by rail
Rail connections with other countries are limited, there is however a daily overnight connection with Moscow. Check out www.evrekspress.ee (not in English) or www.seat61.com (in English) for more details.

Nordic Jet Line
Edit ThisNordic Jet Line operates 'high speed' catamarans on the Helsinki - Tallinn route. There are seven sailings a day (less on sundays) and travel time is 1h40. There are no ferries from January to April, due to the ice conditions at sea. Booking online is the best way to get hold of a cheap ticket.
