Journey planning

Bus to Helsinki and alternatives for groups

If you are looking for a bus to Helsinki, start by choosing the travel format: a seat on a scheduled service or private transport for the whole group.

Services to Finland are suspended until the border reopens

Compare terms as well as prices

  • The bus arrival point may differ from your required address.
  • Check the specific carrier's luggage rules.
  • For several passengers, a minivan request should be priced for the entire route.

Where the bus journey ends

A ticket to Helsinki does not always mean transport to a hotel, ferry or flight. When comparing a shared coach with a minivan for your own group, clarify the final stop, any local connection and luggage rules. This is especially important for nighttime arrivals and travelling with children.

A group can consider an address-to-address transfer, while an individual passenger can consider a seat on a confirmed service. This compares formats; no current FiniTrans bus ticket is sold here. Availability and timetables are checked after the destination service resumes.

Final destination and return journey

A hotel, private address, port and Helsinki Airport are different arrival points. Ferry connections require the terminal name and departure details; airport journeys require the flight and date. Add the return address if you leave from somewhere else.
