Guided tours at Stockholm Arlanda Airport – Sweden’s largest airport

Every day about 50,000 passengers pass through Stockholm Arlanda Airport, which also serves as a workplace for 16,000 people. Stockholm Arlanda is by far the largest airport in Sweden and the hub of the dynamic Stockholm region. Curious? Take one of our guided tours.

Stockholm Arlanda's tour guides will tailor your visit to your wishes. They are also knowledgeable and are talented storytellers who will show you the airport and answer your questions. Does your whole company want to pay us a visit, or do you have a somewhat smaller group? Everyone is welcome to take a guided tour at Stockholm Arlanda.

Please contact us and we will arrange your visit together and customise a tour for you. You can also choose one of our tour packages, or combine more than one of them. Read more about them below.

You may choose among the following tours:

Terminal tour − what happens from check-in until a plane takes off?

You learn more about check-in, security screening, the area past the security checkpoint, baggage handling and customs in Terminal 5. You will also visit the gates and learn what happens from the time an aircraft lands until it leaves again.
Estimated duration: 1.5 hours.

Bus tour

This is a comfortable motorised tour during which you see the airport close up, including the runway system, hangars, terminals, aprons and activities around the aircraft. You also learn more about the history of Stockholm Arlanda Airport.
Estimated duration: 1.5 hours.

Control tower tour

Stockholm Arlanda Airport’s 83 metre (272 foot) tall control tower, completed in 2001, has been singled out as an example of excellent Swedish architecture. The tower symbolises the two ravens Hugin and Munin, who according to old Norse mythology watched over the world. Join a tour and experience the view from the “balcony”. On a clear day, you can see all the way to the Uppsala Cathedral. Please note that we do not visit the air traffic controllers’ workplace on this tour. 
Estimated duration: 30 minutes.

Individually tailored tours/Special tour

Everyone has different needs and wishes. You can take a guided tour adapted to the interests of yourself or your group. Do you want a tour of our snow removal vehicles, the fire station or any other special area? If you wish, we will book a lecturer with special expertise. You can also combine our various “tour packages” in order to create your own optimal tour.

Tour with shopping

Join a shopping tour past the security checkpoint. Shop for fragrances, confections and beauty products at lower prices than in the city, while seeing some of the airport. Estimated duration: You decide the time frame.
