Ferries<br />
The vast majority of visitors travelling onward from Tallinn<br />
go by ship, and it's no wonder - the city has excellent, affordable<br />
ferry connections to Helsinki, Stockholm and Saint<br />
Petersburg. On the Tallinn-Helsinki route, you have the choice<br />
between large car ferries, which make the crossing in about<br />
two hours, and fast ferries (hydrofoils and catamarans), which<br />
usually take only 1.5 hours, but are seasonal and don't run in<br />
all weather conditions. Ferries leave from various terminals<br />
of the city's two passenger harbours, clustered just outside<br />
Old Town (see our map).<br />

Trains<br />
Train travel in Estonia hasn't gained the popularity it has<br />
elsewhere in Europe. The only real international connections<br />
are to points east ( Moscow and beyond), and although plans<br />
are under way, forget about taking the train to Riga or Vilnius.<br />
It is, however, possible to get to Tartu and other Estonian<br />
cities by rail. Three separate companies cover Estonia's<br />
train system: GoRail handles international, Edelaraudtee's<br />
trains are inter-city, and Elektriraudtee operates the local<br />
electric trains.<br />
Edelaraudtee tel. (+372) 1447 (24hrs), info@edel.ee,<br />
www.edel.ee. They operate trains to Tartu, Valga, Pärnu,<br />
Viljandi, Rakvere and Narva. Tickets can be purchased online<br />
or on the train. Cash or credit cards accepted. Q Edelaraudtee<br />
info open at Balti Jaam train station 08:00 - 13:30;<br />
14:30 - 19:00.<br />
Elektriraudtee tel. (+372) 1447 (24hrs), info@elektriraudtee.ee,<br />
www.elektriraudtee.ee. They operate the<br />
commuter, electric train routes to such places as, Paldiski,<br />
Aegviidu and Riisipere. Prices vary from €1 - 2.30, daily tickets<br />
also available from €3 - 6. Tickets can be purchased online<br />
or on the train. Payment must be made in cash on the train<br />
itself. Q N<br />
GoRail B-1, Toompuiestee 37, tel. (+372) 631 00 44,<br />
reisid@gorail.ee, www.gorail.ee. Gorail operates the<br />
trains to Moscow and St Petersburg. See website for full price<br />
list, schedules and visa requirements if applicable. QOpen<br />
08:00 - 18:00. Gorail info open at Balti Jaam train station<br />
08:00 - 13:30; 14:30 - 19:00.<br />
Train Station (Balti Jaam) B-1, Toompuiestee 37,<br />
tel. (+372) 631 00 23/(+372) 1447 (24hrs), www.<br />
baltijaam.ee. Located just outside Old Town, Tallinn's newlyrevamped<br />
train station boasts a trendy café, fountain and a<br />
day spa, but still has almost no information posted in English.<br />
Luckily, the system is not too confusing and there are information<br />
booths (open 07:10 - 18:15, Sat - Sun 08:00 - 18:15),<br />
usually staffed by someone multi-lingual. Tickets for all trains,<br />
including the Russia trains, are sold from windows in the<br />
main hall (take a number and wait). For domestic routes, you<br />
don't even have to bother with this process since the same<br />
tickets can always be purchased right on board the trains. A<br />
touch-screen vending machine in the centre of the hall also<br />
sells tickets for domestic routes (excluding the electric lines).<br />
