Watch Out For
⚠️Old Town
📋 The Bottom Line
Tallinn combines medieval charm with digital-age infrastructure. The UNESCO Old Town sits on Toompea Hill with cobblestones and narrow streets that are tough for strollers. However, the modern city areas are well-planned, the tram system is decent, and Estonia's digital society means excellent family facilities. Estonian culture is reserved but helpful, and the city is safe and clean. Kadriorg Park is perfect for stroller walks.
