Explore the world's largest art gallery: the Stockholm metro
Hi! I'm Álvaro, a 25-year-old guide originally from Spain and currently living in Stockholm. I’m passionate about traveling around Northern Europe, exploring different cultures, and finding hidden gems in every city. I fell in love with Stockholm — its unique mix of history, design, and nature completely won me over. That’s why I started sharing the city through my eyes, with the curiosity and excitement of someone discovering it for the first time. I love chatting with people, sharing fun facts, and helping visitors experience something authentic and memorable. If you're looking to discover a different side of Stockholm, I’d love to show you around!

I'll be standing next to the statue at the entrance to Kungsträdgården metro station, wearing a white bucket hat. If you don't see me, send me a message and I'll get back to you quickly.
Description
They say that hidden beneath the streets of Stockholm is the longest art museum on the planet. But there are no tickets, no box office... just a metro card and a desire to be amazed.
On this tour, we'll visit a selection of the most fascinating stations on the Blue and Green lines: Kungsträdgården , with its ancient ruins that seem straight out of the past; T-Centralen , the blue jewel with its iconic cave; Rådhuset , where the walls look like they're carved from living stone; Stadion , which celebrates major sporting events; and Tekniska högskolan , a tribute to science and technology.
Throughout the tour, we'll discover the art, history, and legends that make the Stockholm metro unique—a true underground museum that few tourists know about.
The tour ends at T-Centralen , in the heart of the city, from where you can continue exploring Stockholm with fresh eyes.
