From Tallinn, why not take a day trip to the western shore of Estonia? At Paldiski on the Pakri Peninsula, you can visit what was once a highly restricted military base. Now abandoned, you can explore the enormous 'Pentagon' complex, where the Soviet Union used to house its naval submarines.

Narva City Breaks
Narva, situated on the border with Russia, is a fascinatingly unique city well worth seeing on a tour of Estonia. Though it lies on the Estonian side of the Narva river, the city has a distinctively Russian look and feel to it, marking it out as somewhat of a cultural gem and a charming symbol of the East clashing with the West. Though much of the Narva Old Town was destroyed in World War II, the city still retains a historical appeal and is a wonderful place to stroll around. The prominent Narva Castle, which is mirrored by Ivangorod Castle on the Russian side of the river, dates back to the 15th-century while the Baroque town hall and 17th-century Swedish mansions provide a intriguing glimpse into this ancient settlement.
