Why would I need the Stockholm Card?
Stockholm is a nice and event-packed place any tourist could enjoy. Everything here has unusual beauty which cannot be compared to any other city. Some of cities in Sweden offer special discount cards created mainly for the short-term visitors. The Stockholm Card can make your life in this fantastic city much easier and help you forget about inconvenient moments and time wasting.
What the Stockholm Card Offers.
The Stockholm Card is the most attractive solution for short term tourism and for those who are curious about cultural life of the capital, since it:
- Gives the way to more than eighty museums and allows you to access all types of touristic points. You will not have to pay any entrance fee with the Stockholm City Card and such a choice will save some money. The Stockholm Card is a must-have for all museum fans and just for those who would simply like to learn more about the cultural life of the Swedish capital.
- Allows you to use for free all Stockholm trams, trains, buses and even by boats! Forget about the tickets – you don’t need them!
- Reduces your expenses by granting a discount for city tours on a bus or a doubledecker as well as for boat trips to the palace of Drottningholm and tickets to Cosmonova IMAX theatre.
For How Much Time Will The Card Be Valid?
In order to save your funds there are four price packages for different number of days. Make a choice among 1, 2, 3 or 5 days visit and thus pay only for the time you need without any extra costs.
Where Do I Get the Card from and what is its Price?
You can purchase the Stockholm Card in any information desk around Stockholm. The price is based on the number of days you will be using the Card for – one-day use costs 525 SEK (Swedish Krona), two-day plan costs 675 SEK, three and five days plans have the price of 825 and 1095 SEK respectively.
It is actually possible that from time to time you can encounter some sudden discount – for example, when obtaining the Member’s card from Ikea. Anyway, we do not recommend relying on it because generally the card price does not vary throughout the whole year.
Who could appreciate the Stockholm Card?
Firstly, the Stockholm Card is mainly created for those tourists who came to Stockholm for sightseeing. They will not have to pay those annoying entrance fees and save their money. Purchasing the Card pays itself if your visit is short but eventful.
Using a simple calculator and a computer you can easily and quickly compare the expenditures related to the card to the costs of being in Stockholm without the city card. We are perfectly aware of the result.
But we are not going to exaggerate the functionality and usefulness of the Stockholm Discount Card – we remember that this option is created mainly for the sightseeing fans. Those who have any other things to do in the capital of Sweden including going to clubs, business and long promenades will not need such a Card.
Luckily there are many spots in Stockholm where you can quickly get the card if you suddenly change your mind.
