Parking in Estonia

All parking lots in small Estonian towns are absolutely free. Concerning big cities, for example, in Tallinn, it will be essential to pay for parking a car. However, not in all cases will you have to pay for the parking place in big cities as well. It is quite simple to understand whether the car park is paid or free. If there is a parking machine, it means you need to buy a parking voucher.

Parking machines accept only local currency in cash. There is a very important nuance. You pay for every 15 minutes of parking time in Estonia. You are advised to use guarded paid parking lots for the longer storage of your car. One parking day at such parking places costs approximately 10 Euro.

  • In case the blood alcohol level is more than 0.05 permille, the sum of fine will be up to 1200 Euro. The disqualification term in such a case will be up to 1 year.

Considering that you are in a foreign country, you may have additional problems as well.

The options that you are offered and the options that you find by yourself are always different. Recently I've been looking for options to go on vacation. I've decided to go to the agency (I've had no time at all). But when they've offered to reserve a car that would cost as a third part of that car for a week, I've been shocked. I've gone to the popular site and not only found, but also rented the required car at the ridiculous price.

We had a perfect travel around Verona and its suburbs. Everything was very romantic. We went there right after the wedding and rented a car to be free to move. We found a car via booking Car and immediately paid for it without any problems. Upon the arrival we got the car with a full tank. By the way, it was not necessary to return the car to the place where we took it.

I don't like to spend the vacation at the pool. Motion is very important for me. Recently I've driven around almost the whole Italy. I rented a car via this resource. I've been pleased with the opportunity to find a car with hybrid system. The rental cost is quite affordable. The trip has been great. I've visited the places that I wanted to visit for a long time. I haven't been depend on anyone. I've liked everything. There is payment on the car aggregator without redirections and additional charges.

I spent the weekend in Italy and didn't miss the opportunity to drive a rented sports car. Of course, at home of the most supercars there is no other way. I rented the car via this resource. I can't say that it is cheap, but not enormously expensive. For me, it's important that this is the only car search engine that has found the required car. The payment is direct without fees here. I deliberately asked the provider about the price at the destination place. There was no difference in price. I recommend it to everyone.
