Stockholm Port Shuttles

Sprawled throughout Stockholm’s southern shores of its vibrantly historic Katarina-Sofia neighborhood as well as its northern residential area of Ladugårdsgärdet, the city’s cruise terminals offer a vivid combination of quiet areas that make arriving to the Swedish capital a calm experience. Boats arriving to a few different stops along the southern neighborhood’s coastline road of Stadsgårdsleden will find public transfers through a couple of bus lines as well as the Masthamnen Ferry Terminal. Running parallel to the neighborhood’s bustling central street of Gotgatan rests an extensive subway line as well. Book a private vehicle for the chance to see things from a more liberating perspective, whether that means going on a journey across dozens of old inter-city bridges with a small sedan or taking a long group trip with a chartered bus bound for distant castles. Meet-and-greet services offer a much brighter alternative to the day, not only through thoughtful interventions courtesy of a local personal driver but elegant limousine arrivals to stately wharf-side restaurants.

Depending on what terminal the ship drops off at, guests will find themselves immersed in either the distant south-side or north-side attractions of Stockholm. In the southern neighborhood of Katarina-Sofia rest a myriad of landmarks such as the towering steeple lookouts and spacious summer lawns of the historic Vitabergs Park, while the photography exhibits held in the spacious warehouse-like customs house offer escapes from the outdoors with world-renowned images in ‘Fotografiska’. Those whose cruise ships are arriving to the northern end of the city can enjoy the instantly quiet surroundings of the Ladugårdsgärdet community, a nice blend of residential and tourist attractions that include observation deck views at the historic Kaknästornet TV Tower, and just-as-daring adventures of knowledge at the fascinating Museum of Ethnography. Near both of these north-end landmarks are the renown eats of Djurgårdsbrunn, a historic cottage offering a down-home atmosphere with traditional Swedish cuisine, a popular south-side option including the colorful Brunch menu of Greasy Spoon and simple classics at Meatballs fo the People.
