Turku has excellent rail links both to Helsinki and to other major cities in Finland. For timetables and tickets, see the national rail operator’s website.
If you prefer to travel by bus, you can find timetables and tickets through Matkahuolto or Onnibus.

Travelling from Helsinki-Vantaa Airport is convenient both by train and bus.

If you are travelling from the Stockholm-area, taking a ferry is a good option. The ferry terminal in Turku is not far from the city centre, and shuttle buses travel frequently between the terminal and the city centre.

Turku also has a small international airport with connections to several Nordic and European destinations. Just like the ferry terminal, it can be conveniently reached by bus from the city centre.

If you need a taxi while in Turku, there are many companies that operate services in the city. For example Taxidata or Menevä are good options.
