(I love it so much <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nomadicmatt.com\/travel-guides\/sweden-travel-tips\/stockholm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">I even spent time living here<\/a>!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the country&#8217;s high prices scare budget travelers, Sweden is a country worth exploring. There are medieval cities, beautiful islands, tons of castles, the Northern Lights, a growing foodie scene, friendly people, incredible art, amazing hiking opportunities, and a super high quality of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When most people visit, they hit the major cities for a couple of days and then head onwards to cheaper destinations. Few people spend extended time here, which I think is a huge mistake. There\u2019s a lot to do here (especially if you love outdoor activities) and the people are really welcoming of tourists. Plus, it&#8217;s also a lot cheaper than you think!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The country isn\u2019t the cheapest to visit but this travel guide to Sweden will help you plan your visit, save money, and ensure you make the most of your time in this Scandinavian gem.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.kb-row-layout-id5546_494f14-77 > .kt-row-column-wrap{align-content:start;}:where(.kb-row-layout-id5546_494f14-77 >

Sweden<\/h3>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.nomadicmatt.com\/stockholmguide.jpg\" alt=\"Stockholm aerial view\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Explore Stockholm<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>From the museums to nightlife, there\u2019s a lot to do in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nomadicmatt.com\/travel-guides\/sweden-travel-tips\/stockholm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Stockholm<\/a>. This small city can keep you busy for days upon days. Enjoy the picturesque harbor, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/stockholm-l50\/stockholm-small-group-walking-tour-old-town-gamla-stan-t502723\/?partner_id=LLKQJ38&amp;utm_medium=online_publisher\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">take a walking tour<\/a>, see the charming Old Town, hang out in the beautiful parks, explore the archipelago, the museums, the fabulous cafes, and tour the royal palace. I think it&#8217;s one of the best cities in all of Europe and I recommend spending at least three days here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Catch the Midsummer Festival<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Swedes celebrate the summer solstice with a giant party. They dance around a maypole, eat special food, drink lots of schnapps, and enjoy nature. It&#8217;s generally a big family affair, so try to find some locals to get invited to a private party. If you can&#8217;t find any locals to party with, every municipality in the country organizes events that are open to the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Visit Gotland<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Gotland is a popular place for Swedes to visit during the summer. The island is known for its rugged limestone cliffs, sandy beaches, medieval history, and unique cultural character. Its main town, Visby, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site famous for its remarkably preserved medieval walls, cobblestone streets, and Gothic churches. Beyond the town, Gotland offers rolling farmland and quiet fishing villages. July is the most popular month so, if you are going then, book accommodation <em>far <\/em>in advance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Hike the Kungsleden (King&#8217;s Trail)<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>This 440-kilometer (273-mile) trail stretches through some of the most remote and pristine landscapes in the country. Beginning in Abisko and winding south toward Hemavan, the trail takes trekkers through dramatic Arctic landscapes of vast tundra, snowcapped peaks, alpine valleys, birch forests, and countless lakes and rivers. It takes around one month to hike the entire trail, though it is broken up into week-long or day-hike sections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Brave the cold in Lapland<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/rovaniemi-l2653\/ice-floating-in-lapland-with-northern-lights-t178730\/?partner_id=LLKQJ38&amp;cmp=TTDSweden\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Lapland<\/a>, in the far north, is where the Sami, Sweden\u2019s indigenous people, continue to make their home and where you can see reindeer (and eat), do some skiing, and experience the Arctic north. Head here for an unexplored part of the country with a lot of cultural significance. I think the area is best explored during the fall or winter when you get to see the Northern Lights. During the summer months, there are lots of hiking opportunities as well as water sports on the many lakes.  <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<div data-gyg-widget=\"auto\" data-gyg-partner-id=\"LLKQJ38\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n\n\n<style>.kb-row-layout-id5546_af0c77-0c > .kt-row-column-wrap{align-content:start;}:where(.kb-row-layout-id5546_af0c77-0c > .kt-row-column-wrap) > .wp-block-kadence-column{justify-content:start;}.kb-row-layout-id5546_af0c77-0c > .kt-row-column-wrap{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);row-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);padding-top:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);padding-bottom:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}.kb-row-layout-id5546_af0c77-0c > .kt-row-layout-overlay{opacity:0.30;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kb-row-layout-id5546_af0c77-0c > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kb-row-layout-id5546_af0c77-0c > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}<\/style><div class=\"kb-row-layout-wrap kb-row-layout-id5546_af0c77-0c alignnone wp-block-kadence-rowlayout\" id=\"seedo\"><div class=\"kt-row-column-wrap kt-has-1-columns kt-row-layout-equal kt-tab-layout-inherit kt-mobile-layout-row kt-row-valign-top\">\n<style>.kadence-column5546_8e519d-cb > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column5546_8e519d-cb > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;}.kadence-column5546_8e519d-cb > .kt-inside-inner-col{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);}.kadence-column5546_8e519d-cb > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}.kadence-column5546_8e519d-cb > .kt-inside-inner-col > .aligncenter{width:100%;}.kadence-column5546_8e519d-cb > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column5546_8e519d-cb{position:relative;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kadence-column5546_8e519d-cb > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;justify-content:center;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kadence-column5546_8e519d-cb > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;justify-content:center;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column5546_8e519d-cb\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-7d671ee0 heading-line\" id=\"section-title\">\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading5546_ecce19-6d, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading5546_ecce19-6d[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading5546_ecce19-6d\"]{padding-right:var(--global-kb-spacing-xs, 1rem);padding-left:var(--global-kb-spacing-xs, 1rem);text-align:center;font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading5546_ecce19-6d mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading5546_ecce19-6d[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading5546_ecce19-6d\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}<\/style>\n<h3 class=\"kt-adv-heading5546_ecce19-6d wp-block-kadence-advancedheading has-theme-palette-9-background-color has-background\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading5546_ecce19-6d\">Other Things to See and Do in Sweden<\/h3>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Partake in <em>fika<\/em><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Like \u201cteatime\u201d in the UK, <em>fika<\/em> is Sweden\u2019s way of slowing down. Coffee, conversation, and a few baked goods (often cinnamon buns) are an important part of the social fabric in Sweden, allowing friends and colleagues to take a break from the day-to-day and just relax. It happens during the late afternoon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Stay in the Ice Hotel<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Located up north in Jukkasj\u00e4rvi, the Ice Hotel is a hotel built during the winter months out of (you guessed it) ice. There\u2019s an ice bar, an ice dining room, and an ice bed (with big fur blankets!). Be prepared to pay the price for a unique stay like this, as nights cost around 7,000 SEK! The hotel is also open for tours, allowing visitors to explore the impressive construction and design. A day pass to the hotel complex costs 315 SEK. (The hotel has &#8220;regular&#8221; rooms as well in an adjacent building, which &#8220;only\u201d cost 2,400\u20134,000 SEK per night.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Tour the Stockholm Archipelago<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Take a boat around the different islands that surround Stockholm (there are thousands!). During the summer, they become big attractions for locals as they boat around and spend nights on the islands (a lot of locals have family cabins here). You can take a day tour or just spend a few nights at one of the many B&amp;Bs here. There&#8217;s not a lot to do on the islands but that&#8217;s the point. Slow down, go for a walk, take a dip in the water. People come here to relax and so should you! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Visit Gothenburg<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nomadicmatt.com\/travel-guides\/sweden-travel-tips\/gothenburg\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Gothenburg<\/a> is Sweden\u2019s second-largest city. It sees a fraction of tourists compared to Stockholm so come here to beat the crowds, walk along the cobblestone pedestrian streets of Haga, window shop along the Avenyn, and visit Liseberg, one of the biggest theme parks in Scandinavia. The city has a much more laid-back vibe than Stockholm and offers plenty of nearby hiking, swimming, and other outdoor activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Explore the Bohusl\u00e4n Coast<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>This beautiful coast is home to over 8,000 islands and almost 300 kilometers (185 miles) of coastline. The region is known for its fishing, swimming, and hiking and is one of the best spots in the country to get fresh seafood (don&#8217;t miss lobster season from late September until the end of November). There is also a UNESCO rock-carving site in Tanumshede with carvings and paintings dating back to the Bronze Age and Iron Age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Go skiing<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Scandinavians love their winter sports. One of the most popular ski resorts in the region is \u00c5re, which lies 80 kilometers (50 miles) from \u00d6stersund (and around 600 kilometers\/375 miles north of Stockholm). The highest peak at the resort is over 1,400 meters (4,590 feet). Daily trains run to the area from Stockholm. Lift tickets are generally around 650 SEK. Other areas that are great for skiing are S\u00e4len, Vemdalen, and Bran\u00e4s (S\u00e4len and Bran\u00e4s are the two southernmost options, though all are still several hours north of Gothenburg and Stockholm).