We travelled to Stockholm in September 2024 and bought a 2-day Go City All-Inclusive Pass, which we used to visit 11 attractions. Based on our experience, the Stockholm City Pass was worth it for our trip.
The pass suited us because we like active trips and wanted to see several attractions. However, whether it’s worth buying depends on your itinerary, pace and the attractions you actually want to visit.
What is the Stockholm City Pass?
The Go City Stockholm Pass gives you access to a selection of attractions without having to buy a separate ticket for each one. Go City currently offers two types of passes in Stockholm. The Essentials Pass lets you choose three attractions, while the All-Inclusive Pass lets you visit as many included attractions as you want during its validity period.
This Pass should not be confused with the Stockholm Travelcard. Go City covers attractions and sightseeing, while the Travelcard covers public transport. We explain how the two can work together later in this guide.
How much does the Stockholm City Pass cost?
As of September 2026, the Go City Stockholm Essentials Pass starts at SEK 649 per adult, while the All-Inclusive Pass starts at SEK 949 per adult. The price of the All-Inclusive Pass depends on the duration you choose, from one to five days.
| Pass | Duration / attractions | Adult price |
| Essentials Pass | 3 attractions | SEK 649 |
| All-Inclusive Pass | 1 day | SEK 949 |
| All-Inclusive Pass | 2 days | SEK 1,349 |
| All-Inclusive Pass | 3 days | SEK 1,699 |
| All-Inclusive Pass | 4 days | SEK 1,949 |
| All-Inclusive Pass | 5 days | SEK 1,999 |
Prices checked in September 2026. Go City prices and promotions can change, so we recommend checking the current price before buying.
Essentials vs All-Inclusive: which should you choose?
Go City offers two Stockholm passes. The Essentials Pass lets you choose three attractions from a smaller selection. The All-Inclusive Pass lets you visit as many included attractions as you like during the number of days you select.
We chose the All-Inclusive Pass because we wanted to fit several attractions into two days. If you prefer a slower trip with only a few priorities, the Essentials Pass may suit you better.
| Essentials Pass | All-Inclusive Pass | |
| How it works | Choose 3 attractions | Visit as many included attractions as you like |
| Attractions available | 15 | 68 |
| Validity after activation | 30 days | 1–5 consecutive days, depending on pass |
| Best for | A few priority attractions | Several attractions in a short time |
| Starting price | SEK 649 | SEK 949 |
| What we used | – | ✓ 2-day pass |
Attraction numbers checked in September 2026 and may change.
What attractions are included?
The Go City Stockholm Pass includes museums, palaces, tours and other activities. Some of our personal favourites were the Vasa Museum, Skansen, Gröna Lund and Drottningholm Palace.
Before visiting Stockholm, we already knew we wanted to see the Vasa Museum and Drottningholm Palace, as both came up repeatedly during our trip research. They were included in our All-Inclusive Pass, although the exact attractions available depend on which pass you choose.
Having such a large choice also encouraged us to try attractions we might otherwise have skipped. However, the attraction list can change, so check Go City’s current attraction list before choosing your pass.
Important limitations to consider
Not every Stockholm attraction is included, and the selection can change, so always check that your must-sees are covered before buying.
Another limitation we experienced was opening hours. During our September 2024 trip, many attractions closed at around 5pm, which gave us a shorter window to use the pass. We therefore tried to minimise travel time between attractions and plan our days around closing times.
This matters especially with the All-Inclusive Pass: the more time you spend at each attraction or travelling between them, the fewer places you can realistically visit in a day.
Does the Stockholm Pass actually save money?
From our experience, yes, the Go City Stockholm Pass can save you money. During our September 2024 trip, our 2-day pass cost less than buying individual tickets for all 11 attractions we visited. However, buying a pass doesn’t automatically mean you’ll save.
Before buying, list the attractions you genuinely want to visit and compare their individual ticket prices with the cost of the pass. The result depends on which attractions you choose and how many you can realistically visit.
Current break-even examples
Whether the Stockholm Pass saves you money depends heavily on the attractions you choose.
Using adult ticket prices checked in September 2026, here are three examples showing how the value of the pass can change depending on your itinerary:
| Example itinerary | Individual tickets | Pass price | Difference |
| Essentials: Vasa + Skansen + Stockholm Highlights Boat Tour | SEK 930 | SEK 649 | SEK 281 less with pass |
| 1-day All-Inclusive: Vasa + Royal Palace + Viking Museum | SEK 659 | SEK 949 | SEK 290 more with pass |
| 1-day All-Inclusive: Vasa + Royal Palace + Viking Museum + Skansen + Nobel Prize Museum | SEK 1,124 | SEK 949 | SEK 175 less with pass |
Prices checked in September 2026 for comparison purposes. Attraction prices, pass prices and inclusions can change, and some attraction prices vary by season.
These examples show why the number of attractions alone doesn’t determine whether the pass is worth it. The attractions you choose matter just as much. Three higher-priced attractions can make the Essentials Pass worthwhile, while the 1-day All-Inclusive Pass may require a much busier itinerary before you start saving.
When buying individual tickets is cheaper
If you only want to visit one or two attractions, individual tickets will often make more sense, especially compared with the All-Inclusive Pass. The same can apply if your must-see attractions have relatively low admission prices.
