Imatra Helsinki to Imatra

Hi,

Am flying out to see my son in Imatra. I fly into Helsinki airport but have no idea which is the best form of transport to get to Imatra. I was looking for a reliable taxi company, but not sure this is the best or most economical way as I believe it is approx a 3 hour drive?

Any help/advice would be grately appreciated.

Thanks,

Mel.

Hello,
I think a train is a good choice. You can check the website www.vr.fi where you can get all the information about the prices and the timetables.
You could actually take a taxi from the airport to the main railway station; it wouldn't cost you more than (maximum!!) 35 euro. (It will cost me about 40 euro to get to my home, from door to door).
Just take it easy: trains are safe here in Finland. There are good buses, too, but I think trains have more space than a long distance bus (my knees suffer when I travel 3 hours in a bus..)
