Bus 2 links the airport to the centre in about 20 minutes, and tram 4 runs the same route for the same fare.

The old town is cobbled and steep in places. Bring shoes you can walk hills in, not wheeled cases.

Telliskivi Creative City in Kalamaja is where locals actually eat and drink, ten minutes walk from the walls.

Cash is rarely needed. Even market stalls and taxis take cards.

## Local knowledge

Contributed by guides, operators and creators on the ground. Community advice, kept separate from official sources.

Eat in Kalamaja, not Town Hall Square

Ten minutes north of the walls, Telliskivi and Balti Jaam market have the food locals queue for at half the old town price.

Local guide Kadri Tamm

Time the old town around cruise ships

Walk the walls and Toompea before 10am. By midday the same lanes are shoulder to shoulder, and they empty again after 4pm.
