledgeable, definitely a highlight of my trip.
"A great way to see a different side to Estonia "
We had a brilliant day out in the countryside and it was lovely getting away from the crowds in Tallinn. The nature of Estonia is beautiful, we especially enjoyed seeing the bog land and the beach side forest and being shown how to forage. Our guide was fantastic, so knowledgeable and enthusiastic and we even got a great little history lesson over lunch (which was also fab). If you want a deeper dive into Estonia I’d highly recommend.
""Estonia live" - simply great!"
Great tour with wonderful tourguide - thank you for all the great moments on the Lahemaa tour!
"Nature & history"
It was a very nice trip! Just 3 guests and the guide Kollo, who did the trip with passion! We learned a lot about Estonia, the nature and the history! We saw a variety of things and time flew by!
"Best day of our holiday"
The tour was on the first day of a slight thawing of the ice and snow - actually edged above zero degrees. There were 7 of us, from different countries and we bonded quickly! The frozen waterfall was almost ethereal and the snowy bog walk a fun challenge and so interesting to learn about the importance of the bogs and lakes. The high point for us was the forest walk (and impromptu village swing. The forest was again so interesting and peaceful and ended with a walk on a snow covered beach and onto the sea with waves frozen in time. Very surreal. Throughout the guide, Kullo, was simply awesome. He was so passionate about his country and its nature and provided an insight you would not get from a book. I think we were lucky to have such a lovely group of people but anyone visiting Tallinn should take this tour.
"Wonderful Experience "
This tour was a must for us. We learned a lot from the Latvian an Estonian culture and history. Kullo, our guide, gave us a masterclass of history and geopolitics. It was amazing. My sons and me enjoyed so much. All we visit during our way to Tallin was beautiful. The Ice Park for training in Latvia, The Gauja Park, the detailled explanation about the sandstones and clifts, Cesis Castle, the frozen lake, the swing in the last stop we had. Kullo took the time to explain everything in detail and give us a great and unforgetable living and learning experience. 100% recommended. Best way of traveling from Riga to Tallin and know you were not going to see on the regular bus or plane.
"Adventures in tbe snow"
We had the most amazing day. standing inside a frozen waterfall. Trekking through a near silent bog and woodland in the snow and making snow angels on a frozen lake. Kullo our guide was extremely awesome in both his knowledge and Estonian history and he made the day even more special. Thank you Kullo.
"Excellente journée avec notre guide"
Bien qu’étant en plein hiver avec des températures très en dessous de zéro nous avons eu une formidable expérience avec Mike notre guide qui a pris la peine de se déplacer alors que nous étions les deux seuls clients! Notre tour était donc privatisé. 9 heures passés ensemble avec vraiment une attention et gentillesse de tout instant, de très belles balades en forêt et au bord de la mer gelée à la nuit tombée
"Fantastic way to experience a slice of the Baltic region. "
Our guide went above and beyond to show us the amazing sights on our bus trip from Riga to Tallin. Wonderful trip. Thanks Kullo!
"Best way to travel between Tallinn and Riga"
Our tour was very informative and Kullo told lots of local stories along the way. It was a great way to travel to see smaller towns and the countryside of Estonia and Latvia. Kullo kept us entertained with lots of jokes and we would highly recommend this tour to others.
"Eclectic sites in a fascinating area"
We had a tour with Kullo, who took us to Viljandi, a bog right near the Estonian/Latvian border, lunch at Valmiermuižas alus darītava, and the bobsled track at Sigulda. The bog was fascinating, as we'd never visited an area like that before. At Sigulda, we saw an actual competition, with Skeleton athletes flying by at 120km per hour. Kullo gave us a ton of historic information about Estonia and its people, and we learned quite a bit along our drive. Overall we had a great time.
"Great way to travel Tallinn to Riga"
We had a lovely drive with Kullo and learned about the history of Estonia and Latvia. As there were just two of us, we had some choices with regard to the places we visited. We stopped at Viljandi and visited the castle, walked through a lovely forest and saw the sand cliffs, stopped for a delicious Latvian lunch and visited the bobsled track. He was willing to take us more places too. In all, it was a great way to see the countryside and get from Tallinn to Riga!
