Mariel Tour Guide

Mariel is a biologist by education and a nature lover at heart. Long before her studies, she found joy in exploring the outdoors—something that still drives her today. Life has taken her across different countries, thanks to a mix of studies, internships, and curiosity about the world. She loves discovering new cultures, meeting people, and soaking up the unique vibe of every place she visits. When she is not guiding tours, you’ll probably find her singing in a choir or out on a scenic drive, chasing beautiful landscapes.

What people say about Mariel

Certificate of Excellence by TripAdvisor

"very personal and insightfull tour"

It was a really unique and individual tour we got trough the Lahemaa park and all the stops we made. I appreaciated all the stories from a local and we had a lot of space to ask and get interesting answers (about the park, the locations, the history, the current culture, the daily life, the nature, the food, the politics and much more). And we had very beautiful autumn weather - I love the smell in the woods and the bog. This made my Tallinn-Trip much richer, a step outside the city and greater perspective.

"5 Tastes of Estonian Food"

I had a wonderful afternoon food tour with Mariel. I was totally full at the end. I had not previously had any of these local foods before. It was fun just to walk around the market and stop in shops I never would have done otherwise. And the area of Tallinn that we were walking was also interesting. Mariel was very accommodating to me, as I was moving slowly due to an accident. And a plus is to learn about her life in Tallinn.

"Not quite the Crests Run"

The beauty of this trip was the variety we experienced, From the two medieval cities we saw to the landmark border symbol and finally the bobsleigh run. Very knowledgeable guide and great group of passengers

"Lovely tour with a very likeable guide"

Such a good decision to take this tour. We learned so much. Our guide was very friendly, open and patient. She was very knowledgeable about the biology and culture and answered all our questions. She even told us quite a few fun facts from Estonian culture. Also, the places were really cool, especially the Viru bog and the hike at the Altja coast line and fishing village. 100% recommended!

"Excellent tour guide"

If you are interested in tasting local foods this is an excellent way to do so.

"Tallinn Food Tour through kalamaja"

Mariel was wonderful. After inquiring about our likes and dislikes, she took us on a tasty tour filled with many experiences. She was friendly and upbeat and knew all the places well. It was like having a trusted friend take you out for a fun afternoon.
