    The link to the map used in this video is: mediabank.visittallinn.ee/static/files/084/kaart_a3_eng_2022.pdf
    This will help you navigate around the city before you come, but printed maps are widely available around Tallinn. You can pick these up for free, there should be no charge for ‘Visit Tallinn’ Maps.

    • @UltimateBucketList
      @UltimateBucketList  4 місяці тому

      Thank you very much! Budapest certainly does have a lot going for it, as it's bigger and there's more to do (I have a Budapest video also).
      But you'll be very happy here in Tallinn - even though it's probably smaller with less to do, it's a lot more charming and certainly easier to navigate around, and do simple things like eat or go to the beach etc.
      Enjoy Tallinn!

      Yes I try and be as helpful as I can by taking all the guesswork out of how much things cost, how to get around, going to and from the airport etc.
      I think that's probably the most stressful thing about travelling - i.e. not knowing what to expect or where you're going, so my videos try and eliminate all that.

    Heading for a long weekend in September and was looking up things to do - really great video full of interesting and relevant content! Also appreciate that you dived straight into the content and didn't make it all about you like a lot of UA-cam channels do! Was there any restaurants in particular you recommend?

    • @UltimateBucketList
      @UltimateBucketList  3 місяці тому

      Thank you very much for saying so. And yes, travel guides on UA-cam are either people making the video about themselves, or AI generated robo-rubbish that you could read from Wikipedia - so I appreciate your kind comments.
      In terms of restaurants, the one in the video (Olde Hansa) will give you authentic medieval style recipes in medieval surroundings - and that's a pretty authentic experience! Peppersack also comes recommended, but to be honest, most eateries in the old town are excellent.
      Hope that helps?

    Tallinn was the highlight of Scandinavia for us too (although I don't think it is actually counted as part of Scandinavia) - we've pretty much followed in your footsteps and been to Copenhagen, Oslo (and then up to Lapland), Bergen, Stockholm, Tallinn and currently in Helsinki. Tallinn is the only place we want to go back to and spend more time in. We loved the arts district/creative city with DEPOO and Balti Jaama Turg as well.

    There's also a Depeche Mode bar in Riga, St Petersburg, and I swear there was also one in Bratislava but I may be remembering incorrectly. I reckon there's one die hard Depeche Mode fan somewhere on the continent, or maybe it's DM themselves? 😂😂

    • @UltimateBucketList
      @UltimateBucketList  2 місяці тому

      Oh really? I didn't see one in Riga or Bratislava, but I wouldn't be surprised if they exist in these two places. I think it's probably hardcore fans that open bars and dedicate them to Depeche Mode, rather than the band themselves! 😆

      Tallinn uses the Euro, and that's the best one to use.

    Enjoyed your video. We lived in Tallinn for a couple years.
    Actually IMHO the better and more convenient way to get to downtown from the airport would be the no. 4 tram; it passes by the bus station too. All public transport use the same travel card anyway.
    On another point, Estonia is also on the mainland of Europe; it's part of EU and use € too. This is the problem with the rest of the world when only western Europe is considered "Europe proper". UK and Republic of Ireland for example, are not on the mainland of Europe.
