The idea of Wanderest…

The idea of Wanderest came to fruition in the winter/spring season of 2018, but the germination of the idea goes back many years. We enjoy touring Estonia and other countries and are always seeking to tap into the deeper levels of places than mass tourism usually allows for. Wanderest grew from the idea and wish to share the hidden gems of Estonia.

We value clean and untouched…

We value clean and untouched nature and find that a person is only able to care about and respect that which they really know or which they have a deeper connection with. We wish to introduce the beautiful nature and multifaceted cultural history of Estonia and offer memorable encounters with nature so that more people would become aware of their surroundings and would learn to appreciate and understand it.

PRINCIPLES

Our trips and company are founded on three following principles:

Individuality

As every client is unique, nature is also different every day. We want the time in Estonian nature to be unforgettable and thrilling for every person, and to have the trips be achievable for everyone, regardless of their age or origin. In order to make every journey a special experience, we will keep the groups small, so that we could take into account the individual wishes and traits of every wanderer.

Authenticity

Life in Estonia is, in one way or another, intertwined with nature. That is why we will take you to places that do not leave neither local nor guest indifferent, and introduce customs and lifestyles specific to locals (such as sauna, gathering, swimming in a bog-lake etc.). We feel that it is important to leave room for spontaneity – it is what makes every single journey unique. We are not afraid to step off the beaten track and show you some unpolished facets of Estonian life.

Education

Our guides are experienced young people, well-versed in the nature, culture and history of Estonia. During the journeys, you will be able to familiarise yourself with Estonian nature and hear exciting stories of local life. All the discussions will be carried out in a personal and dialogised manner, in an immediate setting. We follow the principles of sustainability in our activities and hope to inspire others with this mindset.

OUR PEOPLE

Our guides are young wanderers and experienced hikers who know the most interesting places in Estonia like the back of their hands and are open to share them with you.

About us

We offer personalised guided treks to mystical untouched bogs, forests and other beautiful natural habitats of Estonia. We map out a custom journey together with the client into Estonian wilderness and regions of cultural importance.

Meist

Tutvustame Eestimaa kaunist loodust ja mitmetahulist kultuurilugu ning pakume meeldejäävaid looduselamusi, et üha rohkem inimesi saaksid teadlikumaks end ümbritsevast ja õpiksid seda mõistma ja väärtustama.

Matkad

Rännakul räätsadega või jalgsi avastame Eesti looduse ilu ja võlu kogu tema mitmekesisuses. Rändame sissetallatud radadel, kuid külastame ka paiku, kuhu inimese jalg nii tihti ei satu.
