Boasting unspoiled wilderness, picturesque villages and one of northern Europe’s most delightful cities, the Baltic state of Estonia is a thoroughly charming corner of Europe.
Although it shares history and geography with neighbouring Latvia and Lithuania, Estonia is more culturally and linguistically aligned with nearby Finland. With its unique culture, pristine landscapes and mostly flat countryside, this gorgeous country is superbly suited to cycling adventures.
Cycle through sleepy fishing villages, explore stunning coastal parks and discover the wild beauty of Hiiumaa Island. See the 'Estonian Switzerland' of Otepää Lakeland, and uncover Estonia’s unique culture and architecture as you wander the historic streets of Tallinn’s World Heritage Listed Old Town.
Take a look at our unique guided and self-guided cycling holidays and join us as we explore the treasures of the Baltic by bike.

Visas not required for citizens of Australia, Canada, USA and New Zealand for up to 90 days in a period of 180 days for all Schengen countries (see www.schengenvisainfo.com/schengen-visa-countries-list/ for a list of Schengen countries). Please ensure your passport is stamped on arrival in the Schengen area. For all other nationalities and for longer stays in countries covered by the Schengen Agreement (Australian New Zealand, Canadian and US passport holders), please contact the relevant embassy. Stays of longer than 90 days in the Schengen area require a long stay visa for the country you are spending most time in. However long stay visas are unlikely to be issued unless there is a valid reason (eg. studying in country). Unfortunately we cannot assist in obtaining visas for long stays due to individual country visa requirements.

Money and valuables should always be stored safely when travelling. Keep your passport with you at all times and do not leave it in your main luggage.
