Not a private excursion, but what we did was follow a Rick Steves' walking tour. IIRC, it was in his Scandavia book.

No tour is actually needed as  historic Tallinn is quite small and easily walked from the dock. And any tour you would book with a guide is likely to be a walking tour.

 

There will be "self guided walking tours of Tallinn" found on the internet.(note spelling)

 

Past threads, some of which you could browse.

If you have limited mobility/limited energy, I'd recommend taking a cab to the top of Toompea Hill and then walking down by yourself.  The joy in Tallinn is walking around.  There are pedicabs you can take if you'd prefer a bit of a ride, or if you have kids there's a train that goes through the old city (its a bit bumpy over the cobblestones).  We had a. 3 year old with us, so we only did the pedicabs and train, but you might also want to consider the free walking tour that leaves from the Official Tourism Office at noon.  It's a town you can explore on your own, but if you'd prefer a tour, you can consider the free tour.  It's beautiful and charming, and I hope you have a great trip!
