Insider tip

Arlanda Express is fast but expensive. Pendeltåg is substantially cheaper and only 18 minutes longer — a good trade-off unless time is critical.

Skip the taxi queue. Book a private transfer from ARN to Stockholm in advance and have a driver waiting when you land.

Allow extra time for ground transport during peak hours. Stockholm city traffic can significantly extend journey times.
