Транспорт

• Общественный транспорт

  SL app

  Stockholm metro, buses, commuter trains, trams and some ferries. You can also tap a contactless card at gates. 24-hour and 72-hour passes are good value for sightseeing.

• Поезда

  SJ

  National trains (Stockholm-Gothenburg, Malmö, night train north). Advance tickets in the SJ app are much cheaper.

• Поезда

  Arlanda Express / commuter train

  Arlanda Express is the fast airport train; the SL commuter train (pendeltåg) from Arlanda C is slower but much cheaper (an airport fee applies).

• Такси

  Licensed taxis (Taxi Stockholm, Taxi Kurir, Sverigetaxi)

  Taxi prices are not regulated: each company sets its own. Check the yellow price label on the rear side window before getting in and compare the 'jämförpris' (reference price for a 10 km, 15 minute ride). Use big companies or the official airport fixed fares.

• Приложение для вызова такси

  Uber / Bolt

  Both operate in Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmö with upfront prices. Good alternative to street taxis.

• Электросамокаты

  Voi / Lime / Bolt scooters

  Dockless e-scooters in larger cities. Riding on pavements is banned and parking rules are strict.

• Прокат велосипедов

  Stockholm city bikes

  Seasonal city bike share in Stockholm (spring to autumn) via app; other cities have their own systems (varies).

Деньги и наличные

Валюта: SEK · Swedish krona

One of the most cashless countries in the world. Many shops, cafes, buses and even some banks do not accept cash at all. Bring a contactless card or phone pay. Locals use Swish, which needs a Swedish bank account. If you need cash, use Forex or similar exchange offices rather than airport booths. Euros are not accepted.
