For such a modern and impressive country, Estonia's road network is still rather basic. There are few dual carriageways and even the main route south to Latvia (E67) only has a single lane in each direction. This road also connects Tallinn with the southern city of Parnu. The E20 cuts east towards the Russian border, which it reaches after the city of Narva, while route 2 heads southeast to the university city of Tartu. There are plans for a new multi-lane highway connecting Tallinn with Russia and Latvia and on to the rest of Europe's motorway networks, but this still seems to be years away. The main bus station (Tallinna Bussiterminal) is located a 10-minute walk from the old town at Lastekodu 46 (tel: 12550, in Estonia only; website: www.bussireisid.ee). Services run to all major Estonian towns and cities as well as outside the country to Latvia, Lithuania, Russia and all of Europe. The main operators are Eurolines (tel: 680 0909; website: www.eurolines.ee) and Ecolines (tel: 614 3600; website: www.ecolines.ee).

Emergency breakdown service: Automobile Club of Estonia (tel: 1888).
