Stockholm Walking Tour

Our locals brought you some exciting information about the best highlights in Stockholm. You can see them all in one day in Stockholm, but the first recommendation for your day in Stockholm would be … 

 

  • Gamla Stan is the vibrant center of Stockholm – the old town located on one of the 30,000 archipelago islands. Restaurants with traditional Swedish dishes invite you to many alleys and side cobblestone streets.

 

  • A visit to the Nobel Museum in Stockholm is also a good idea. It is located on Stortorget, one of the squares in the city center.

 

  • The Royal Palace is a top sight in Stockholm. It is in the center, and if you are in Stockholm for the first time, you should take a look at the Royal Palace.

 

  • The Vasa Museum: There is only one ship on display here, and it hasn’t even participated in a famous battle. But it’s not just any ship … you will find out by yourselves.

 

  • The Abba Museum in Stockholm is an entirely different type of museum, and ABBA is something more than just a Swedish pop band, and you can go on a little journey through time here.

 

  • The Skyview: a bit outside of the city center, it is a unique vantage point, and it is something unique: a ride on the outside of the world’s largest spherical building – the Ericsson Globe.