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Kick back in Uppsala<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/stockholm-l50\/ancient-viking-sites-small-group-tour-of-uppsala-sigtuna-t447744\/?partner_id=LLKQJ38&amp;cmp=TTDSweden\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Uppsala<\/a> is a quiet university town about 25 minutes from the Arlanda Airport and an hour away from Stockholm by train. It\u2019s filled with quirky shops, picturesque waterways, a cool castle, lovely parks, and beautiful bike trails. A lot of what\u2019s here is centered around the university \u2014 from the vast library, home to more than 5 million volumes; to the Museum of Evolution, which boasts over 5 million zoological, botanical, and fossil specimens; to the Linnaean Gardens. Owing to its big student population, there\u2019s also a lot of affordable restaurants and bars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8. Celebrate Valborg Day<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Held on April 30th, this annual festival serves to welcome spring. It\u2019s characterized by huge bonfires, even bigger parties, and is a tradition dating back to the Middle Ages. It used to welcome the end of winter and the arrival of warmer days. Students, especially in university cities like Uppsala and Lund, celebrate with picnics, parties, and champagne breakfasts. It\u2019s a lively mix of tradition and revelry that blends folk customs with modern festivity. Municipalities organize events \u2014 including the massive bonfires \u2014 and many locals also host their own parties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">9. Check out Wallander\u2019s Ystad<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Wallander is one of Sweden\u2019s most popular fictional characters. A detective in the city of Ystad, Wallander is the main character in a dozen novels and their corresponding TV episodes \u2014 all set in or around Ystad (there was even a UK adaptation of the series starring Kenneth Branagh). Located in Sk\u00e5ne, the town is quite picturesque and full of history. If you\u2019re a big fan of Wallander, you can arrange a tour at the tourist office, but even if you\u2019re not, the town itself has a lot of character and is worth exploring. It\u2019s only one hour from Malm\u00f6 and makes for a nice day trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">10. Visit Kosterhavet National Park<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Kosterhavet is a marine park situated on and around the Koster Islands, located approximately two hours north of Gothenburg. It\u2019s the country\u2019s first marine park and home to Sweden\u2019s only coral reef as well as over 6,000 marine species (many of which don\u2019t exist anywhere else in the country). The park spans almost 400 square kilometers (248 miles), and the islands are beautiful. Rent some bikes to get around and enjoy the rugged landscape and the wildlife that call it home (there\u2019s a large seal colony here, too). You can access the islands via the local ferry. Return tickets are 148 SEK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">11. Visit the Vasa Museum<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>This is hands-down a must-see museum in Stockholm. It houses the famous Vasa ship, which sank right as it set sail in the harbor in 1628 due to being too heavy to float. The cold sea kept the ship intact (so much so that it even has the original paint). The museum does a wonderful job of putting the ship into the historical context of the 17th century and Sweden\u2019s Golden Age. There are English guided tours too. Admission is 195\u2013230 SEK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">12. Let loose at Liseberg<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Located in Gothenburg, this is the biggest amusement park in Scandinavia. There are rollercoasters, a haunted house, tons of rides for kids, and a giant Ferris wheel with stunning views of the city. Concerts by popular artists are common here too and it gets a huge transformation for Halloween and Christmas! Admission is 95 SEK, while admission and unlimited rides are 365 SEK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">13. See the Northern Lights<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>The Northern Lights, also known as the aurora borealis, light up the skies of Scandinavia each winter, drawing thousands of visitors to witness the spectacle. The best time to see the lights is from late September to late March, from around 9pm to 2am. You&#8217;ll want to travel north to the sparsely populated Lapland for the best chance to see the lights (you can&#8217;t really see them in southern Sweden).