Discover A Different Way To Explore Stockholm

Stockholm is Scandinavia’s largest city, and has an average of nearly 5 million visitors per year. However, that doesn’t mean you have to follow the pack. These handpicked tours and experiences will take you away from the crowds and show you Sweden’s capital in a whole new light.

Stockholm has a long and fascinating history. A unique blend of varied geography, local Nordic culture and international influences have fused here to form what is perhaps the quintessential Scandinavian city. It straddles a scattered chain of islands known as the Stockholm Archipelago, so wherever you are in the city, the Baltic Ocean reminds you of its presence.

The best way to see Stockholm is by leaving the car behind. A sprawling waterfront connects the city’s various districts, and is bristling with bridges, historic docks and cultural sites. At the centre of all this, this island of Stockholm Old Town especially rewards exploration by boat, cycle and foot. Get a new perspective on Stockholm with these unique tours.
