Tallinn is not (all?) free. The tram is at least €1.50 for 90 mins transfer. Helsinki is €3.10

I live in Helsinki and spent a lot of time last year in Tallinn - the ‘transit is free in Europe’ thing is very much an exception rather than a rule.

Free public travel is only for Tallinn residents (main address registered inside Tallinn city borders).

I think there's also free public travel for tourists with cars if they park their car (in certain places or under certain circumstances).
