Estonia uses the euro (EUR) as its currency. For travelers, card payments are widely accepted and often more convenient than cash, especially in cities and for transportation tickets. However, carrying some cash can be useful in rural areas or small vendors.
In Tallinn, travelers should be cautious of pickpocketing, especially in crowded areas like the Old Town and public transport. Common scams include overcharging by taxi drivers and fake charity collectors. It is advisable to use official taxi services, avoid unlicensed guides, and be wary of street vendors offering deals that seem too good to be true. Keeping an eye on personal belongings and using secure payment methods can help ensure a safe visit.
Pack lightweight, versatile clothing suitable for the destination's climate, and use secure, lockable luggage to protect belongings. Keep essential items like travel documents, medication, and valuables in a carry-on bag for easy access. Use packing organizers or cubes to maximize space and maintain order. Lastly, include a small first aid kit and personal hygiene items for added comfort during travel.
