Tallinn Travel Forum

We are arriving in Tallinn in July and want to spend 2 days in Tallinn and then visit Riga, Vilnius, and Warsaw. Are there regular trains/buses among these major cities? We are a family of 4. No young kids. Any tips/suggestion is greatly appreciated.

Eurolines buses travel between baltic countries. Check their prices and schedules here: http://www.eurolines.ee/en/node/150
It's also possible to take Hansabuss from Tallinn to Riga: http://www.bussireisid.ee/index.html?timm=1243144698
There's no train connection between Tallinn and Riga and I think between Riga and Vilnius either. I'm pretty sure there is a train connection between Vilnius and Warsaw, you probably just have to change trains on border due to different gauges.

We were there 18 months ago and were advised not to travel by train in Baltic States eg from Estonia to St Petersburg.

We saw a number of buses though at the various border gates.Looked OK and our guide did not comment.We travelled Vilnius to Riga to Tallinn.

We actually went by private car which could be worth your looking in to.


Our travel agent booked us with Baltic Explorer and locally our contact was Latvia Tours (371 708 5001 and 371 708 5018)

We did travel by train from Helsinki to Russia ...no problem.

I took the bus between Tallinn and Riga. It was Eurobus. Bought my ticket online. When I checked in for the bus was given a specific seat, ride was ok, we stopped once for about 15 minutes in a town, so that those that smoked including the bus driver who also smoked while driving could have another cigarette. The trip itself was ok.
