Walking into Tallinn

Hi - I think we may well be on the same cruise as a previous posting - mid-June, although many cruise ships stop there I know. (Royal Princess)

Does anyone know how far out of the Old Town the ships dock? We don%26#39;t want to pay out for a coach/guided tour, as we prefer when possible to explore by ourselves. Do most cruise ships run a shuttle bus into the main area? I know we can%26#39;t just wander through the docks unsupervised.

Looking at maps and Google Earth, it would seem possible to explore the Old Town relatively easily on foot?

Grateful for any advice.

Hi! You will see Old Town from the ship, you will recognize the towers. Just walk towards it - about 10 minutes walk from the harbour.

Thanks for that information. We dock about 9a.m. and leave at 3 p.m. so should be able to have a good stroll round in that timew. The photos I%26#39;ve seen of Tallinn look lovely.
