Stockholm

Experience Stockholm with us

A Stockholm vacation promises fun in the abundant snow, a Northern Lights hunt, and clean, efficient amenities.  But, the capital city of Sweden also plays host to a number of historical and cultural Stockholm attractions.  For the history buffs, a trip to the Royal Palace, the Skansen, and the Vasa Museum might be in order.  However, if you’re looking for a more lively experience, you might want to check out the amusement park in Djurgården, the ABBA museum, or the Junibacken.  And, of course, one of the most popular things to do in Stockholm is to visit the Nobel Museum, featuring the important history and contributions of previous winners of the Nobel Prize.  For adventurous travellers, you might want to try a snowmobiling expedition with a stay in a traditional cabin in the woods.  Or, try chasing down the Northern Lights as part of a multi-day trek.  It’s what to do in Stockholm when you want a glimpse of Nature’s best light show!

Our tips for Stockholm

  • Movement of Jah People. During the months of June and July, locals in Stockholm take part in a mass exodus to their summer homes.The resulting upside is a less crowded city during your Stockholm trip.The downside is that there are less locals to meet.
  • In the Boonies. Because a Stockholm tour can hurt you in your wallet, you may want to look for more affordable accommodations.Try finding a place away from the metro lines but connected by the light rail.Travel time won’t change much and you’ll enjoy a localized experience.
  • Sorry, No Change. For better or worse, Sweden has made efforts to become a cashless society.And, many of the shops, restaurants, and bars have fallen in line.So, don’t bring too much cash and make sure you have at least two bank cards or credit cards.