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">14. See Stockholm\u2019s stunning subway art<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Stockholm\u2019s subway system also doubles as the world\u2019s longest art gallery. Since 1957, artists have been invited to decorate the subterranean stations with their work, and today over 90 out of 100 stations feature public art. Kungstr\u00e4dg\u00e5rden is one of the most famous stations and features a colorful abstract garden complete with sculptures formerly housed at the palace. If you don&#8217;t want to do it solo, you can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/stockholm-l50\/underground-metro-art-ride-with-a-local-in-stockholm-t478354\/?partner_id=LLKQJ38&amp;cmp=TTDSweden\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">book a guided tour<\/a> to ensure you don&#8217;t miss anything!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">15. Visit Drottningholm Palace<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Located just 30 minutes outside of Stockholm, this 17th-century palace is the most well-preserved palace in all of Sweden. Modeled after the Palace of Versailles, the UNESCO-listed complex includes ornate gardens, a theater, a Chinese Pavilion, and elaborately decorated interiors. It is the official private residence of the Swedish royal family and is only open on weekends. Admission is 160 SEK or 210 SEK, including a guided tour in English.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">16. Experience the G\u00f6ta Canal<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>This 19th-century waterway connects a system of lakes and rivers from the Baltic Sea in the east to Gothenburg in the west. The canal is 190 kilometers (120 miles) long and has 47 bridges and 58 locks. You can enjoy the canal via guided tour, by renting your own boat, or by cycling down the towpaths lining the banks. The canal is open from May to the end of September.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">17. Get outside in the national parks<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Spending time in nature is an integral part of Swedish life and culture. In 1909, Sweden was the first country to establish a national park system. Today, there are 30 national parks to enjoy. One of the most popular parks is Abisko National Park in Lapland, where visitors come to hike, ski, and snowshoe, as well as view the midnight sun and aurora borealis. Additionally, Skuleskogen National Park, set along Sweden\u2019s High Coast, is a sprawling wilderness where ancient forests meet the rugged Baltic shoreline. (I think this is one of the best national parks.) Wild camping is legal in Sweden, making it a great destination to travel to if you have a tent and want to experience the untamed outdoors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">18. Visit Umea and the surrounding area<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Founded in 1622 by Swedish King Gustav II Adolf, Ume\u00e5 is the cultural capital of northern Sweden. It is now a city of 100,000 people known for its huge university (almost a third of the city\u2019s population are students). With so many students here, the city has a young, vibrant feel and there are lots of affordable restaurants and bars. See the V\u00e4sterbottens Museum, Guitars the Museum, and Umedalens Skulpturpark, a vast outdoor art park featuring sculptures by renowned Swedish and international artists. If you want to hike, you can do sections of Is\u00e4lvsleden, a 60-kilometer trail that follows an old glacier path (you can do it in sections); Tavelsj\u00f6leden, which boasts lots of caves and mountaintops; and Holm\u00f6rundan, a 13-kilometer hike on the near island Holm\u00f6n. Str\u00f6mb\u00e4ck Kont nature reserve is just south of Ume\u00e5 and easily accessible by (infrequent) buses if you don\u2019t have a car. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div data-gyg-widget=\"auto\"

Sweden<\/h3>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Sweden is one of the safest countries in the world. It&#8217;s a great destination for solo travelers \u2014 including solo female travelers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Taxis are quite safe and crime against travelers is incredibly rare. But keep your wits up and never travel alone at night if you\u2019ve been drinking, just to be safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As in any larger city, it&#8217;s a good idea to keep an eye out for pickpockets, especially around the train stations and on public transportation. And as always, never leave your drink unattended when out at the bar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While there has been an increase in gang-on-gang crime in recent years, that isn&#8217;t anything you need to worry about as a tourist. Moreover, there is no truth to any claims that certain areas of some cities are &#8220;no-go zones.&#8221; As long as you use common sense while visiting, you likely won&#8217;t experience any issues whatsoever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Scams here are virtually non-existent, but if you\u2019re worried about getting ripped off, you can read about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nomadicmatt.com\/travel-blogs\/avoid-travel-scams\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">common travel scams to avoid here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you do experience an emergency, dial 112 for assistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Always trust your gut instinct. Make copies of your personal documents, including your passport and ID. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most important piece of advice I can offer is to purchase good travel insurance. Travel insurance will protect you against illness, injury, theft, and cancellations. It&#8217;s comprehensive protection in case anything goes wrong. I never go on a trip without it as I&#8217;ve had to use it many times in the past.

