This review is about the new Kalamaja Uhhaa tour. The word Uhhaa means Mixed Fish Soup and that's what the tour will give you - a bit of local history, fun facts about new and old, with a twist that brings you cool street art with all its symbolism. On this free-form tour with energetic young art lovers as guides, you'll be finding out all the things about Tallinn you didn't even know you could find out! Highly recommended for locals and visitors.
Loved the insight into the varied and colourful murals, installations and street art pieces that the enthusiastic guide provided over a 2 hour walkabout in Tallinn's Telliskivi Creative City district. It was a close walk from the train station and easy to get to. And with the many eateries, shops and bars in the district, later we could spend more time discovering the other attractions there.
The guide was well spoken and provided interesting perspectives on the content, context and origin of the art.
Thanks for a great time.
Could Bernt Notke predict in the 15th century, that in the 21st-century people will talk about selfi-death? On the Tallinn’s Psedo tour’s on the Telliskivi area we get the answers. These 1,5 hours were very interesting, funny, and educating time to spend. If you like to see a bit different Tallin, then you have to take this tour ☝️
The tour was super cool, the guide this time, Hanna, knows every single detail of the pieces of art in Teliskivi, Tallinn, their story, their meaning, and their artists. I go to Teliskvi almost every day and I was actually really surprised that I haven't seen these arts, sometimes it is good that we stop to appreciate art, to think, to rediscover the world and especially, ourselves, I highly recommend it.
As a native person living in Tallinn I was not excepting to be this surprised by a lot of the street art i've never even seen (where have my eyes been??) in Telliskivi area. Really loved to get the backstories as well and some pieces got an even deeper meaning now. I would recommend this tour to not just tourists but even to those who live in the area, you would be surprised to learn how many amazing pieces you have missed! Loved to learn about the artists and a lot of the information our lovely tour guide provided would be impossible to gather just by googling.
