By train

If you arrive at Helsinki-Vantaa Airport, but plan to take the train to Tampere, you need to go to the bus stop first. Take a bus to Helsinki city centre or Tikkurila railway station and board a train there. Trains depart hourly (except for night time). The travel time by train is about 2 hours. We recommend you to buy a ticket either to a Pendolino or InterCity train. Further information please visit www.vr.fi or go straight to the online shop to buy your tickets. You have the option to select seat preference: for example a PC seat in an open or working compartment.

By bus

If you do not stay in Helsinki, perhaps easier and faster way than to take the train is to hop in the express bus. It will leave to Tampere straight from Helsinki-Vantaa Airport. Buses depart every 1-2 hours and the travel time is approximately 2 hours 30 minutes. You might need to change the bus at Keimolanportti. Driver will lift your luggage to the other bus, and you just need to remember to walk to that bus nextby. You can ask additional information from the driver.