There&#8217;s just no two ways about it. But, while it may not be the most budget-friendly destination, there are still plenty of ways to save while you&#8217;re here. It takes some work, and you won\u2019t be able to eat or drink out a lot, but it can be done! Here are some tips to save money in Sweden:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Check for deals<\/strong> &#8211; When you\u2019re shopping for groceries, check the flyer first and pay attention to what\u2019s on sale. It\u2019s not a &#8220;cool&#8221; way to save, but by paying attention to what\u2019s on sale, you can likely save yourself a few kronor (and a few kronor can make a difference here!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Drink beer<\/strong> &#8211; Alcohol isn\u2019t cheap in Sweden as it is heavily taxed. However, beer is quite affordable. If you stick to beer, you can save yourself a lot of money when you go to the bars. To save even more, buy your beer from the Systembolaget (the government-run store that sells alcohol) and save even more (as much as 50%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Book in advance<\/strong> &#8211; My trip to the Stockholm train station taught me that travel around Sweden is expensive when you are booking only a day or two beforehand. Booking trains or buses three to four weeks in advance can get you around 30-50% off. Flixbus, SJ, and VR are the major companies to consider, with VR being the cheapest train company. Flixbus is a budget-friendly option as well if you&#8217;d rather take the bus over the train.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bring a refillable water bottle<\/strong> &#8211; The tap water in Sweden, as in all of Scandinavia, is perfectly drinkable. In fact, tap water in Sweden is often cleaner than bottled water! Bring a refillable water bottle and save your money \u2014 and the environment! To make sure your water is extra safe, bring a <a href=\"https:\/\/lifestraw.xyibsh.net\/B0AY14\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">LifeStraw<\/a>. They have built-in filters and are perfect for traveling!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Purchase a city tourism card<\/strong> &#8211; These tourist passes give you access to a city\u2019s public transportation system and free entrance into 99% of the museums and attractions. If you plan on seeing the majority of attractions and museums, one of these cards will save you money. (Savings will vary depending on how much you use the card.) The Stockholm Pass, for example, includes access to over 70 attractions for just 899 SEK for a 1-day pass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Skip the restaurants<\/strong> &#8211; Eating out in Sweden is very expensive, especially if you are going to a sit-down restaurant. If you want to eat out, stick to the outside food vendors you see on the street. You can find a decent variety and they are only about 85 SEK per meal. You can also get cheap hot dogs and sausages for under 50 SEK. If you\u2019re craving take-out, stick to Thai and Middle Eastern food, as they are usually the cheapest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Go for the buffet<\/strong> &#8211; Lunch is the best time to eat out in Sweden. Buffets and restaurants have set meals for around 125 SEK. It\u2019s the best deal you can find and one that is utilized a lot by locals. Don&#8217;t miss Hermitage in Stockholm for a cozy, home-cooked meal!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Avoid clubs<\/strong> &#8211; Many clubs have a 250 SEK (or more) cover. Don\u2019t waste your money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Get a metro card<\/strong> &#8211; Each region of Sweden has its own public transportation operator, and transportation cards will include buses, trams, subways, and boats. Prices will vary for each region, so be sure to enquire when you arrive as a multi-day pass (or even just a day pass) can save you money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Stick to the cheaper grocery stores<\/strong> &#8211; If you&#8217;re going to be buying your own groceries, Willys and Lidl are the cheaper grocery store chains (Ica is more popular, but more expensive).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Walk everywhere<\/strong> &#8211; The downtown cores of Malm\u00f6, Gothenburg, and Stockholm are very walkable. If you don&#8217;t mind walking up to 20\u201330 minutes, you can comfortably see all the main sights of each city on foot.