Taxi from Tallinn airport to the city

Another way to get from Tallinn Airport to the right place is to use a taxi. It will cost more, but it will be faster and more convenient.

The car can be found directly at the terminal in a special parking lot or called to your arrival through a special website. Many travelers arriving in Tallinn for the first time prefer the second option. And it's not just that it's Guaranteed to help avoid cheating on the driver's side– there are such cases in Estonia – but it also solves the language issue. After all, many Estonians, especially the younger generation, practically do not speak Russian.

A taxi will cost more than a bus and tram, but it will be faster and more convenient.

In the case of an order through the website, the fare is calculated online and is known to passengers in advance. It is no longer necessary to pay extra something separately on the spot in excess of the calculated price. Tipping is at the discretion of the passengers.

If the flight is late or rescheduled, the car will also arrive at the airport later: the taxi service independently monitors the arrivals board and makes appropriate adjustments.

Finally, for those traveling with a child, this is the opportunity to order a car with a pre-installed child seat. Finding an equipped car at the terminal will be much more difficult, and without a special car seat, most drivers will refuse to travel.
