Welcome to Helsinki region!
Public transport is a great way to get around the capital region.
You can use the same public transport ticket for trams, buses, the Metro, commuter trains, light rail, and the Suomenlinna ferry. We recommend purchasing an ABC day ticket via the HSL app. This ticket not only gets you from the airport to the city center but also allows you to travel within Helsinki.
Contactless payment is a fast and easy way to purchase adult single tickets.

Ferry to Suomenlinna
Suomenlinna is a sea fortress located just off Helsinki and a popular destination, only a short ferry ride from the city centre.
Tips for travel
HSL app
The HSL app allows you to buy tickets, find the best route to your destination and get up-to-date information about service changes.
Single and day tickets
In addition to the HSL app, single and day tickets are also available at ticket machines and sales points. It’s also easy to buy adult single tickets with contactless payment at card readers on public transport vehicles or at stations.
Journey Planner
Wherever you’re travelling in the Helsinki region, the Journey Planner finds the best route for you. It also tells you which ticket you need for your journey.
At a stop or station
Buy your ticket in advance or use contactless payment at a card reader. If you want to board a bus, raise your hand to signal the driver to stop.

You can track your journey on the onboard displays. There are also announcements on all HSL public transport.