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<style>.kb-row-layout-id5546_9d3bcb-c0 > .kt-row-column-wrap{align-content:start;}:where(.kb-row-layout-id5546_9d3bcb-c0 > .kt-row-column-wrap) > .wp-block-kadence-column{justify-content:start;}.kb-row-layout-id5546_9d3bcb-c0 > .kt-row-column-wrap{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);row-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);padding-top:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);padding-bottom:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}.kb-row-layout-id5546_9d3bcb-c0 > .kt-row-layout-overlay{opacity:0.30;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kb-row-layout-id5546_9d3bcb-c0 > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kb-row-layout-id5546_9d3bcb-c0 > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}<\/style><div class=\"kb-row-layout-wrap kb-row-layout-id5546_9d3bcb-c0 alignnone wp-block-kadence-rowlayout\" id=\"getaround\"><div class=\"kt-row-column-wrap kt-has-1-columns kt-row-layout-equal kt-tab-layout-inherit kt-mobile-layout-row kt-row-valign-top\">\n<style>.kadence-column5546_20302f-c9 > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column5546_20302f-c9 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;}.kadence-column5546_20302f-c9 > .kt-inside-inner-col{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);}.kadence-column5546_20302f-c9 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}.kadence-column5546_20302f-c9 > .kt-inside-inner-col > .aligncenter{width:100%;}.kadence-column5546_20302f-c9 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column5546_20302f-c9{position:relative;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kadence-column5546_20302f-c9 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;justify-content:center;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kadence-column5546_20302f-c9 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;justify-content:center;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column5546_20302f-c9\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-4f458871 heading-line\" id=\"section-title\">\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading5546_83dd96-2d, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading5546_83dd96-2d[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading5546_83dd96-2d\"]{padding-right:var(--global-kb-spacing-xs, 1rem);padding-left:var(--global-kb-spacing-xs, 1rem);text-align:center;font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading5546_83dd96-2d mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading5546_83dd96-2d[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading5546_83dd96-2d\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}<\/style>\n<h3 class=\"kt-adv-heading5546_83dd96-2d wp-block-kadence-advancedheading has-theme-palette-9-background-color has-background\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading5546_83dd96-2d\">How to Get Around in Sweden<\/h3>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.nomadicmatt.com\/2022\/stockholmguide2.jpg\" alt=\"Colorful historic buildings lining a plaza in Gamla Stan, the old town of Stockholm, Sweden\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Public Transportation<\/strong> &#8211; Public transportation in Sweden is incredible. You can not only use it to explore the cities but also the countryside and less-visited towns and villages as well. Tickets vary in each region and are usually based on how far you travel. A single-fare ticket in Gothenburg costs around 37 SEK, though you can also take a public bus (and then a ferry) from Gothenburg out to many of the nearby islands for around 120 SEK (some of which are 2-3 hours away!) The public transportation in Stockholm costs 43 SEK per ticket or 180 SEK for a 24-hour pass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most cities have an app you can download to manage and pay for your tickets. No one will inspect your ticket when you board but there are roaming ticket checks and, if you get caught without paying, you&#8217;ll be fined hundreds of dollars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Intercity Buses<\/strong> &#8211; Buses booked a month or more in advance can be found for as cheap as 250 SEK. However, those tickets are limited in number, and typically buses cost between 300 and 500 SEK. The 8-hour trip from Stockholm to Malm\u00f6 and the 6.5-hour trip from Stockholm to Gothenburg are both generally around 300\u2013500 SEK. For the cheapest prices, use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.awin1.com\/cread.php?awinmid=16028&amp;awinaffid=509047&amp;ued=https%3A%2F%2Fglobal.flixbus.com%2F\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Flixbus<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are arriving at an airport, Flygbussarna is the main shuttle company, with tickets costing around 99\u2013129 SEK from major airports to the nearest downtown (Stockholm, Gothenburg, Malm\u00f6). Flixbus also manages some airport shuttles though they are much less frequent (they are cheaper, however).