Lời khuyên du lịch trong thành phố
Cách đi lại
Use Google Maps or HSL for public transport
Google Maps or HSL's (Helsinki Public Transport) route planner Reittiopas show public transport connections very well. Just type where you're leaving from and where you're headed, and you will see which connections to take.
Cách đi lại
Public transport tickets
The Helsinki area is divided into zones A, B and C. Usually an AB ticket is sufficient as it covers all of central Helsinki and also many surrounding areas. Usually the best choice for a tourist is a day ticket, which you can purchase for 1-7 days. Read more here: https://www.hsl.fi/en/tickets/day-tickets
Cách đi lại
Purchasing a public transport ticket
You cannot buy tickets on trains, trams or the underground. You can buy a single ticket on the bus from the driver. Single tickets are always cheapest to buy beforehand at a machine, on the HSL mobile app or at an R Kioski.
Đi cùng trẻ nhỏ
Children on public transport
If your child is 0-6 years old and you have a pram/stroller, the child and the adult can travel for free on all public transport.
Đi cùng trẻ nhỏ
