International transport technology company FlixBus will open three new direct bus routes to different cities in Finland this summer. In addition to the existing route to Vaasa, from Pärnu and Tallinn it will soon be possible to travel inexpensively to Tampere, Joensuu and Rovaniemi. The first new routes will open on July 28.
“We expanded our services to Finland last summer, opening a route that passes through the largest cities in the Baltics and extends along the coast to Vaasa. We see that routes connecting the Baltic countries with Finland are in demand, as interest in these destinations is growing and the number of passengers is constantly increasing,” confirmed FlixBus Commercial Director Kamila Zalewska .
To expand travel options and provide good connections to various cities in Finland, FlixBus is opening new direct routes to Tampere, Joensuu and Rovaniemi. Buses will depart on different routes once a day, and prices from Tallinn start from 29.99 euros.
The FlixBus ticket includes the Tallink ferry service between Estonia and Finland. “During the two-hour ferry journey, passengers can stretch their legs, enjoy scenic views from the deck or have a snack,” Zalewska said, and emphasized that they can take a bicycle on the bus. She added that a ticket to Finland can be booked three hours before the bus departure, which allows you to plan your travels flexibly.

1205: Vilnius – Pärnu – Tallinn – Helsinki – Tampere (from July 28)
1206: Hamburg – Pärnu – Tallinn – Helsinki – Joensuu (from August 15)
