Tallinn, Riga, and Klaipeda
11-10-2009, 02:32 PM
I am going to roll to this region next year.
Which is better overall (girls, nightlife, culture, beauty, food, etc)?
How do they compare?
Best time of year to go? I am thinking May/June.
If I go for two weeks, I am thinking of checking just one. Or are they small enough where I would get bored and need to see two or three?
Thanks.

I stayed in Tallinn for a few months in 2002.
Maybe I used to drink a little heavier. Details wise a lot of those cities kind of run together in my brain.
Tallinn was a nice port city though. I was there Jan-Mar and it was bloody cold.
If you do get bored, one thing I specifically remember was how cool the ferry system coming out of Estonia was. You could go all over the place. I had a thing with a girl in Helsinki and I either feriied it over there or she came and saw me.
Lots of blond girls in that part of the world.
Aloha!

Did you swoop mad girls there?
How were costs?

You'll have time to hit all 3. Despite being the capital, Tallinn isn't a very big city and you can see it in 2-3 days. Riga is the same, albeit a bit bigger. I can't comment on Klaipeda as I've never been there.
I'd suggest adding Tartu, Estonia to the itinerary, if only to break up the trip.
I think late Spring is probably the best time to visit this region (late March/early April). Everyone sort of jumps the gun with the change of weather and girls wear practically nothing.
