For the museums (Design Museum and Ateneum) the fee for entrance and guidance is 6 €, and both are within walking distance from the University. Ioncell, Aalto Bio2, Aalto ARTS, Origin by Ocean and VTT biotechnology are all located in Otaniemi, Espoo. The return ticket for the metro to Espoo is 6 €. Marimekko and Nanso are located a short metro ride east from the city centre. All of the excursions begin at the University and are led by a conference organiser who will take care of paying the required transportation and entrance fees.
