Booking through Klook is convenient, and the price is similar to the official prison website. Tallinn Prison is mainly an exhibition space without guided tours. It's the smallest prison in Estonia, requiring the shortest visit time, but the content is still unique and worth seeing. The English explanations are very clear.
The building itself is the main gem. The rest of it can easily be googled. There is a lack of thorough explanation on certain events. The receptionist today (November 28) appears to be not happy with her job as she wasn’t accomodating at all. I suggest a friendlier and more informative staff to be on the front desk.
I felt like there wasn't enough content for a museum. The highlight is supposed to be the KGB prison cell, but it's literally just the cell. The rest is just reading boards with explanations, so honestly, I got pretty bored.
