Bike and electric scooter rental in Tallinn

Various bicycle routes connect different areas of the city, from panoramic seaside promenades and quiet forest trails to bike lanes on busy streets. See the available routes on the official City of Tallinn website.

You can rent a bike for different periods and with various additional equipment (see a list of bike rentals). Many operators also organise bicycle tours to different Tallinn neighbourhoods. 

 

You can rent and see the available e-scooters near you through various mobile apps including:

• Bolt
• Tuul

The scooter rental service is restricted to users aged 18 and older. Before finishing your ride, make sure that you have parked the e-scooter within the provider’s service zone or you risk a fine. 

 

E-scooters are not available all year round. Depending on the weather conditions, rental companies usually pause their services from late autumn through winter. 

You can park your bike for free at Bikeep parking stands in the Old Town and city centre. All parking areas have video surveillance. Bicycles can be locked and unlocked with an app (for iOS and Android) or a public transport fare card (Ühiskaart) that has been registered online.
