Kuutsemae slopes

Overview:

Tallinn is a charming city with a population of about 400,000. It has an incredibly well preserved, picturesque medieval Old Town packed with lots of restaurants and bars. The city has a very Scandinavian feel to it, with its fairy tale like Old Town and the steel and glass skyscrapers clustered nearby.

Otepää is a small town with approximate population of 2,200 situated 230 km south from Tallinn. It is a popular skiing resort, known as the "winter capital" of Estonia and it is also the centre of annual ski events as Tartu Marathon in February, and the Otepää Games held in March. The town itself, with its historic church, smart hotels and quirky pubs, is the perfect place to relax with a cup of hot chocolate after a day on the slopes.

Package price from £885 per person based on availability and two people sharing a standard twin/double room. Single supplement is £ 300.

You'll see...

Car Rental

You can rent a car, as long as you have a valid EU or international driver's license. Most cars will have manual transmission.

Transportation

Railway mostly serves domestic routes and is used as an easy and quick way to get from the capital to major cities of the country. There are some international routes, like to Moscow and St. Petersburg, but time spent on the way will be quite long.

Buses are one of the most convenient ways to travel between the Baltic States. Eurolines will get you between Riga, Vilnius and Tallinn. One way tickets will cost £ 15 - £ 20 and approximate travel time is 5 hours between the cities. Ticket reservations in advance are recommended.

Taxis are the quickest and most convenient way of travelling round the city. You'll find them located close to the main hotels. Usually it's quite easy to catch a taxi on the street, however, it's much better and safer to order one by phone. Taxi costs in all of the Baltic countries and Poland are approximately the same and a ride in the centre of the city will cost you approx £ 5 - £ 7.  Taxis in Finland and Russia are considerably more expensive.  It is always a good idea to get your hotel to book a taxi for you and ask approximately how much the trip will cost before you get in.

We would not recommend you to take public transportation within the city, as it's usually crowded and it may cause you unnecessary anxiety about where to stop.
