bigwally Posted July 15, 2009 #51 Share Posted July 15, 2009 I see a couple of problems with Helsinki - I think you'll find that tram drivers don't sell the matkailijalippu tourist ticket anymore. A better bet for you would be catching the number 16 bus from the location circled in the picture below to Senate Square. Bus drivers do continue to sell the tourist pass and Senate Square is just a short walk to the market: Edit: http://www.ytv.fi/ENG/transport/tickets_and_fares/buying/ "On buses, trams and commuter trains you can buy single tickets from the driver or conductor. On buses and commuter trains, the drivers and conductors sell also one-day tourist tickets." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had a little cash register with a printer and he just printed out tickets for us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigwally Posted July 28, 2009 #57 Share Posted July 28, 2009 Glad it worked out for you. I still think the number 16 bus is a better bet for that particular part of the port. But I guess whichever works out timetable-wise for the end user. It's six of one/half-a-dozen of the other as to the distance walked on either end, though the walk from Senate Square to the market has to be (IMHO) nicer than the one to Docksgatan for the tram.
