ESTONIA. Europe for a great price should be this tiny country’s tagline, and it’s leading the charge in an overall tourism increase to the Baltic region.
Start in Tallinn, where fairytale architecture wows in this medieval old town. Wander the ancient streets, pop by the plethora of museums and churches, and then venture to the country’s most famous national parks – Matsalu, Vilsandi and Lahemaa.
These are prided for their wildlife populations that include enormous moose, wild boar, grey seals and, in Matsalu specifically, hundreds of species of birds, spotted best from the watchtowers built for just this purpose.
