A travel program in Tallinn doesn’t have to consist only of city tours, museums, and dinner. For a smaller tourist group, a calm and hands-on activity where you can make something yourself and take it home from the trip can be a great fit.
A women’s club group from Finland participated in a Home Spa workshop at Örreke’s Old Town studio. The group was on a two-day trip to Tallinn and was looking for a creative activity that would be practical, fun, and a bit different at the same time. The group reached Örreke through Estravel.
The group’s wish was to find a hands-on and active activity for their Tallinn trip that would fit well with the rest of the program. Since the group’s accommodation was in the Old Town, Örreke’s studio on Kuninga Street was a perfect fit.
From Örreke’s wide selection of workshops, the Home Spa workshop was chosen. This gave participants the chance to get involved, gain new knowledge, and make natural body care products for themselves.
The group of 12 fit comfortably in the studio, as the Old Town studio is suitable for up to 15 people. Participants were also able to bring their own snacks, which made the workshop a pleasant part of the travel day.
The workshop was conducted in Finnish so that the participants could easily understand the instructions and feel at ease.
In the Home Spa workshop, participants made a total of four spa products. The activity was practical but also educational. Participants learned about the ingredients used and saw how body care products are made from simple and natural components.
The finished spa products were packed into beautiful bags made from recycled materials. This way, every participant took home a personal gift from the workshop, either for themselves, a friend, or family at home.
The ingredients used in the Home Spa workshop are natural and eco-certified. One important ingredient is shea butter, which reaches Örreke through the NGO Mondo. Mondo is a long-term partner of Örreke, and this collaboration supports the development of women’s entrepreneurship in Ghana.
This adds a broader meaning to the workshop. Participants don’t just make body care products; they take part in an activity where creativity, natural materials, recycling, and responsible consumption meet.
The workshop was fun and educational. The format worked well for a smaller travel group because everyone could participate, ask questions, and take the finished products with them.
This kind of workshop is suitable for tour operators looking for a practical additional activity for their group’s Tallinn program, as well as for groups of friends, clubs, or smaller travel groups planning their own trip. For larger groups, other locations, or special requests, a suitable solution can be arranged separately.
Riina Rauts, Product and Sales Manager for the Baltic region at Estravel, described the experience like this:
“The feedback from the group was very positive. They liked the simplicity of the workshop, the naturalness of the ingredients used, and the friendliness of the instructor.”

A workshop that is practical, easy to understand, and gives participants something to take home is perfect for a tour group. For example, in a cosmetics workshop, you can make a body scrub and whipped body cream. Craft and creative workshops where you create a small item or product to keep as a souvenir from your trip are also a great fit. VIEW WORKSHOPS HERE
