transport at notafe's international summer school:
how to arrive:
in case you don’t use your own car, the best ways to arrive to estonia
are by bus (russia, germany, ukraine), by ferry (sweden, finland)
or by plane (from… anywhere else).
by bus?
there several bus-connections from different destinations in europe. just remember that the destinations you have to keep in mind are either tallinn, tartu or pärnu. all these
three stations have straight and quite frequent bus-connection with
viljandi. it takes about two and a half hours to drive from tallinn by
bus to viljandi, the length of time from tartu to viljandi and pärnu
is about an hour.
lux express
ecolines
by ferry?
ferry (jet) is the easiest and probably the cheapest way to travel from scandinavia (finland, sweden) to estonia. there are many companies offering you a trip to tallinn by ferry or by jet, here are some useful links:
eckeroline
lindaline
tallink
viking line
by plane?
the only international airport in estonia is tallinn airport in our capital. the good news for everybody who are not afraid of "super" conditions during the flight is that the low-budget airline-company easyjet have started to make flights from london (stansted) to tallinn airport. you can also use the connections provided by air baltic. since the distance between tallinn and viljandi is about the same as between riga and viljandi, you could also arrive to riga international airport - the capital of latvia. and then take a bus from riga to estonia.
festival's bus
unfortunately there isn't planned such thing as festival's bus this year. however, if it will happen that there are many guests arriving to tallinn airport the same time we could help you with transport. naturally it requires a previous agreement.
local transport
viljandi is quite a little town where in the centre you can walk from one
side of the town to the other within 2o minutes, sometimes even less. all
the spaces of the conference are concentrated to very close to each other.
it's the same with most of the potential accommodation places.
