Begin with an overview of the city and its layout from a viewpoint on Fjällgatan. This popular hilltop is a regular stop for visitors to the city who want to make the most of a photo opportunity. Look out for the residential areas, as well as the entertainment district and the industrial port.
Heading into the heart of the city, your guide will introduce you to the main highlights and biggest attractions. See the icons that feature on postcards of Stockholm, including the charming Royal Palace, the inner harbour and Gamla Stan; the famous medieval Old Town.
Situated on the island of Djurgården, the home of Stockholm’s historical buildings, monuments, museums, galleries and an amusement park, is the Vasa Museum. Built around the almost fully intact 17th century warship that was salvaged after sinking on her maiden voyage in 1628, this is ranked as the most visited museum in Scandinavia.
The 64 gun warship stands proudly for visitors to admire and the museum can be seen for miles around due the ship’s masts protruding from the roof. Take time to explore. Peer into the living compartments of the sailors, see relics and artifacts pulled up from the sea bed and learn about why the king’s pride and joy never made it further than her home city.
