Tallinn Prices

« I’ll share a bit about our move from Helsinki to Tallin. I’ve always wanted to sail on a big ship, and the Scandinavian countries offer an excellent opportunity for this. Our journey took just 2.15 hours by sea, followed by around 7 hours on land.

About our ship 🚢. We bought tickets online, and the total cost was around $11, but we managed to catch a promotion and paid only $7. 😱

We arrived early for boarding (about an hour beforehand), which allowed us to grab a prime spot at the bar with panoramic windows.

There are plenty of bars, restaurants, and cafes here, so you can easily sit wherever you want without buying anything. It's worth noting that prices here are quite reasonable. A cup of coffee is priced between $2 to $4, and alcoholic drinks are around $5.

The ship has dining options, but I don't see much sense in buying their food, considering you’re only traveling for just 2 hours. »

« Last week of absence, and I'm ready to wander around my favorite hometown again and share its countless interesting spots with you! 😍

Today, I’m hopping on the City Train, or as we call it - the Tomás Train. 🚂

It’s particularly enjoyable for little ones, so if you’re traveling with kids, a 20-minute ride along the charming local streets will surely bring them endless joy and give you all some quality family time. 😄 And if you want to escape the heat, the chill in the air in Taldykinne is just perfect! ❄️

Unfortunately, Tomás isn't equipped with audio guides, but you can always hire a guide separately and combine entertainment with education. 😉

And get ready, because Tomás takes you by places where you can snap some memorable photos – you won’t want to miss these shots! 🤳

Ticket prices 💰
Adult - €6
Child - €4

How's your Tomás experience? Isn’t it stunning? 😏 Would love to dive into that vibe! 🥰 »

« Tallinn, 2016. ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ There’s something off with the quirky little shops selling hipster crafts in Tallinn. They’re scattered all over the city, but it feels like they all offer the same exact thing, as if their stock came from the same warehouse. This is just not right. And the prices are shocking, of course. For example, this charming sleep mask (available in every single shop in Tallinn, just like all the other items) costs $36. We love a good night's sleep, but not that much, unfortunately. While café prices in Tallinn are still somewhat reasonable (considering portion sizes), leaving those hipster shops feels more like exiting a museum. »

« If you're looking to avoid the 12€ entrance fee to a small maritime museum in Tallinn, here’s a quick tip:
1. Casually walk past the cashiers situated about 50 meters from the entrance to the exhibition.
2. Done! You're fabulous!
As a nice bonus, you’ll get to enjoy a stunning snowy view of the Old Town. ❄️✨ »

« "Thomas the Tank Engine, ticket €6. There are definitely perks to traveling with kids—it's a chance to indulge in things you've always wanted to do but never got around to because of adulthood and other silly distractions." »

« I wouldn’t say I'm a museum lover; while I enjoy learning new things, most museums tend to be a bit dull. However, the Maritime Museum in Tallinn truly captivated me. The part located in the Fat Margaret is also excellent, but the Seaplane Harbor stands out as a model for all museums.

The secret lies in the clever organization of space and the impressive interactivity. It's clear that an art gallery probably doesn't have the same potential as a collection of maritime exhibits, but the Seaplane Harbor far surpasses even modern thematic exhibitions. Every step through the hall immerses visitors in a specific historical context, allowing them to become participants rather than mere observers. You can aim real artillery at a (virtual) enemy, become a pilot in a simulator, navigate a plane along a set route, try on military uniforms, watch a film, piece together a military map, and much more. But the highlight of the museum is undoubtedly the submarine Lembit, where you can wander inside and explore its structure in all its glory.

