Tallinn Ferry Terminals Guide (Terminal A, D, and Easy Planning)

Tallinn ferries are easy — as long as you don’t assume terminals. Operators use different terminals and schedules can change.

Always check your booking confirmation for the correct terminal and check-in timing.

Tallinn passenger ferries commonly use terminals like A and D (and sometimes others depending on operator and route).

The simplest plan: confirm terminal → arrive early → follow signs → keep buffer time.

If you’re doing Helsinki, terminals matter on both sides. Use the full guide and confirm your terminal pairings from your operator:

Helsinki Day Trip from Tallinn.

If you’re arriving by ship for a short stop, planning is slightly different. Use the dedicated guide:

Tallinn Cruise Port to Old Town.

From central Tallinn, getting to the port is usually straightforward. Choose the option that fits your luggage and timing:

• Walk if you have time and want a simple city stroll
• Taxi/ride-hail if time is tight or weather is rough
• Public transport if it lines up cleanly

If you’re planning a walk-first city trip, use Getting Around Tallinn.

• Arrive with buffer time.
• Don’t schedule a full Old Town loop right before departure.
• If you’re doing a day trip, return earlier than you think you need.
