Location information for Tampere

Introduction

Already in the 11th century Tampere was an important trading post, but the city continued to grow, especially with the arrival of the textile industry in the late 18th century. The city's surroundings are beautiful: lakes and forests that invite you to undertake all kinds of activities, such as long hikes, swimming, fishing or sailing. The city itself has a beautiful cathedral, but one of the biggest attractions is the Särkänniemi amusement park, which has a dolphinarium. Furthermore, there are many museums about Tampere's history as a workers' town; there even is a Lenin Museum.

Population

The entire agglomeration of Tampere is the second largest urban area in Finland (after Helsinki). The town itself has a population of about 210,000.

Location

Tampere is located in the southwest of Finland, along a water connection between two lakes: the Näsijärvi Lake north of the city and the Pyhäjärvi Lake south of the city. Thanks to the height difference between these two lakes (18 meters), Tampere has cheap energy. This was the main reason for the metal and textile industry to settle in Tampere.
The city is located 170 km northwest of Helsinki.

Economy

The metal and textile industries have largely disappeared from Tampere. In its place came the electrical and information communications technology. Furthermore, there is paper industry. Also, Tampere is an important educational center, for example it has general and technical universities.

Airports

The name of the airport is Tampere-Pirkkala Airport and it is located 17 km southwest of the city. The airport is easily accessible by rental car: from Tampere take the 3495 and just south of the city turn onto highway E-12. The exit to the airport (road 308) is clearly indicated.

Public Transport

Tampere has excellent public bus transport. Most of the buses run through the main Hämeenkatu Street and have stops at or near the Keskustori Square. The center of Tampere is not very big: you can easily explore it on foot.

Traffic and Parking

The street pattern of Tampere is very clear, you will not find it difficult to find your way. You should always keep in mind that there are many one-way streets in the center. Sometimes, it can be difficult to park your car in the street, but fortunately there are many parking facilities where you can park your rental car.
If you are going to explore the area around Tampere by rental car, please look for the signs that warn about crossing wildlife (elk), especially during sunrise and sunset.

Hotels

Tampere has a wide range of accommodations in all categories. Generally you will not have any trouble finding a room, but in summer it is recommended to book your hotel room well in advance. The nearest campsite is located in Härmälä directly on the lake and about 3km from the city center.

What most people want to know

The following questions and answers are a selection of the most popular questions. If you do not find the answer to your question, have a look at the Frequently Asked Questions page or contact us.

Is EasyTerra Car Hire the cheapest?

Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.

 What do I need to do when picking up a car?

To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.

 Are there any additional costs?

In general, our rates are all-inclusive. Should there be any additional costs, our booking department will get in touch with you before issuing the invoice. Should you object, you can always cancel your reservation with no obligations attached (at least 48 hours in advance).

What kind of insurance is applicable to my car rental?

In general, Liability Insurance, Fire Insurance, All-Risks Insurance and Theft Insurance are included in the cost of your rental car.

 What is a worry-free label?

Only rental companies with a high level of customer satisfaction are eligible to be included in our Worry-Free selection. This rate includes excess cover and unlimited kilometres. Your vehicle will be provided and must be returned with a full tank of fuel. With a vehicle from our Worry-Free selection, you can travel with peace of mind and no hidden costs.

 How can I change or cancel my reservation?

You can cancel your reservation through "My Account". We recommend contacting us by phone if your changes to your booking or cancellation takes place at short notice (48 hours or less).
