Traveler reviews
Jonathan Lau
★★★★★a month agoWe stopped by because we had free entry via the Tallinn Card. It was interesting. The submarine was very claustrophobic for my wife by my 9 year old daughter seemed to enjoy the climb through the cabins. There are some hands on exhibits for the kids and some fun things to do. However, we were in and out in less than 30 minutes. Still, it was definitely worth the visit.
Christopher Val
★★★★★2 months agoThe main reason to visit is the opportunity to go inside the submarine—it's not something you get to experience very often. The museum itself is well designed and offers plenty of interactive activities for children. Is it worth visiting? Absolutely. The overall presentation of the museum is excellent, and the submarine alone makes the visit worthwhile. The other exhibits, however, are not particularly impressive. You also have the chance to explore two historic ships docked at the pier, which is a nice bonus.
