If you enjoy some local company and insights, and want to make sure to find the spots that appeal to you, it's a good idea to book a tour guide. You can contact Tartu Guides Association, which represents a multitude of local guides who offer tours in ten different languages. You can also visit the Tartu Tourist Information Centre for advice on choosing a guide. The cultural experts at Babelhouse provide Tartu tours and can also take you on an adventure beyond Tartu.
In Tartu, guided tours are generally not scheduled for individual visitors, so tours need to be booked in advance. Self guided walking tour maps are available at the Tartu Tourist Information Centre.
