    I love love love cities with public transportation. I've ridden metros in 50+ cities from Amsterdam…read moreto Zürich, Dallas to Santiago, Beijing to Toronto. Stockholm's Tunnelbana system is just as good as any of them. I bought a seven day pass and that meant I didn't need to be concerned about whether or not a one-stop trip was a good use of my money. I was on and off and on and off. The pass is valid on the trams and the buses too! Good signage and easy to operate though I only got lost once or twice. You need to know which is the last station on your line so you know you're headed in the right direction. Most of the stations have lifts or escalators. Some stations have staff. A few stations have indicators of the next train and how long you're going to need to wait for it. The trains are frequent enough and they are definitely clean. I did not see litter in the system and I did not experience anyone walking the train begging or selling stuff. [Review 18784 overall - 90 in Sweden - 2307 of 2022.]

You can book guided tours, but you can also do a self-guided tour for free! I suggest googling self-guided tours on Google and finding a tour that sounds most interesting to you. You normally start at T-Central and work your way up and down the green, blue, and red lines. There is so much to see, I definitely recommend!! New York city subways could NEVER. These subways are unmatched, fun, and gorgeous! If you are exploring the subways yourself, I would give yourself 2 hours and buy the 75 minute ticket :)

    This was my most common station as it's the closest to my hotel. Like my friend Aaron S., I was…read morealso at the Hilton Stockholm Slussen and this station is the most convenient. Stockholm has a pretty great public transport network and this was a fine one. After getting on the wrong way a couple of times, I finally figured it out. There are two separate sets of stairs and elevators. One goes to the tracks that go northbound and the other goes to the tracks that go into the city. Once you conquer that challenge, you'll be in a good place. This station is one where the lines converge so if you're headed to Gamla Stan or Centralstation, you can take any train heading in that direction. At street level, there is a staffed ticket booth and the customary turnstiles. I had purchased a seven day pass so I merely scan the QR code on the card over the glass and the gates opened. Easy. Down the stairs or use the lift to the platform level. The station is the first underground after the bridge, so it's not very protected from the cold or hot. It is at least underground so you're out of the rain. There was a pretty good presence of security here so I never felt threatened or unsafe. Overall, this was a good station and I had a positive interaction here. [Review 18108 overall - 15 in Sweden - 1630 of 2022.]

With the lift our of order going towards Slussen, you might want to carry on to this station from Gamla Stan and get the reverse line back to ensure step-free access. The lifts are this station are typical of SL - the big heavy lifts where the doors aren't always automated - but as it is a big station the lift depends on the platform and I find the problem to be much worse heading away from Morby Centrum. I also noticed the gap between the train and the platform is much higher here than other nearby stations - this is common on the SL metro which is really frustrating as they claim all metro can be step-free (even though lifts regularly break down without warning which can cause hours of delay especially if it happens on the blue line), but there are huge gaps which you just can't find about online and no staff on the platform to assist - to be fair the staff member who seems to operate this station at the ticket office does seem to be friendly, but it is a very understaffed station. 2* as it is in a good location and does have lifts and access, even if the latter doesn't seem to be doing a great job sadly.

    I was pleased to find that the ferry from Gamla Stan to Djurgarden was included in my little one…read moreday travelcard when I was in Stockholm off the Norwegian Star for the day. I had previously thought I'd have to do this convoluted bus/bus/tram connection to go around the top to get to the bridge to the island. Going across on a ferry is far easier than doing that. The ferry itself reminded me of the larger ones from Venice and of course the ones in New York, but with an interesting feature - you board and depart directly on the front of the vessel - and the ship is entirely symmetrical so it doesn't need to turn around ever. Our one issue was that we were unaware of the extra stop it sometimes makes between Gamla Stan and Djurgarden, and we got off there by mistake. We managed to grab a geocache and took some photos of Gamla Stan while we waited for the next ferry - if you do make that mistake, then just be sure to hit the call button at the ferry port, otherwise you might get skipped when the ferry goes direct. Otherwise, it was enjoyable, quick and comfortable enough for a ferry.

    If you're considering how to get to Djurgården, consider Djurgårdsfärjan. Compared to the bus which…read moreis often overcrowded, the ferry offers significantly more space even if it's crowded and it runs faster totally independent of the traffic jams in the central parts of Stockholm. The main reason for taking Djurgårdsfärjan hoough, is the view you'll get of Stockholm. It's definitely a classic must-do in Stockholm, and no matter if you're going to Skansen, the amusement park Gröna Lund, the Wasa museum or any of the many other attractions on Djurgården, you can get there with Djurgårdsfärjan. Another advantage is that you can use your SL ticket on Djurgårdsfärjan - no matter if it's a montly card that most of us Stockholmers have, a tourist pass or a single zone A ticket you've just used for the subway or bus trip.
