We will be staying at the Grand Hotel and then needing to get a ride to a cruise ship (Crystal Symphony).
Can anyone suggest/recommend transportation means and approx. cost?
Thank you in advance!
Hi,
In Stockholm, cruise ships depart from two different berths.
One is "Stadsgården", a central location not far from Grand, and the other is the larger commercial port "Frihamnen" which is a bit further from the city, but also easy to reach. Let us know which of the berths your ship call at and we can give more detailed advice!
Edit: checked the vessel call list for stockholm 2010 and it seems Crystal Symphony is scheduled for Frihamnen. Correct?

Grand to Stadsgården Zero dollars, i.e "long walking distance" if you dont have any luggage. Otherwise I would recommend taxi, like $20 or so.
Frihamnen$30 with taxi or $3 with the subway + walk, or by bus.