"Brilliant soggy boggy day"
Rained all day but that didn't deter our nature loving guide, Kullo, from giving us the full Estonian experience of the forests and unique peat bog.
"Wonderful PRIVATE Tour Riga-Parnu-Tallinn"
I highly recommend making this a private tour to enable flexibility. My guide and I were able to take the time we wanted to see the sights. Parnu was fabulous, not many tourists from outside of the Baltics visit, but I highly recommend! Kullo was great! He was on time, kind, and provided just the right information about Estonia - sometimes guides can be info overload - I felt Kullo provided me with a fabulous dose of history and cultural facts during our day long trek!
"Fantastic way to get from Tallinn to Riga!"
Rather than a boring bus ride along a highway between Tallinn and Riga, our family joined Kullo for a wonderful tour through some of the most interesting and beautiful parts of Estonia and Latvia. From lovely old castle towns with their interesting histories and architecture, to a walk through a nature reserve and the bobsled track with a group of youngsters practising. Lunch along the way at a microbrewery was also a well placed (and yummy 😋). Guide Kullo was passionate and knowledgeable, and being local, gave great perspective on both what we were seeing and the history that sat behind it. A long and brilliant day!!
"September 2025 visit "
We made stops at the Jagala waterfall, did a walk at Altja Maratha along the shoreline & in the forest, had lunch at Altja Korts, visited the manor house Sagadi Mõisa, & finally did a walk through Viru Bog. Along the way Kullo provided us with information about the places that included both the geology and geography as well as. The social history. Kullo was knowledgeable and friendly. We enjoyed his tour and would recommend it to anyone interested in these subjects.
"Interesting and enjoyable"
Kullo was a great guide - very proud of Estonia and very good knowledge and interest in history and nature. I could have done without the manor house visit although the attached nature museum was excellent.
"Great Tour"
Great Tour to the nationsl park. Trip includes everything from visit to the seaside, forest and especially the bog. Our guide provided a lot of information and answered all our questions. The small group makes it an intensive experience.
"Interesting Tour about Estonian landscapes and history"
We had a very interesting day with Kullo. He showed us some beautiful Estonian landscapes (Waterfall, beach, cliffs,...) and told us about the Estonian history. At the beginning of the tour we've watched some fortifications and some very nice places near Tallinn. After a tipical Estonian lunch we went to Rummu Quarry, where we could take a bath. At the end, Kullo brought us to an old military plane, where we could go in. During the tour we had the possibility to ask questions about Estonia. It was a really nice experience! Thank you!
"Amazing tour through the countryside of two beautiful countries!"
We had such a great day being guided by Kullo. He was knowledgeable and had great suggestions of what we could see along the way. Everything was timely and we arrived into Riga at a great time in the evening!
"Beautiful day in the nature"
Kullo was a perfect guide to the wonderful Estonian nature. He gave us a lot of useful information and allowed us time to enjoy the surroundings. The trip takes you through beautiful destinations, and even the restaurant for lunch was excellent.
"Amazing trip"
Amazing day trip with our guide Kullo. We made several stops in the nature and in the towns. Each time, Kullo gave a lot of information about Estonia and the different places. Highly recommended.
"Excellent way to travel to Riga"
We decided to take the transfer tour Riga because we had such a great time with Johanna on the Lahemma National Park tour. The transfer tour was brilliant. We had a great guide in Kullo who shared his impressive knowledge of the history of Estonia and Latvia. The bonus was that he also is an expert on everything in the natural world, which transformed our visit to the bog into a voyage of discovery. I can't recommend Travellers tours and our guide Kullo highly enough.
