Getting Around StockholmNavigating the compact but confusing city centre is best done on
foot, as the city is very pedestrian-friendly. To see the sights
further away you can utilise the city''s buses, underground
(Tunnelbana or T-bana), ferries and trains run by Storstockholms
Lokaltrafik (SL). Discount cards or strips of transferable tickets
are available. Information on the transport system, as well as a
map and timetable, is available at the SL-Center inside T-Centralen
station at Sergels Torg. Taxis are plentiful and can be hailed in
the street or booked by telephone. Buying a Stockholm Card (
) is perhaps the best way to make the most
of the city as it allows for unlimited travel on public transport,
as well as free entry to 60 museums and free sightseeing trips.
Stockholm Cards can be bought at various tourist centres in the
city. |
