ESCORTED SMALL GROUP TOURS TO ESTONIA

Estonia - for a country that has seen so much invasion and subjugation so frequently from a multitude of foreign powers throughout its history, Estonia is in remarkably good shape. Time and again, Estonian borders have been traversed and most of its European neighbours have at one point or another attempted to conquer the Baltic nation with varying degrees of success. Scandinavian Vikings, Soviet Russians, Nazi Germans, Danes, Swedes, Poles and the Teutonic Knights are among the hosts of peoples who have ventured into Estonian territory over the ages, some holding dominion over the land and people for several centuries, and yet the independent Estonia of today displays very little physical scarring, considering its tumultuous history. In actual fact, parts of Estonia's urban and rural areas nowadays often gain worldwide recognition for being some of the best-preserved historic sites in Europe.