Overall, I highly recommend it. Sure, the price is a bit hefty (it cost us about $15), but we didn’t regret it for a second. »

« Morning is busy, 5 hours chilling at the hookah bar, then a movie and back to the bar. I haven't seen the old town during the day yet, only late at night))) It's incredible how cheap it is here! Hookah for $8, beer for $3. »

« Happy New Year, 250 ml, $7 »

« You can buy a painting by an Estonian artist right in the café, but the price is quite steep... »

« You know what struck me in Tallinn? It wasn't the architecture and history, or the narrow streets and views... It was the magnets priced at €10. A magnet for €10! I remember when I could get 6 magnets for $1 back in the day. After seeing those prices, I just can't mentally justify buying a magnet for €10. 😅 »

« I visited one of the museums)) It's not a classic, of course, but the others seemed uninteresting or too expensive. Here, for just €2, you walk through the building of a former prison and look at photos of people, the elderly, and children who are long gone! 😊 »

« I settled into a hostel, paying €10 a night, and went out to explore the rainy streets of Tallinn. I couldn’t really check out the room since a couple of girls were sleeping. I thought I’d find out everything in the evening. The lovely little streets of Tallinn— I just adore wandering around in such places without a map. »

« The most surprising thing is that I’m even scared to approach the balcony railings on the 5th floor, yet here I am at 170 meters and it feels like nothing! Maybe I subconsciously trust that for €20, people don’t fall, or maybe I think the safety system can definitely handle my weight, or perhaps it’s just having a strong shoulder next to me. In any case, it’s not scary at all. The view is amazing! 🍃🍂 »

« In the port of Tallinn, you can take a hot air balloon ride to a height of about 120 m. It costs 27 USD. 🎈 »

« My favorite spot in Tallinn is St. Olaf's Church. There's an observation deck at a height of 72 meters, and the spire reaches up to 55.5 meters. It's a shame they don't let you go all the way to the top. I happily walk up the steps, and I love bringing my friends along too. The price for this happiness? Just €2. 😊 »

« Tallinn is still a bit of a mystery to me, but I really enjoy seeing so many cyclists around. The weather here is even better than what I remember! And those huge bike shops with hundreds of bikes, starting from around $50 to $100, are just fantastic! 😍🚴‍♂️✨ »

« An interesting way to spend the night in Helsinki is to take a ferry to Tallinn :) In this wonderful way, for just 26 dollars for two, even with the current exchange rate, we got a comfortable overnight stay with a sea view! Tomorrow at 10:30, we’ll be back in Helsinki again. »

« One of my favorite activities in the city is visiting the local flea market. It's held every weekend. Locals pay around $3-5 to sell all kinds of odds and ends. Prices start from $1. The sales from people clearing out their homes are especially fascinating—just imagine what treasures they have tucked away in their attics! Our finds were absolutely magical! ✨🥳 »

« The Tallinn Card we purchased definitely needs to prove its value, so today we explored all the chapels of Tallinn, enjoyed some organ music, and climbed up to the Kiek in de Kök bastion. After immersing ourselves culturally, we felt fulfilled and ready to move on. Regarding the Tallinn Card ($33), it offers free travel on all city public transportation ($1.70), access to the hop-on-hop-off bus tours ($21), and entry to a plethora of attractions, which typically charge between $3 and $6. We managed to visit six places; we could have done more, but we were a bit tired. Without transportation to and from the hotel, we saved about $13 per person. The card is valid for 24 hours, making it a fantastic opportunity for first-timers in the city so you can keep moving and exploring. Just remember, most museums close by 6 PM. I highly recommend it if you’re eager to soak up everything the city has to offer. »

« Our last stop, the beautiful Old Town, is simply wonderful. The city breathes history. In Tallinn, there are only about 435,000 inhabitants.
Real estate prices start from around 1,100 USD per square meter, and closer to the center it's from 2,200 to 3,300 USD, which is significantly cheaper than in Sweden or Finland. »

« 170 meters above the ground - pure thrill! And saved 12 euros with the Tallinn Card! 🌟 »

« Entry to Kadriorg Palace is €7 per person, or free with a Tallinn card. »

« 175 meters above the ground. €11 per person or free with Tallinn Card. »

« Viking Hat (€140), good thing it's small. »

« A first-class ticket on the Titanic would cost around 27,000 dollars in today’s money. A ticket to the Maritime Museum is 15 dollars. It’s an amazing place, I highly recommend it to everyone! 😊 »

« Saint Brigid's Monastery. Two cemeteries. One for the monastery and one for people. Entrance fee - 2 euros. »

« Gas prices in Tallinn are around $0.55. It seems like we'll have prices like that soon too. »
