Frequently Asked Questions — Getting Around Stockholm

Why is Stockholm's Metro called the world's longest art gallery?

Since the 1950s, most of Stockholm's 100 Metro stations have been decorated by artists with murals, sculptures, mosaics, and cave ceilings unique to each station. Standouts include Kungsträdgården (red rocky ceiling), Solna Centrum (orange forest panorama), and Stadion (rainbow arches). Entry is free with any valid travel card.

Is there a train from Arlanda Airport to Stockholm Central Station?

Yes — the Arlanda Express connects Arlanda to Stockholm Central in 18 minutes, running every 15 minutes. Standard SL travel cards do not cover the Arlanda Express; a separate ticket is required. The SL Pendeltåg commuter train is cheaper and takes about 40 minutes.

Can I use a single SL Access card on Metro, buses, trams, and ferries?

Yes — the SL Access card covers all SL services: Tunnelbana Metro, buses, trams, and SL ferries across the Stockholm county network. Load it with a 24-hour or 72-hour travel pass for unlimited travel.
