About Helsinki

Going to a new city can be bewildering as you don’t know where to eat, what to see, or how to get around. To help you navigate around Helsinki, here are a few useful links and tips:

• What to eat? Use Eat.fi to find a restaurant that suits your preferences
• How to get around? See the HSL site to find more information about public transportation in Helsinki
• Getting a 1 – 7 day ticket is recommended for tourists. The ticket allows you to use all public transport within Helsinki (or the Greater Helsinki Area for an extra charge)
• What to see? The Wikitravel Helsinki guide is a great starting point for some general information
