What do you think about the means of transportation in Helsinki ?

Is the network of means of transportation well developed?
What modes of transport are available?

Do you use them?

Hi Armand! The public transport system in Helsinki is the best in the world. There are buses, streetcars, trains, the subway and even ferries.

For less than 500 for a yearly pass you can use it all you like. Yes, the vehicles are clean and safe, heated in the winter and some of the streetcars are even air-conditioned in the summer.
