The best way to get from Stockholm to Kolmården zoo by public transport
I'm going to visit Stockholm with kids and wonder what is the best option to get to the Kolmården zoo. My first thought was to take the train as the fastest transport, but as far as I understand, trains station is not that close to the Zoo.
So, what will be better: to get to the train station and go by local bus or to take the bus from the very beginning?
Best Answer
The train/bus combo is certainly the quickest with public transportation.
A cheap alternative may be swebus. It is a 3 to 4 hour ride with one stop-over in Norrköping. The ticket price seems to depend a lot - a roundtrip for a random day this summer is about 400 SEK for one person and about 1000 SEK for 2+2 persons.
Travelling with kids sure is something extra!
UPDATE: removed the Strömma bus option since it is not in service anymore. Thanks to Nitish for pointing this out!

Answer 2
The best way is to take the regional train from Stockholm to Kolmaarden, a station located in Krokek. From there buses 432 and 433 connect to the zoo.
You can go via Norrköping, but it's a detour, as all buses from there will pass through Kolmaarden station en route anyway, and that station is before Norrköping coming from Stockholm.