"Tolle Erfahrung in entspannter Atmosphäre "
Ich kann diese Tour nur empfehlen. Es war ein interessanter und entspannter Ausflug mit vielen Eindrücken und Einsichten in die estonische Natur, Kultur und Geschichte. Unser Tourguide Kullo war mit Engagement dabei. Nicht zu vergessen, das superleckere, estonische Mittagessen.
"Coastal Cliffs & Rummu Quarry Day Tour - Amazing day trip, highly recommended!"
The day trip was amazing - perfect for anyone interested in Estonian nature, culture and history. We also had lunch at a cozy, countryside-style Estonian restaurant, which was a charming addition to the experience (not included in the tour price). The tour guides Kullo and Kert guided us throughout the day and did a fantastic job. They were both knowledgeable about the region and its history, and managed the time really well. Kullo was the driver for my group, and he kept us engaged with great conversation and fun facts during the tour. Plus, I was impressed that he speaks Portuguese and we could chat about other topics - at the end, we barely noticed that time flew by. Highly recommended!
"Lahemaa is a beautiful and Scenic destination"
I have never used Traveller Tours before, but now that I have, I would recommend them. Kullo, who was our guide was the driver and guide. He did a fantastic job of showing us the scenery, talking about the history, culture, and answering all our silly questions. On a busy summer weekend, we were bumped off our previous Lahemaa tour with Viator, but we happened upon the guide working for Traveller. We did not regret our decision to go to the National park. The bonus was that it was slightly cheaper than the viator tour. The food at the Park lodge was good and authentic. Very worth it (not included in tour price).
"A great day in Nature"
Yes, it was amazing !!! The tour really exceeded than my expectations and I and my wife will remember it for a long time. Mr.Kullo is a very knowledgeable guide who really loves the nature and his explanations were very helpful, especially the ones about the nature and history of Estonia. In addition, Walking trail of "Viru bog" was unforgettable in my life. Great ending to our 40th anniversary tour in Estonia. Thank you Kullo !!!
"Fabulous nature tour! Unforgettable!!"
Amazing spots and with an enthusiastic guide Kullo, we had a great experience visiting the scenic spots and nature parks!
"Lahemaa National Park Tour"
This tour was a fantastic way to see some of Estonia’s most beautiful natural spots in one day. From forest walks and bog trails to waterfalls and coastal views, the route was well chosen and varied. Each stop gave us time to enjoy the surroundings without feeling rushed. Our guide, Kullo, was excellent, friendly and knowledgeable. He gave interesting context throughout the day and was happy to answer any questions. I’d definitely recommend this tour.
"Great day trip"
Overall a great day trip with easy pick up and then Lahemaa NP with the Baltic Sea around it, the bogs, bog lake and a short pit stop in the end for the waterfall.
"Discovery of a part of Estonia "
Pretty good paysage, good guide with good explanation and beautiful bogs, i recommend to swim on it
"Super tour in the Park "
Super experience in the Park but this is mainly due to our guide Kullo. He knows a lot of things about the estonian culture but also about the nature. We learned a lot, i recommande this activity.
"Seeing the countryside from Tallinn to Riga"
We decided to drive instead of taking the train from Tallinn to Riga to see the countryside. Kullo was a great guide and gave us lots of information - we stopped in Viljandi and had a great tour - I would suggest maybe having an early lunch here as we didn’t end up eating till after 3pm. It was a long day but worth it!
"Fantastic day outside of Tallin"
I had so much fun on this trip. Kullo was our guide, and he had so much to tell us about Estonia's bogs and forests and how the Estonian people used them.. I also recommend visiting places outside Tallinn to experience more of Estonia.
"The best way to travel from Tallinn to Riga"
This tour was exactly what we were looking for to transfer from Tallinn to Riga. It gave us time to see more of the 2 countries in a relaxed tour. Our guide Kullo was wonderful. He was patient, flexible and knowledgeable of the areas.
"Great day"
The guide was fantastic. I went solo and was completely comfortable. Great information, beautiful hiking and sites. Highly recommend!
