Arlanda to Djursholm: Arriving at a Private Residence
Updated 3 min read
Djursholm's residential streets are known for privacy — gated driveways, intercoms, properties set back from the road — which is exactly the setting where a driver benefits from a little more detail than a street address alone provides. A gate code, an intercom name, or simply knowing which of several entrances to use makes the difference between a smooth, discreet arrival and a driver working it out at the gate.
This guide covers what to include in your booking notes, and the Business class option for visitors who need a higher standard of car and driver conduct.

Gate codes and intercom names
If your residence has a gate code, an intercom that needs a specific name entered, or any other access detail, add it to your booking notes when you book. It's kept with your booking and reaches your driver directly, rather than being something you have to explain over the phone once the car has already arrived.
If you'd rather not put a code in writing, a note asking the driver to call on arrival works just as well — your driver's phone number is sent to you before pickup either way, so you can coordinate the last part of the approach directly.
Respecting privacy at drop-off
A direct, pre-booked car is inherently more private than a taxi rank or a shared transfer — one driver, one booking, and a drop-off at your address without anyone else involved. For a private residence, that discretion is often the point of booking ahead in the first place.
Booking the Business class for visiting dignitaries
For visitors who need a higher standard of vehicle and driver presentation — hosting a guest, a formal occasion, a visiting dignitary — the Business class option is available at booking. It's the same fixed-price structure and the same driver standards that apply across the fleet, in a vehicle and presentation suited to a more formal arrival.
Why Djursholm addresses call for a bit more care
Properties here are often set well back from the road, screened by hedges or trees, with driveways that can look similar from the street even when the houses themselves are quite different. A driver arriving for the first time is working from the same street view anyone unfamiliar with the area would see, so the small details you provide — a gate colour, a house name, which side of a junction — do genuine work in getting the arrival right the first time.
This is also why every driver on the platform is a licensed Swedish taxi professional, holding a taxiförarlegitimation — a private residence is exactly the kind of destination where knowing who is driving, and having their details confirmed before they arrive, matters most.

Questions people ask before booking
Can I give the driver a gate code or intercom name in advance?
Yes — add it to your booking notes and it's passed directly to your driver. If you'd rather not put a code in writing, ask the driver to call on arrival instead; their phone number is sent to you before pickup.
Is the transfer private, with no other passengers?
Yes — it's a direct, one-booking car to your address, not a shared transfer.
What is the Business class option?
A higher standard of vehicle and driver presentation, available at booking, for occasions such as hosting a formal guest — with the same fixed-price structure as the rest of the fleet.
How will I know who's driving before they arrive?
Your driver's name, phone number and licence plate are sent to you before pickup.
What if my flight is delayed?
Your flight is tracked and your pickup time follows the actual landing time, so a delay doesn't affect your booking.
