Tune in to your neighborhood. Here are our local favorites and some good-to-know stuff to keep in mind while visiting Stockholm. Let’s get clued-up!
Pick a fair taxi: Taxi Stockholm 15 00 00, Taxi 020, Taxi Kurir, TopCab, and SverigeTaxi are all OK. Or just take an Uber.
Bring your credit card (and remember, AmEx is not accepted everywhere).
Allemansrätten (the Right to Public Access) means you can explore any land (with the exception of private gardens and cultivated land), as long as you don’t disturb and leave no trace.
Plan and pay for your trip on the SL Journey Planner app.
Only one store sells booze in Sweden, and that’s Systembolaget.
10-15% in restaurants. Round up for the taxi fare.
In an emergency, call 112. For health counseling, 1177.
Most bars and restaurants close at 01. Clubs stay open until 02, 03 or sometimes even 05. Bring your ID and be there on time to avoid the long queues.