"A real winter adventure"
We went to the Lahemaa National Park in January, knowing that we would walk through a bog - what we didn't expect is that the footbridge is just two planks wide and has no hand rail. We had lots of fun walking on the icy bridge trying not to fall into the water, but it might not be the right thing for people who are easily startled, at least not in winter :) The fishing village was very picturesque, we even had a close encounter with a fox. Our guide was very passionate about nature and able to share this passion in a very convincing way.
"Not to be missed tour"
Kullo was an excellent driver and host. He has excellent knowledge of the area and although it is a 12 hour day from Riga to Tallinn he never fails to try his best to make the tour enjoyable for me and my family. We truly enjoyed the trip. His knowledge and insight of the area and the whole itinerary and chosen stop points were amazing. Thank you again Kullos for the memorable trip.
"A great day in the Estonia countryside "
The Laheema National Park day tour was a really enjoyable experience and our guide Kullo was a really nice person and explained in detail the bogs natural landscapes and other interesting facts about the Estonian forests. Even though it was really cold the day passed by and we enjoyed every minute of it. Would highly recommend this day tour to anyone
"Amazing Private Tour"
We had the privilege of having Kullo as our guide for the day. Kullo must have researched & found a quaint place for our lunch. Delicious 😋 Kullo is very knowledgeable, totally immersed in nature & outdoors. His detailed explaination of the vegetation & forraging held we Asians who are uncomfortable with the cold in curiosity & ease! We had an extended day at Jagala Fall, Lahamee Reserve, the Mansion & the straits btw Tallinn & Helsinki! A great & worthy exploration. Big thank you to Kullo & Traveller.ee ❤️
"Lahemaa National Park Day Tour"
The day trip to Lahemaa was a great experience! We had a very small tour (only three people!) and our tour guide Kullo was super great with customizing the tour for what we wanted. It was a really fun day and I highly recommend this tour!
"Magnifique nature"
Excursion variée effectuée en basse saison et donc en tout petit groupe de 3 personnes. La tourbière est d une beauté envoûtante et la promenade entre forêt et mer est très belle. Merci à Kullo pour son accompagnement sympathique et intéressant.
"A wonderful daytrip at laahema national park"
It was wonderful! The guide took us on a tour at our own pace and knew a lot or things about the history and natural fauna of the countryside. I was delighted to try swimming in the bog water. It was a great day for me and my mother. The Laahema Park was beautifull. We ate lunch at the restaurant advised. Really good too. I recommand this tour if you are still trying to decide.
"Lovely Visit to Lahemaa"
The transport vehicle was clean, comfortable and up to date with seat belts. The driver guide was relaxed, pleasant and pretty well informed. Lunch was very nice. The park is beautiful and well worth the visit!
"Brilliant trip exploring the nature of Estonia "
The guide was amazing he took time to explain everything to us and really immersed us in Estonian nature and culture. Thank you for a great day .
"Good tour"
The tour gives you a good chance to see a bit of the beautiful Estonian nature. Our guide was great, very knowgledgeable about the forest, mushrooms, different berries etc. I do think, that the manor is a bit unnecessary in this tour though, takes up some time, that could be spent on some more exploring.
"A day well spent"
If you love nature and adventure it should be in your to-do list. The tourleader was very well informed and a pleasure to be with. The highlight of the day was the waterfall and the forest. A warning: For elderly people this tour might include a lot of walking. However, the guide was very considerate about this and he ensure to satisfy all the walking styles of the whole group.
"Best of Both Worlds"
We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of Tallinn and Lahemaa Park. Kullo was an excellent guide. He shared lots of interesting history with us in the city and catered the walk to our interests. We loved the national park and getting out into nature. The swim in the bog was incredible. It was a really unique landscape. We also enjoyed the waterfall and singing grounds. The whole day was excellent and we really appreciated getting picked up and dropped off at the cruise terminal so we could enjoy as much of the tour as possible. Absolutely would recommend!
"Great tour"
Very nice and enthousiastic guide. He takes his time to show us the best places and gave a lot of details about the nature. And the Lahemaa national parc and the bog were beautiful.
