Chauffeur service across Estonia: what to know

Tallinn Airport (TLL), also named Lennart Meri Tallinn Airport, is one of the closest capital airports to its city in Europe. It sits about 4 km from the Old Town, so the drive into Tallinn usually takes 10-20 minutes. Your chauffeur waits at the designated pick-up area by the terminal. Being met inside the Tallinn arrivals hall is an add-on; like every add-on, it is offered in selected locations only. Many visitors also arrive by sea: ferries from Helsinki dock at the Old City Harbour terminals, and cruise ships berth at the same harbour, a short walk from the Old Town walls.

Estonia is in the Schengen Area and the EU. Non-EU travellers are now registered at the external border under the Entry/Exit System. The Estonian Ministry of Foreign Affairs lists visa rules by nationality.

Main routes by car in Estonia

Distances are modest, roads are generally quiet, and a chauffeur can reach most of the country within three hours of Tallinn.

The Riga run stays inside Schengen, so there are no routine border checks. For a day trip that combines Tallinn and Helsinki, the ferry crossing takes about two hours each way, and chauffeurs can be booked on both sides.

Driving in Estonia: winter, daylight and the calendar

Estonia drives on the right, and dipped headlights are required at all times. Winter tyres are compulsory from December to March, and studded tyres are allowed over a longer winter window. Snow and short daylight hours are normal from November to February. Midsummer brings almost 19 hours of daylight and heavy holiday traffic to the islands and the coast. Tallinn has no congestion charge, but the Old Town is largely closed to general traffic, so pickups are arranged at its edges. Any tip for the chauffeur and any Old Town or harbour parking are billed at what they actually cost.

Plan around these dates:

• February 24: Independence Day.
• June 23-24: Midsummer (Jaanipaev), when much of the country is on holiday.
• November: the Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival.
• Late November to early January: the Christmas market in Town Hall Square.

Which vehicle suits which trip in Estonia

For technology visitors heading to Ulemiste City, next to the airport, a Standard Sedan or Luxury Executive Sedan is enough. Executives on a full day of meetings often book a Luxury Executive Sedan by the hour, minimum 3 hours. Winter luggage and families fit better in a Standard Black SUV. Cruise and conference groups use a Sprinter Van, and small incentive groups often choose the Sprinter Luxury Jet Van. See the fleet for capacities.

Business and leisure hubs in Estonia

Tallinn's technology sector is concentrated in Ulemiste City and the Rotermann Quarter, and corporate car service runs between those offices, the port and the airport. Cruise passengers fill the Old Town from May to September, which is when cruise line and port transport peaks. Tartu is the university city, and Parnu is the summer resort. Visit Estonia lists events, and the rates page explains what each fare includes.

Booking tips for Estonia

Helsinki ferries use Terminals A and D at the Old City Harbour, and cruise ships tie up at the harbour's cruise quay, so name the terminal for a port pickup. Ulemiste City is right next to the airport, which makes office transfers there very short. In winter, allow extra time on the roads to Tartu and Parnu after snowfall. Executives in town for several days often keep a chauffeur by the hour for meeting circuits. Baltic trips, including Riga, can sit under one corporate account with monthly invoicing. The Port of Tallinn publishes ferry and cruise schedules.
