We also did a tour of Talinn. It was not expensive, because the town is small, but worth every penny. In fact because of the tour, it was one of our favorite stops. The woman who led the tour gave us her family's personal experience of the **** occupation. History really came alive for my family speaking with this tour guide.

I was in your friend's shoes last year. Our son (11 yrs) had an expired Russian passport and we had also heard that you needed to travel to Russian using the Russian passport. I posted about it here and on Disboards and found someone who had been the year before and had no problem with her child traveling on her US passport. We checked with the tour group we were using in Russia and they said it wouldn't be a problem -- and it wasn't. No delays on entering Russia.

I would move ahead with the trip.

 

The next day is provisionally Land of Legends

which looks like a Danish Plimoth Plantation sort of place.

 

We are also planning on spending a day at Land Of Legends but don't travel until July. Please post a review!

We did a canoe trip in a state park with DCL. It was amazing.

These are great suggestions! Thank you.

Please keep them coming...

We are on the Disney Magic cruising to the Baltics this summer. My 11 yr old son enjoys anything that involves animals so I would like to find some animal-oriented excursions for us. I've seen one with reindeer and horseback riding -- unfortunately you have to be 12. Any suggestions?

We are on that cruise and would love to join your FB group!

Anyone who sailed to the Baltics with Disney back in 2010? I'd love to hear about the excursions, particularly in Russia. I'm booked on the July 2015 trip and I'm filled with anticipation about what the excursions might be. I feel like I read somewhere about a fabulous one in St Petersburg -- a ball at midnight?!
