Business Travel

Business trip on wheels:
work on the road, relax on arrival

5 min read By the Transfero team
Key takeaways
  • Tallinn–Riga takes about 4 hours by road, Tallinn–Vilnius about 7–8 hours — time a team can use for meetings instead of driving.
  • In a V-Class the rear seats can face each other around a table, which works well for discussions on the road.
  • Plan formats that do not need a big screen: agenda reviews, brainstorming, monthly results, preparing for a client meeting.
  • V-Class suits teams up to 6, Sprinter up to 8 or 23, and a touring coach up to 55. Invoices are issued to your company.

Why spend working hours on the road when the road can work for the whole team?

Imagine your company heading from Tallinn to Riga, Vilnius or another European city. Instead of several cars and a tiring drive, the team travels together in a comfortable Mercedes-Benz with a professional driver. On the way you hold a meeting, discuss new projects, look through photos or videos together and review the month. On arrival, the business mood gives way to rest.

Morning — business. Evening — experiences.

The maths of travel time

A return trip from Tallinn to Riga is around eight hours of driving. If five colleagues drive themselves in two cars, at least two of them spend the day behind the wheel, and nobody can work properly. In a private vehicle, the same eight hours become shared working time.

Route from TallinnDistance (approx.)Driving time (approx.)Good for
Pärnu130 km1 h 45 minA one-hour planning session
Tartu185 km2 h 20 minA full team meeting
Riga310 km4–4.5 hMeeting + preparation for the client
Vilnius600 km7–8 hA working day with breaks

Times are typical driving times without long stops and depend on traffic, season and road works.

What a team can do on the road

  • Hold a working meeting or a weekly stand-up.
  • Brainstorm a new project while everyone is in the same place.
  • Review photos or videos from a recent project on laptops or tablets.
  • Sum up the month and agree next steps.
  • Prepare together for the client meeting at your destination.

Practical tips for a meeting on wheels

  • Choose the right format. Discussions work better than presentations: on the road, plan sessions that do not need a large screen or conference equipment.
  • Share the agenda before departure so the meeting starts as soon as you leave the city.
  • Download documents for offline use. Mobile coverage along the Via Baltica is good, but rural stretches can have short gaps.
  • Roaming is not a problem. Thanks to EU "roam like at home" rules, most Estonian mobile plans can use data in Latvia and Lithuania at domestic rates — a handy backup to the Wi-Fi included in every Transfero vehicle.
  • Plan a break. On the way to Riga, Pärnu is a natural stop for coffee and stretching your legs.

Morning business, evening experiences

When the work is done, switch to rest. A restaurant, a guided walk through the Old Town, a concert, a spa or a corporate event — you choose the programme, Transfero takes care of the transport. Near Riga, the seaside resort of Jūrmala is about 25 km from the city centre and a popular spa destination; in Vilnius, the Old Town is a UNESCO World Heritage site and easy to explore on foot.

The team travels together, nobody is busy driving, the travel time is used well, and the trip itself strengthens team spirit.
