We offer hotel pick up at all central hotels, ports and other accommodations within 3 km from Stockholm central station (please write in your hotel when you book or email it afterwards if it doesn't work or comment it afterwards, and you can use Google Maps to check your distance from Stockholm central station).
If you're staying in the Old town (where it is not possible to get in by car) or another location, we may ask you to walk a few 100 meters/few minutes to another location where we pick you up.
If you are outside the pick-up zone, we will give you directions to a meeting place that is easy to get to with public transit, depending on the other hotel.
If you are unsure if you're in or out, please email us after booking.
Pick up normally starts at 30-60 minutes before departure. Please note that this is flexible depending on different factors like the number of reservations, time of year, and traffic conditions.
We will be in touch one day in advance of a public tour with your final starting time. If you want to know beforehand or want us to arrange a fixed time for you, please contact us by email.
If your tour departs from a cruise pier:
If your ship arrives at S165 and S167 STADSGÅRDEN: Please walk a few hundred meters away from your ship while following the BLUE/GREEN lines. Go past the fences and guards, and your guide will wait there, with a sign saying "Viking Tours" on an A4-paper. NOTE: If you enter any other harbor number in STADSGÅRDEN than S165 or S167, please go outside the fences and guards, and the guide will meet you there on the time of the tour.
We recommend that you are available on cell phones to avoid issues during pick-up.
If your ship arrives at F638 FRIHAMNEN: Upon debarking the ship, please go through the terminal building. Once you go past the sliding doors (everyone else that departs the ship will walk out this way), the guide will meet you just outside the sliding doors. The guide will be holding an A4-paper saying "Viking Tours". NOTE: If you enter any other harbor number in FRIHAMNEN than F638, please go outside the fences and guards, and the guide will meet you there on the time of the tour.
If your ship arrives at V523 VÄRTAHAMNEN: Walk from your ship towards the tourist buses, which is less than 10 meters from the ship hull. The guide will wait for you at the tourist bus area, near the buses, with an A4-paper, which says "Viking Tours." The guide will then direct you to the tour vehicle. NOTE: If you enter any other harbor number in VÄRTAHAMNEN than V523, please go outside the fences and guards, and the guide will meet you there on the time of the tour.
If your ship arrives at NYNÄSHAMN: NO PICK UP INCLUDED HERE. That is due to it being 50 km away from Stockholm central station. We recommend you to contact us and decide on a meeting place in Central Stockholm. We will give directions on how to go there either by train or by taking one of the cruise buses going from the harbor into Stockholm.
Hotel pick up normally starts at 09:00 or 09:30. For the shorter tours (3-5h), 09:30 is the normal pick-up time. For the longer tours (8h), 09:00 is our usual pick-up time for the first guests. We will be in touch two days in advance of a public tour with your final starting time.
We offer hotel pick up at all central hotels, ports and other accommodations within 5km from Stockholm central station. If you're in the old town where it is not possible to get in by car, we may ask you to walk a few minutes to another location where we pick you up.
The duration of transfers are approximate; the exact duration will depend on the time of day and traffic conditions.
Comfortable walking shoes are recommended.
Hotel pick up is included.
We do not do hotel pick up if your hotel is more than 5 kilometers away from the Central Station of Stockholm. Please meet at the Central Station if your hotel is too far away.
Directions to the meeting point: Centralplan 15 is the address. Meet us by the statue of Nils Ericsson. It is located by Vasagatan, facing the Hotel Terminus on the other side of the street.
If there is a child in the group under 5 years old, please contact our office in advance to prepare a booster seat or child seat.
If possible, we would appreciate that you are reachable on a cell phone 1-2 days prior to the tour. This helps us to create a better pre-tour service for you. If you know that you cannot have a cell phone, please advise us on how to best contact you. E-mail us at info@timetraveltours.se.
Please note that departure times may vary slightly.
If you have not already specified, you MUST advise the supplier as soon as possible of your ship name, docking time, disembarkation time, and departure time so that appropriate arrangements can be made.
Travelers are not allowed to carry-on luggage in the tour vehicle. A backpack or handbag works fine though.
