Stockholm Airport to Uppsala transfer: the easiest way to get there
When you land at Stockholm Airport, the last thing you want is to work out how to get from the airport to Uppsala. A private airport transfer takes the question away: a Haqqi Tours driver is at arrivals when you walk out, your vehicle is parked minutes away, and the cost of the Stockholm Airport to Uppsala transfer was fixed on WhatsApp before you left home. There is no airport taxi queue, no meter running in traffic and no negotiating a fare in a language you may not speak.
This page covers everything travellers ask about the Stockholm Airport to Uppsala route: how far it is and how long it takes, whether an airport taxi, public transport or a private transfer is the better choice, what Uppsala is like, what to see there and where to stay, where you meet your driver at Stockholm Airport, which vehicles we use and how the booking works.
Arriving at Stockholm Airport (ARN)
Stockholm Arlanda (ARN) is about 40 km north of the city with Terminals 2, 4 and 5, the Arlanda Express beneath it and Uppsala about 35 km further north.
Whichever hall you come out of, the routine for a Stockholm Airport to Uppsala transfer is the same: collect your bags, clear passport control, switch on your phone, and follow the meeting instruction from your WhatsApp confirmation. Your driver already knows your flight has landed - every pickup at Stockholm Airport is tracked against the live arrival time - so there is no need to call, though a message is always welcome.
Searches for "ARN to Uppsala" or "ARN airport transfer" land here for a reason: ARN is the airport code for Stockholm Airport, and this is the private-car service that connects it with Uppsala.
Stockholm Airport to Uppsala at a glance
Service: private transfer, your own vehicle from Stockholm Airport to Uppsala, door to door. Vehicles: Sedan (1–3 passengers) and Minivan (1–7 passengers) - Mercedes, Volkswagen, Ford Transit and Peugeot Traveller models, air-conditioned, with room for luggage. Price: fixed for the whole vehicle and agreed on WhatsApp before you travel, tolls and waiting included, nothing to pay the driver on the day. Meeting: at Stockholm Airport, at the point named in your confirmation, with flight tracking so a delay moves the pickup. Booking: the form on this page or a WhatsApp message; confirmation in writing within minutes, in Arabic or English.
Taxi or private transfer from Stockholm Airport to Uppsala?
An airport taxi from Stockholm Airport to Uppsala means finding the official rank, waiting your turn, and paying whatever the meter shows at the end - more at night, more in traffic, and sometimes more if the driver takes the long way. A private transfer from Haqqi Tours replaces all of that with one agreed price for the whole car, confirmed in writing on WhatsApp before you fly.
For one traveller with a small bag, a taxi or public transport can be a fair choice. For two or more people, a family with children, or anyone with real luggage, a private transfer is normally the cheapest way to get from Stockholm Airport to Uppsala per person - and by far the easiest. Public transport to Uppsala involves changes, tickets and stairs; a private car goes to the hotel door.
There is also the question of trust. Our drivers know the hotels of Uppsala, work on a fixed price, and never take a detour or add a "special fare" at the end. Your booking is confirmed by a real person on a WhatsApp desk that works in Arabic and English, and that same desk is reachable throughout your trip.
Public transport from Stockholm Airport to Uppsala: is there a bus, train or metro?
Public transport from Stockholm Airport runs mainly into Stockholm itself: the Arlanda Express reaches the Central Station in 18 minutes and suits a city hotel with a cabin bag; Södermalm's hills, Solna, Uppsala or a family with luggage are simpler by car from the terminal. Reaching Uppsala from there means a further connection with your luggage, which is where a door-to-door car saves the most time and effort.
So the honest comparison for Uppsala is this: public transport is the cheapest option for one person with a cabin bag and time to spare, and a private Stockholm Airport to Uppsala transfer is the better one for everybody else - two or more travellers, families, older relatives, anyone landing late, anyone with proper luggage. The price is per vehicle, not per person, which is why a family of four often pays less than it would on four bus or train tickets plus the taxi at the end.
About Uppsala
Uppsala is a historic university city about 35 km north of Arlanda Airport and about 70 km north of Stockholm. Uppsala is Sweden's fourth-largest city and the seat of Scandinavia's oldest university, founded in 1477. Its skyline is dominated by the twin spires of Uppsala Cathedral, the largest church in the Nordic countries, and by the pink Uppsala Castle on its hill. The Gustavianum museum holds an anatomical theatre, and the Linnaeus Garden recalls the botanist Carl Linnaeus, who taught here. Just north, Gamla Uppsala has great royal burial mounds from the Iron Age. The Fyris River runs through the leafy centre with its cafés and student life. The drive runs north on the E4 through open farmland.
Things to do in Uppsala
Once you have checked in, Uppsala is worth exploring: Uppsala Cathedral, Uppsala Castle, Gustavianum museum, Linnaeus Garden and Gamla Uppsala burial mounds. Your driver can point some of them out on the way in, and the WhatsApp desk can arrange a car for a day out if you want to see more.
Stockholm itself is within reach for a day: the ABBA Museum, City Hall and its tower and a boat through the archipelago - the same WhatsApp desk arranges the car there and back.
Where to stay in Uppsala
Where you stay in Uppsala makes no difference to the price of the transfer, which is fixed for the whole vehicle. The places most travellers choose: City centre along the Fyris River, Near Uppsala Central Station and Near the university quarter - and any other address is fine too.