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To find bus routes and prices, use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dpbolvw.net\/click-3032045-13720039\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">BusBud<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Train <\/strong>&#8211; Most intercity trains cost 350\u2013700 SEK, though tickets for as low as 225 SEK can be found for routes between Stockholm and Gothenburg (a journey which takes between 3\u20134 hours) when booked in advance. Overnight trains, like the fifteen-hour trip from Stockholm to Lule\u00e5, cost between 1,000 and 1,700 SEK per person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Arlanda Express, the train from Stockholm&#8217;s Arlanda Airport to the central station, is 340 SEK for a one-way ticket. The journey takes around 20 minutes, while the bus takes closer to 45 minutes and costs 129 SEK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To find routes and prices for trains around Sweden (and Europe), use <a href=\"https:\/\/prf.hn\/click\/camref:1101l3HUwW\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Trainline<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Flying<\/strong> &#8211; While distances in the south are short enough for comfortable train and bus rides, if you&#8217;re heading up north a plane is more convenient. Flights from Stockholm to Kiruna start at around 1,600 SEK for the 4-hour flight (the train takes over 15 hours). If you&#8217;re short on time, the flight from Stockholm to Gothenburg takes just under an hour and usually costs around 1,300 SEK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Car Rental<\/strong> &#8211; You can rent a car in Sweden for around 500 SEK per day (double that in the summer). Just keep in mind that the majority of the cars here are manual so you need to be able to drive stick (unless you pay to upgrade to an automatic). With efficient public transportation and plenty of intercity bus and train options, I would suggest against renting a car unless you&#8217;re planning to do a road trip.

The country is at its liveliest during this time, and you will find locals taking advantage of the good weather at every opportunity. The parks are always full, and there are always fun events happening around town. Temperatures are often in the 20s Celsius (60s and 70s Fahrenheit) during the summer months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The downside to visiting then is that, since Sweden has a very short summer, the cities can get busy so be sure to book your accommodation in advance. This is especially true if you are visiting during Midsommar, the big Swedish holiday at the end of June. It\u2019s a great time to experience Swedish traditions (which involve a lot of drinking).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>May typically has great weather with occasional rain, while September offers cooler temperatures and changing leaves. You\u2019ll beat the crowds and still be able to explore the city on foot without the weather getting in your way (too much).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Attractions begin to close around late September, and the days get dark early in October. Temperatures start dropping around this time too. However, prices also decrease, and you\u2019re likely to find cheaper airfares and accommodations during this time. Be sure to pack layers if you plan on visiting during this time of year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The winter is very cold and sees a lot of snow and darkness. In the depths of winter, you only get a few hours of light each day and temperatures plummet below 0\u00baC (32\u00baF). The plus side of traveling during the off-season, however, is that you\u2019ll get the cheapest accommodations and fees for certain attractions will be lower as well. While Stockholm is particularly beautiful in winter, you won\u2019t want to be walking around as much in the cold. Since it\u2019s a great city to explore on foot, you will potentially be missing out so I&#8217;d skip a winter visit unless you&#8217;re coming to enjoy winter sports.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"guide-block resources-block\"><h3 id=\"book\"><span>Sweden Travel Guide: The Best Booking Resources<\/span><\/h3><p>These are my favorite companies to use when I travel.
