Capture Estonia

Capture Estonia is a small independent nature and photography outfit based half an hour from Tallinn, offering day tours and multi-day itineraries that focus on Estonia's birdlife, coastal seal colonies, and bear-watching hides. The company markets Estonia as a hidden European birding destination and pitches a mix of bird-watching, photography, and broader nature trips. Flagship trips include a guided day tour to West Estonia and the Matsalu region — a globally important migration bottleneck on the East Atlantic Flyway — together with bird-photography days, seabird boat safaris, and combined nature-and-culture excursions. The operation is led by founder-guide Marko Poolamets. Birding is one of several core offerings rather than the company's sole focus, but the bird-watching tours are professionally guided and aimed at both casual nature enthusiasts and more committed birders looking for an accessible day out of Tallinn.
