Stockholm Day Tours

Immersive Island City

There is a reason why Stockholm is nicknamed the 'Venice of the North' - this awe-inspiring archipelago in the Baltic Sea charms its tourists with the gorgeous Gamla Stan, its evocative waterways, and stunning skyline of spires.

The capital and largest city in Sweden, Stockholm stretches over fourteen islands from where Lake Malaran meets the Baltic Sea. Its history dates as far back as the Stone Age, and it became a city in 1252 having been founded by the Swedish statesman Birger Jarl. Stockholm has now become a cultural, media, political and economic center in Sweden, with a huge influence in Europe and globally - the Nobel Prize ceremonies are held in the Stockholm Concert Hall and Stockholm City Hall. An alpha-global city, it is the largest in Scandinavia, and produces some of the top minds in Europe at its high-ranking universities.

Stunning sightseeing spots abound in this immersive island city, from the beautiful ochre buildings of Gamla Stan (Old Town), to the sensational Storkyrkan Cathedral and Royal Palace. Cycle the cobbled streets and ride to the most regal architecture on a guided bike tour of the city, the most efficient way to see all of Stockholm in a single day. Discover its highlights and hidden gems on a family-friendly bike or e-bike tour and experience the city that basks boldly in the Baltic.
