June 6th
Tour to the mysterious South of Estonia

We travel through the tranquil landscape of Estonian south to the Lake Peipsi where the Old Believers from Russia found their safe haven from the persecutions in their home country in the 17th century. Until today, they have maintained their language (Old Russian), their religion, their style of building as well as their cooking and their ways of dealing with health issues through a healthy diet of fish and onion. Their villages look nothing like the surrounding Estonian countryside – as a very well adapted minority accepted into the cultural diversity of Estonia for three centuries they are worth to be discovered.

We will make acquaintance with their local delicacies.

The tour continues through the winding country roads and through virgin forests to Setomaa – with its tribal traditions within the Orthodox villages where witchcraft and healing are still held in high esteem. Some hiking through moors will whet your appetite to try the local version of afternoon herbal tea.

We can promise you a wonderful experience you would not think possible in a tiny European country.
