Two Baltic Gems: Helsinki & Tallinn with Ben Green

Enjoy our live Monday Night Travel party with this video recorded on June 23, 2025.

Separated by a two-hour ferry, Helsinki and Tallinn are not only neighbors, but soul sisters. These two capitals share an east-meets-west mélange of cultures, a spirit of resilience, and a deep love of saunas. Resident east-of-the-Rhine expert Ben Green is ready to share his perfect two-city itinerary. In Helsinki, we join Finns on the historic fort Suomenlinna and commemorate their struggle for independence, while in Tallinn we ramble picturesque medieval walls and soak in a hipster reincarnation of a Soviet warehouse district. Hop in the sauna with us for a journey to beautiful Baltic Europe!
