9 piani per Estonia, da 3 a 50 GB. La validità va da 1 giorno a 180 giorni. 9 di questi vanno in 5G, dove la rete locale ce l'ha.
6 piani possono essere ricaricati senza installare una seconda eSIM. I piani si appoggiano a Tele2, Telia.
Numeri contati sul catalogo vero, non messi lì dal marketing: sono gli stessi piani che vedi elencati qui sopra.
In Estonia non arriva nessun pacchetto regionale: qui l'unica opzione è il piano del singolo paese, che comunque di solito costa meno.
Un'eSIM di viaggio per Estonia è una SIM digitale che il telefono si scarica: niente tessera di plastica, niente banco da cercare in aeroporto. Compri online, tocchi il link che ti arriva per email (nella stessa email c'è anche il QR) e sul telefono compare una seconda linea, accanto alla tua SIM di sempre. Resta ferma finché non arrivi in Estonia, poi si aggancia da sola a Tele2, Telia su 5G dove c'è e LTE in tutto il resto. Il tuo numero continua a funzionare per chiamate e SMS: l'eSIM porta solo i giga.
Mappe, messaggi e app per i taxi consumano poco: circa 300–500 MB al giorno. Se ci aggiungi foto, social e qualche video sei vicino a 1 GB al giorno. Per una settimana un piano da 5 GB sta comodo; per due settimane, o se condividi l'hotspot e guardi video, meglio 10 GB o più, oppure un piano ricaricabile che puoi rimpolpare in viaggio. I piani per Estonia partono da 4,80 € in 7 tagli, e su ognuno trovi il prezzo al GB: il confronto lo fai in due secondi.
No. Un'eSIM di viaggio per Estonia è un piano dati locale, non roaming internazionale: paghi in anticipo il prezzo che vedi, senza nessun conteggio al megabyte da parte del tuo operatore. Imposta l'eSIM come linea dati e spegni il roaming dati sulla SIM di casa: al ritorno non trovi sorprese in bolletta. E fino a quando non la installi ti rimborsiamo tutto, quindi comprarla in anticipo non è un rischio.
Black bread
Leib — a dense, slightly sweet rye sourdough that appears at every meal and is genuinely central to the cuisine rather than a side.
Everywhere; bakeries and supermarkets both.
Verivorst
Blood sausage with barley, traditionally a Christmas dish, served with lingonberry jam and sauerkraut.
Traditional restaurants in Tallinn old town, especially in December.
Kama
A flour of roasted barley, rye, oat and pea, mixed with buttermilk or yoghurt into a thick drink or dessert. Distinctly Estonian and unlike anything else.
Supermarkets for the powder; cafes serve it as a dessert.
Sprats
Kilu — small smoked Baltic fish, traditionally served on black bread with egg. A national open-sandwich staple.
Markets and traditional restaurants.
Mulgipuder
Mashed potato and barley porridge with fried pork and onion, from the Mulgi region in the south.
Rural restaurants and traditional places in Tartu.
Kohuke
A curd snack bar, sweetened quark coated in chocolate, sold in every supermarket in dozens of flavours. Utterly ordinary locally and consistently surprising to visitors.
Any supermarket cold section.
Elk and game
Estonia has extensive forest and game is genuinely part of the diet — elk, wild boar and deer appear on restaurant menus rather than only in tourist places.
Restaurants in Tallinn and rural inns.
Vana Tallinn
A dark rum-based liqueur with citrus and vanilla, produced since the sixties and the standard thing to bring home.
Bars, and every duty-free shelf in the country.
New Nordic cooking
Tallinn has an unusually strong fine-dining scene for a city its size, built on foraged and local ingredients.
Tallinn; several restaurants have serious international recognition.
Kringel
A sweet braided bread with cinnamon or cardamom, shared across the Baltic and Nordic region.
Bakeries and market cafes.
Tallinn Old TownTallinn
One of the best-preserved medieval town centres in Europe, walled, walkable and UNESCO-listed. Compact enough to cover on foot in a day.
a day
Toompea and the viewing platformsTallinn
The upper town on its limestone hill, with Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, the parliament, and the Patkuli and Kohtuotsa terraces looking over the red roofs.
2 hours
Lahemaa National Parknorth coast
Forest, bog boardwalks, coastal boulders and restored manor houses, about an hour east of Tallinn. The most accessible taste of Estonian wilderness.
a day
TartuTartu
The university town and intellectual centre, with a very different feel from Tallinn — younger, quieter and less visited.
a day
SaaremaaSaaremaa
The largest island, reached by ferry, with Kuressaare's episcopal castle, juniper landscapes and a slower pace. A meteorite crater at Kaali is nearby.
two days · prenota in anticipo
Seaplane HarbourTallinn
A maritime museum in a vast seaplane hangar, with a submarine you can walk through. Consistently rated the country's best museum.
half a day
Soomaa bog walksSoomaa
Raised bogs crossed by boardwalks, and a spring flood season locals call the fifth season when the forest floods and canoes replace paths.
a day · prenota in anticipo
PärnuPärnu
The summer capital, with a long sand beach and a spa tradition. Busy in July and August and very quiet otherwise.
a day
KadriorgTallinn
A Baroque palace and park built by Peter the Great, now housing art museums, a short tram ride from the old town.
half a day
HiiumaaHiiumaa
The second island, quieter still than Saaremaa, with lighthouses including one of the oldest continuously operating in the world.
two days · prenota in anticipo
Tallinn public transport
Trams, buses and trolleybuses on a single system. Free for registered Tallinn residents, which is unusual, and cheap for visitors with a validated smartcard or contactless payment.
very low
Intercity bus
The main way between towns, frequent, cheap and comfortable, with wifi on most services. Book online or at the terminal.
a few euros
Train
Elron runs a modest network from Tallinn to Tartu, Narva and Viljandi. Modern trains and a good option for Tartu.
comparable to the bus
Ferry to the islands
Regular vehicle and passenger ferries to Saaremaa and Hiiumaa. Booking a vehicle place in summer is essential.
moderate with a car, low as a foot passenger
Ferry to Helsinki
Frequent fast crossings to Finland taking about two hours, heavily used by both countries.
moderate
App per i taxi
Bolt
Bolt was founded in Tallinn and is deeply embedded here — it is the default way to get a car, and coverage extends well beyond the capital by Baltic standards.