Most importantly, don’t add attractions you don’t actually care about just to make the pass “worth it”. The pass should fit your itinerary, rather than your itinerary being built around the pass.
Our real experience using a 2-day Go City Stockholm Pass
We bought a 2-day All-Inclusive Pass during our four-day trip to Stockholm in September 2024. We paid SEK 1,214.10 per person, or SEK 2,428.20 for both of us.
We decided to buy it after spending our first day exploring Stockholm’s city centre. We still had several attractions we wanted to visit, and their individual ticket prices were quickly adding up. Over the next two days, we used our passes at 11 attractions.
At the time, we compared the pass price with the individual ticket prices and found that it saved us money. Since those prices have changed, we can’t accurately calculate our exact 2024 saving today.
Day 1: 5 attractions
We started at Drottningholm Palace, arriving early to avoid the crowds. We were among the first people inside when it opened and loved both the palace and its surroundings. It was one of our must-sees before the trip, and we’d definitely visit again.
Afterwards, we headed to the Royal Palace and then the Royal Armoury. We enjoyed the palace, while the Armoury had some interesting exhibits but became a little repetitive for us, so we went through it relatively quickly.
Next was the Nobel Prize Museum, where we enjoyed learning about the discoveries and achievements connected to the Nobel Prize. We then finished at ICEBAR Stockholm, which surprised us the most that day. We hadn’t expected much from it, but the ice sculptures, music and atmosphere made it a really fun experience. Our pass also included a drink served in an ice glass.
By the end of the day, we were exhausted but happy with how much we’d managed to see. We had used the pass at five attractions without feeling that we’d rushed through them.
Day 2: 6 attractions
We started at the Vasa Museum, one of our must-sees before arriving in Stockholm. Seeing the enormous ship up close was incredible, and it ended up being one of our favourite attractions of the trip.
Next was the Viking Museum, which we also really enjoyed, before heading to the Butterfly House. This was one of our least favourite attractions. We probably wouldn’t have paid to visit it separately. Having it included in the pass made us more willing to give it a try.
We then visited Nordiska Museet. Some of the exhibitions were really interesting, and it was particularly peaceful during our visit, but by this point we were starting to get tired.
Skansen was a last-minute addition because we still had some time before it closed. We only spent around an hour there, which wasn’t nearly enough to see everything, but we were still glad we’d fitted it in.
We finished at Gröna Lund, which stayed open later than the other attractions during our September 2024 visit. After a short rest at our hotel, we returned for rides, games and food. It became one of our favourite experiences in Stockholm and was a great way to finish our two days with the pass.
By the time we returned to our hotel, we had walked around 19 km that day and were exhausted. But we’d managed to use the pass at six attractions, including several of our favourites from the entire trip.
Did we feel rushed?
Surprisingly, we didn’t feel rushed while we were inside the attractions. The pressure was mostly between them, as we tried to minimise travel time and arrive before closing. We never left somewhere halfway through just to fit another attraction into the day.
The pace was tiring, but it suited the way we like to travel. If we visited Stockholm in the same way again, we’d still choose the 2-day All-Inclusive Pass.
Pros and cons of the Stockholm Go City Pass
| Pros | Cons |
| Can save money if you visit enough included attractions | The upfront price is relatively high |
| Encouraged us to try attractions we might otherwise have skipped | You may feel pressure to fit enough attractions into each day |
| Easy to keep the pass and QR code on our phones | Limited opening hours can reduce how much you can fit in |
| More convenient than buying separate tickets at every attraction | The All-Inclusive Pass offers poor value if you only visit a few attractions |
| Large selection of attractions with the All-Inclusive Pass | Some attractions require advance reservations |
How to get the most value from your pass
- Start with popular attractions early. We prioritised attractions we expected to be busy and arrived near opening time when possible. This helped us spend less of the day waiting in queues.
- Prioritise your must-sees. Start with the attractions you genuinely don’t want to miss before adding anything else to your itinerary.
- Group nearby attractions together. We often walked between attractions that were close to each other, which helped reduce travel time and made it easier to fit more into the day.
- Check opening hours and reservations in advance. Opening hours affected how much we could fit into our days, and some Go City attractions currently require advance reservations.
- Plan a rough route before you start. We were fairly spontaneous, but if we did it again, we’d plan the order of our main attractions beforehand while leaving room to add something nearby.
Stockholm City Pass vs SL Travelcard
We used a 72-hour Stockholm Travelcard alongside our 2-day Go City Pass, and the two worked well together. Go City covered our attractions, while the Travelcard covered public transport.
Some attractions were too far apart to walk between efficiently, so having unlimited public transport helped us spend less time travelling between them. If you’re considering using both, read our Stockholm Travelcard guide to see how it works and whether it makes sense for your trip.
Our final verdict: is the Stockholm City Pass worth it?
Looking back at our trip, the 2-day All-Inclusive Pass was worth it for us. It allowed us to experience a lot in a limited amount of time, which suited the way we like to travel.
However, don’t automatically assume it’s the best option for you. Before buying, check which attractions are included and realistically consider how many you would visit each day.
If we returned to Stockholm, we’d happily buy the pass again to discover new attractions and revisit some of our favourites. We’d particularly recommend it to travellers who love exploring and enjoy active trips. It’s best suited to people who aren’t afraid of having days filled to the brim.
