I only visited the Kiek in de Kok part so can't comment on the Bastion area. Entry is €4.50 for one, or a joint ticket of €8.30 gets you into both attractions. This tower with the quirky name was built in 1475 and still has a number of cannonballs wedged in its outer walls if you look hard enough. Inside is a six storey museum detailing the medieval defences of the city. There are fine views from the upper levels. Some of the guards were a bit over keen with following my every movement, as if I was about to steal something. Apart from that this is a great introduction to the history of Tallinn.

Very easy to understand tour. Simple and suitable for all ages. Informative video beforehand then tour of the tunnels. Enjoyed the set up and walk through history. The train bit at the end was a bit..err.. pointless.The tower was good. Lots of displays and videos. Nice view of old town from the cafe on top floor.

Kiek in de Kok is a tower of the bastion what is surrounding the Old Town of Tallinn. During the time of the danish occupancy, 13th Century the guards was checking what was going on in the old town. (Schau in die Kueche). The visit is a trip back in centuries and the entrance fee is worse it.

Ideal to understand how the city got defended since Middle Age.The bastions are to be booked before you arrive. We really enjoyed the explanations of our guide. She took us back in time as we got deeper and deeper under ground, from the punk 80's to war period. Warning: avoid the bastions passages if you're claustrophobic!

NOTE: We only had time to visit the Bastion passage museum so this review only covers that part (the tunnel part).The exhibition starts with a video which seem to be aimed towards children up to 12 years of age. The ensuing walk down to the tunnel is in itself quite interesting. Unfortunately, not much of interest being told by the tour guide. Historical happenings are quickly brushed over.The tour ends with a "trip to the future" which is reached a futuriistic moving tube. Here again, a video, is displayed but the relevance to the tunnels totally escaped me.A display case showing "items found in the future" (a G-string...?) is just tacky and in poor taste.A shame as the tour in the tunnels definitely has potential.