The central streets by the river and cathedral are partly pedestrian; drop-off is easiest at your hotel entrance or near the Central Station.
Meeting your driver at Stockholm Airport
Your confirmation message on WhatsApp includes the meeting arrangement for Stockholm Airport - it varies by airport, between an indoor meeting point, a specific exit and a driver with a sign at the arrivals door - along with your driver's name and number. With flight tracking, your driver is there the minute you land, and the waiting time is included in the fixed price.
Up to 60 minutes of waiting is included (90 minutes at some airports), and if you are delayed at baggage or passport control a quick WhatsApp message keeps your driver informed. On the way back, the driver collects you from the hotel at an agreed time with enough margin for your flight from Stockholm Airport.
Our vehicles for the Uppsala transfer
For this route we offer Sedan (1–3 passengers) and Minivan (1–7 passengers). The vans are Mercedes, Volkswagen, Ford Transit and Peugeot Traveller models, all recent, air-conditioned and cleaned between journeys, with proper luggage space rather than a crowded boot. Choose the vehicle by how many of you are travelling and how much luggage you bring; the desk will tell you if a larger vehicle would be more comfortable.
Child seats and booster seats are available on request - say the ages of the children when you book and we bring the right ones. Extra-large luggage, sports equipment and wheelchairs are all fine; just mention them so the right vehicle is sent.
Every vehicle is checked and cleaned between journeys, and the drivers know the hotels of Uppsala and their side streets, so you are delivered to the right gate, not just the main road.
Who books the Uppsala transfer
Who uses a private transfer from Stockholm Airport to Uppsala? Couples who would rather not start a holiday in a taxi queue; families who need child seats and space for a pushchair; groups of six to thirteen who want to arrive together in one vehicle; business travellers with a meeting the same day; and travellers landing at night, when public transport is thin and a fixed price is worth more than ever. Every one of them books the same way - a WhatsApp message - and gets the same written confirmation.
Many guests add a second leg later in the trip: a day out from Uppsala, an onward transfer or the return to Stockholm Airport. It is all handled in the chat you already have open.
How to book your Uppsala transfer
Booking is simple: fill in the form on this page or message us on WhatsApp with your flight number, the date, the number of passengers and your hotel in Uppsala. A member of our team replies within minutes to confirm the price and the meeting point. Payment is arranged on WhatsApp as well, in whichever way suits you, and your confirmation is written down so nothing is left to memory.
Changes and cancellations are handled through the same WhatsApp conversation. Because the terms depend on conditions such as how close to the pickup time the request is made, our team will explain exactly what applies to your booking when you ask - always before any payment, never as a surprise afterwards.
Good to know before you land at Stockholm Airport
Arlanda has Terminals 2, 4 and 5 - tell us the airline and flight number - and if your stay is in Uppsala or Solna say so, since the drive from the airport goes in a different direction from the city.
Note the terminal or hall your flight uses at Stockholm Airport, and if you change flights before travel tell the desk - the pickup is tracked against the flight number we hold.
If you are two households or a group, say how many bags as well as how many people; luggage decides the vehicle more often than passengers do.
Uppsala to Stockholm Airport: the return transfer
Heading back to Stockholm Airport at the end of the stay is just as easy - tell us the flight time and the hotel, and a driver is at the door with time to spare. Many travellers also use the desk for a day trip or an onward transfer from Uppsala; everything is arranged in the same WhatsApp chat.
On departure day the desk suggests a pickup time from Uppsala based on your flight and the traffic expected at that hour, and confirms it in writing; if you would like to leave earlier for last-minute shopping or a meal near Stockholm Airport, that is arranged in the same message.

Why travellers choose Haqqi Tours for Uppsala transfers
Haqqi Tours is a travel company, not a taxi app: the people who confirm your Stockholm Airport to Uppsala transfer are the same people you can message at midnight when the flight is late. The price is fixed and written down, the driver is a licensed professional who does this road regularly, the vehicle is what we said it would be, and if anything on the day is not as promised, one message to the desk puts it right.
Pickup options and waiting time
When you book on WhatsApp, you choose one of two pickup options for your arrival:
- Flight tracking: your driver is at arrivals the minute your flight lands and waits for up to 60 minutes. If your flight lands at 2:00 pm, the driver is there at 2:00 pm.
- Fixed time (no tracking): your driver arrives at a time you choose and waits for up to 60 minutes from that time. Send us your flight number and we check its real landing times over the past 10 days to recommend the best pickup time.
At most airports the included waiting time is 60 minutes; at some it is 90 minutes. We confirm the exact waiting time for your airport when you book with us on WhatsApp. After that, the driver cannot wait longer: the fixed price is based on one hour of airport parking and the driver's time, and with more than 30 transfers a day, every booking is scheduled back to back.
With flight tracking, normal delays are covered. If your flight is delayed by more than 5 hours, we cannot guarantee a new pickup at the last minute, because the new arrival time is uncertain and other transfers are already scheduled. Message us as soon as the delay is announced: we always do our best to rearrange, but it depends on the number of bookings that day. With a fixed-time pickup, the time slot is reserved for you and cannot be changed on the day, even if your flight is delayed or something unexpected happens.
Two hours before your flight lands, we send you your driver's name and phone number on WhatsApp. If you are still in the air, the message will be waiting for you as soon as you switch on your phone. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
