Beautiful boat ride!

Beautiful boat ride around Stockholm! Our guide Emil gave us great information about the archipelago and life in this part of Sweden. We had a gorgeous, sunny afternoon. They did have number of blankets available if it's a cooler day.

Loved the antique wooden...

Loved the antique wooden boat - it was low to the water so gave a wonderful more personal and up close view. Our guide Emil was super fun and engaging and told us a great deal of information about Stockholm and its various neighborhoods and history. Our captain Karl was also great and also gave us some good boating information. Would highly recommend over some of the larger boats.

Don’t Miss

The boat ride and captain were lovely. The guide was young and ditzy, but no matter. The city is beautiful and it’s a must experience.

An excellent boat tour

Tessa was an excellent guide, and made this 90 minute trip an outstanding experience. From the start near the Royal Palace the route took us around Djurgarden Island, past many buildings and other sites of interest. We could move around on the boat and enjoy the open passenger space. Highly recommended.

Best Canal Cruise

Very professional, knowledgeable and friendly crew. The Captain of the boat handled the ship expertly through the canal and choppy waters. Amy the tour guide, had good working knowledge of local history and landmarks. She was enthusiastic, funny and kept our attention and interest.

Great Tour on the Wooden Boat

Excellent tour! The guide, whose name I did not catch, was witty, informative and very personable. We did three Viator tours while in Stockholm and this was the very best.
