ABOUT US
A bus company with extensive experience
Go Bus has been hitting the road for over 70 years. Our predecessor, Tartu Autobussi- ja Taksopark, was established on 1 January 1954 and renamed AS Tarbus in 1991. In 2005, Tarbus was merged with seven other bus companies and we started operating under the name Go Bus, which is known to all Estonian people today.
The largest operator on public routes
Today, Go Bus has become the largest public bus service provider in Estonia, transporting passengers daily in almost all counties and major cities. Every day, we provide transport to people to get home, visit loved ones, go to work or go on a holiday on long-distance routes between cities and we also offer charter coach services both in Estonia and abroad. We are a valued bus partner for private individuals, companies and government institutions. There are 420 buses in our bus fleet, which are driven by 650 drivers who travel more than 25 million kilometres a year.

SUPPORT & COOPERATION
In general, organising events involves arranging transport for participants, guests, performers and spectators. Sometimes, the bus itself becomes the venue, other times we just need to go and help or do something together. As a partner, Go Bus has supported many cultural and sports events and contributed to worthy causes and initiatives. We are happy that we have helped to put many great ideas into practice and brought plenty of positive emotions. These are just few examples.
