Kopli - Tallinn's last shantytown!

It wasn't too long ago that some parts of Kopli were a regular feature on police broadcasts. Endless fires, drug problems, prostitution and daily violence made it an area where honest people did not venture. In reality, it's no longer even close to being an area that should be avoided or feared. New developments have been completed on the infamous Kopli lines, and new, progressive people have settled in. However, alongside the new developments, there are still a few alleyways where the atmosphere harks back to previous decades and which you might not want to wander into alone in the darkHurry, Kopli is on the verge of big changes! It's no longer what it was five years ago, and soon it won't be what it is today. It's the last chance to explore the Kopli of yesteryear, where tsarist-era gems stand alongside sad-looking shacks of questionable appearance.

"The birthday tour in Kopli was simply wonderful — it couldn’t have gone any better! Everything was perfect, from the very first email reply to the end of the hike. The sunny, spring weekend made it even more special! :) You took care of everything for me — I just had to show up and enjoy it, completely stress-free. I’m very happy, thank you so much!"
