Favorite thing: The Tallinn card goes almost everywhere in Tallinn.

It's a credit card style card thats sold at most hotels airport and the tourist information. The card gives free admission to several of the museums and free public transport.

Along with the card you get an exelent guidebook, "Tallinn In Your Pocket", a map and a newspaper. If you're serious about touristing you'll get this card, even if you're just seeing a few museums.

Favorite thing: I would advise buying this if you intend to visit a lot of places during your stay. We each bought a 72h Tallinn Card at the Lennujaama airport from Estravel Airport office. You can also buy them from Estair Airport, Kaleva Travel Airport, Wris & GoTravel Cassandra at the airport.
Full details of the Tallinn Card are available on www.tourism.tallinn.ee. A great site by the way, which I used a lot to plan my trip.
You receive a 100 page booklet, which details all the savings to be made i.e. free unlimited city transport, free sightseeing tours & free entrance to nightclubs. They cost 450 EEK each and we easily made a saving by purchasing them. Also it was easier to flash the card than shout in English to make them understand (only joking- its not our fault that English schooling is so bad). You can keep the booklet and it acts as a little souvenir for all the places you visited as well.
