AIRPORT
Lennart Meri Tallinn International Airport is only 4km from the city centre. Depending on traffic, a taxi drive from the airport to a downtown hotel can take as little as 10 minutes and not more than 10 Euros. The easiest would be to just take a taxi from the taxi park just in front of the Airport. You can also use this pre-booking Airport shuttle service (5 Euros per face to anywhere in Tallinn).
To get to the hotel, you can also take the bus nr 2 just in front of the Airport exit and get off on the 5th stop (A. Laikmaa stop). Then there’s 5-10min walk to our host hotels.
TO THE VENUE AND BACK TO HOTEL
Participating riders and accredited press members will have the luxury of regular shuttle transport from the hotels to the venue several times a day (look for times at the hotels and in the info booklet).
