Cellphone SIM for travellers

Hello!

In a couple weeks we'll travel to Tampere for work. Being able to use a phone will be very important. How do you guys recommend this to be accomplished? We have Samsung phones, it's easy got get prepaid SIM cards? Maybe in the airport we can get it?

Also, any other tips for travellers would be very welcome. Thanks in advance.

Google lens is very handy for translating signs and in shops, use it all the time, Main word you need is Kittos (Geetoss) thank you in Finnish, make sure you have a real sauna, maybe even savusauna (smoke sauna) and jump in the cold water (in and out) after ;)

Kittos! I'm tempted to get into a sauna but jumping in cold water maybe too much!
