Ever think you'd find the best fried chicken in Helsinki, Finland? Neither did we. KotKot's owner was once a working chef at the famous NOMA restaurant in New York City. A must try while visiting the city!

Tallinn, Estonia. This is without a doubt, one of Europes most underrated cities. It is also one of the best preserved Medieval towns in all of Europe. Best part is, it is only a two hour ferry ride from Helsinki, so it could easily be a day trip! We recommend taking the Tallink ferry. HOT TIP: Download the Tallink app for tickets.
