The Tallinn 3-Hour Estonian Food Tour is a guided walking tasting route in Estonia's capital that links the medieval Old Town with the Baltic Station Market (Balti Jaama Turg) in the Kalamaja district. The tour is run by Food Sightseeing Estonia and is sold through Expedia and Travelocity, so the listing is a resale of that operator's walk rather than a direct booking page.

A walking tour of Estonian flavours linking the Old Town with the Baltic Station Market, with around seven tastings and a guide covering local food history. Hotel pickup and guide gratuity are not included.

The Tallinn 3-Hour Estonian Food Tour is a guided walking tasting route in Estonia's capital that links the medieval Old Town with the Baltic Station Market (Balti Jaama Turg) in the Kalamaja district. The tour is run by Food Sightseeing Estonia and is sold through Expedia and Travelocity, so the listing is a resale of that operator's walk rather than a direct booking page. The meeting point is in the Old Town and is confirmed at the time of booking. The route lasts about 3 hours 15 minutes and covers roughly seven food and drink stops, which makes it one of the more substantial tasting walks on offer in Tallinn. Stops include a medieval-style tavern, a local cafe, a chocolate shop and the stalls of Balti Jaama Turg, a converted market hall beside the railway station that is known for local producers and street food. The balance leans savoury, with traditional Estonian dishes and rye bread-based snacks, and sweet moments come from the chocolate and cafe stops. A tasting of local craft beer or schnapps is included, and the guide explains how Estonian cuisine developed from peasant staples, Hanseatic trade and Soviet-era shortages into the current focus on local and seasonal produce. Included in the price are the food and drink tastings and the local guide. Not included are hotel pickup and the guide gratuity. Groups are capped at 12 people, which keeps the pace conversational and makes it easier for the guide to adapt to questions. Tours are run in English. The price is listed at about 119 euros (roughly 137 US dollars) per adult, placing it at the upper end of Tallinn food tours, reflecting the number of stops and the length. The walk covers cobbled Old Town streets and then continues toward the market district, so comfortable shoes are important. Visitors with dietary restrictions should mention them when booking, because tastings at traditional venues often feature pork, dairy, rye and fish. The tour runs year-round, and the Old Town section is atmospheric in both summer and the winter Christmas-market season.
