Public Transportation

Stockholm is often praised for its comfortable, efficient, and safe public transport. SL, as it is known, is responsible for buses, underground trains, commuter trains, trams, and certain ferry lines in Greater Stockholm. The underground system is the easiest way to get around Stockholm. With a single ticket, valid for 75 minutes, travellers can easily explore various destinations. These tickets can be purchased through SL's ticket machines, their app, or directly at the turnstiles using a credit card. Additionally, convenient options like 24-hour, 72-hour, and 30-day tickets are available for those needing extended travel periods. The Stockholm underground is also known as the world's largest art gallery as so many of its stations are adorned with the works of different artists. So, here’s another reason for you to take the subway or ‘tunnelbana’ in Stockholm. Keep in mind that it's not possible to pay cash for tickets on board buses in Stockholm. Also, a parent with a stroller gets to ride for free on any of Stockholm's buses. A trip on the number 69 bus or number 7 tram is a superb way to discover Stockholm. The lines go out to Djurgården and major attractions like Skansen and the Vasa Museum.
