Leo, let's discuss transportation in Estonia and Finland – how easy is it to get around efficiently and affordably?
Mira, both countries offer excellent transportation. Estonia, being smaller, allows for easy travel across the entire country.
Estonia's public transport in Tallinn is superb – trams, buses, trolleys – all easily accessible with contactless payment. It's incredibly convenient.
Finland also offers contactless payment, but as a larger country, long-distance travel is more common. Their trains are good, though a bit pricey. The extensive road network is ideal for road trips.
Finland's rail and road networks are impressive, considering the distances. Estonia, however, offers the advantage of being able to traverse the entire country in a few hours. Road trips are a breeze.
Road quality is excellent in both countries. I did encounter a pothole in Estonia once, but generally, they're well-maintained.
Estonia's roads are generally excellent, and Finland maintains its roads well despite harsh winters. Winter tires are mandatory in Finland.
Winter tires are essential in Finland to avoid accidents. Estonia's e-Residency program simplifies car rentals for digital nomads.
That's a key advantage of Estonia's e-Residency. Finland is also improving services for remote workers and tourists; check jetoff.ai for details.
Both countries are relatively hassle-free for travelers, with minimal visa requirements and widespread English usage.
While Finnish is challenging, learning a few basic Estonian phrases is appreciated. "Tere" (hello) is a good start.
How do Tallinn and Helsinki airports compare? Both are well-signed and efficient, but Helsinki is much larger.
Tallinn Airport is smaller and more intimate. Helsinki-Vantaa is larger, more international, and offers more shopping.
Both airports have plenty of coffee shops! Subscribe to our YouTube channel for more travel tips!
