Customer reviews of tours in Sweden

Exactly as advertised: a boat tour around the archipelago. Scenery was beautiful but the best part was our guide. Joanes did a great job presenting Swedish history, geography, and keeping us interested. He was so friendly and helpful and offered recommendations for shopping and restaurants, too!

Lovely way to better understand life on the many islands of Stockholm and Sweden. Our ship captain was witty and informative.

Great opportunity to travel out of Stockholm. Enjoyable experience and opportunity to learn about Sweden.

Pretty good, great price for what you get ! Very beautiful especially during the evening 18:00 ride. We met some nice people. Tour guide was okay.

We had a great team (Issa, Marika and Viggo) on the boat who made everything run smoothly. The guide was knowledgeable and friendly, answering questions throughout and finding ways to keep people engaged. We were lucky to have sunny, warm weather which really helped make the scenery pop!

The route was lovely and the guide was very informative and entertaining. They left plenty of time for you to absorb your surroundings in silence. It was very cold and we sat outside, but they provided blankets to keep us warm. Highly recommend!

We really enjoyed the cruise around the islands of Stockholm. While the boat was quite crowded, everyone did have a seat, though you may need to share a table. The commentary was excellent and very informative. The facilities were clean, and the activity was well organised from start to finish. I also appreciated the thoughtful touch of providing paper towel so passengers could keep the large picture windows free of fog, which made a real difference to the experience. A great way to see the archipelago and learn more about the area. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Lovely tour and great and informative guide. It helped we had perfect weather too! Very easy and good experience.

Great view of the islands. Knowledgable tour guide. Get there first to grab seats up on the bow. It can get cold up there

It was very nice , the guide and people from the boat was excellent, very kind Was perfect and on time the trip also you can get some food and drinks on the boat if you tape the trip at 15:30 pm

Pleasant cruise. We were able to access commentary in several languages via headphones. There was free tea (though no milk). The staff were very nice and the boat was comfy and clean. We enjoyed the ride and it was easy to find the boat by the royal palace dock front (side on to the Palace).

Really nice trip for those who don't have much time and those who love to see the bigger picture of the city, to see what you can find and to see a little more outside the tourist attractions and to learn something new from the audio guide : Only I hoped the windows where clearer so I can shoot more photos, but i think it is normal :D

Great altogether. Comfortable. Good route. On time. Nice people. Clean. Different languages available.

Easy to find,helpful staff, wonderful way to see Stockholm from the water. A must do while in Stockholm

It's the best way to see Stockholm City. It was organized and not crowded. Highly recommended when you visit Sweden.

A very enjoyable tour - comfortable ship, good facilities and a super friendly guide who not only gave interesting and informative facts over the loudspeakers but circulated to check if we had any additional questions. 👍😁

our guided tour was awesome. Our tour guide was Paula and she was great! very knowledgeable, funny and has a very happy personality. The tour was worth every penny u paid given the duration and the included Fika. The Vindhem ship was very comfortable and had plenty of seats for everyone. Thank you! My family and I had a wonderful time.

Guide very competent, the whole crew very friendly, and very helpful. Guide was able to speak German, English, Swedish.

Amazing! It was a beautiful day! The fika was fun to experience and the guide shared great facts about the historic islands of Sweden!

The tour was great. It is worth the time and money. The guide is very good and gives a clear description of all the landmarks and also the historic significance.

The Guide was fantastic!! And so nice that the music was not to high/loud! And extra plus for the Fika!

The girl who speaks has a contagious energy and happiness, very nice and pleasant, very happy with the walk.

Lovely boat trip with friendly staff who made you feel most welcome on board. The guide was very knowledgable and gave lots of interesting information in an enthusiastic manner. Highly recommend the tour.

Very interesting tour with so nice guide. Beside the regular speech, the guide was walking around the boat to answer to passenger's questions and curiousity. Delicious add-on the included fika time.

We are very satisfied from the whole experience! The boat was nice and cozy, the staff was very friendly and polite, we were served coffee and a local sweet and our guide Paula was simply the best 🤍 Highly recommend 😄 Greetings from Greece!

Excellent viewing of the Swedish islands ! We went in May and the weather was perfection

we had shenanigans with booking the same table and also rain leaking to our table but the crew was absolutely lovely and handled it perfectly

Marc, Ludwig and Johan were great hosts, loved the quiz!! Fab cruise with good quality food. Excellent value for money

The boat is enclosed which was wonderful for us in May. The service was friendly, seeing the area from the water was beautiful. There was a mix-up in the type of pizza I was supposed to get but they were able to find a cheese pizza to offer me. Also, no one met us at the Gustav statue, you have to find them from there.

It’s a really nice experience. Pizza was really good and the staff was amazing. There are drinks and deserts for purchase, if needed. 100% recommended.

This was a great way to see Stockholm. Very laid back and enjoyable. Bella was a wonderful hostess. Would recommend to anyone who wants a break from the hustle and bustle and wants to enjoy beautiful scenery.

We enjoyed the trip, given the fact we booked it just a few hours in advance. It was well-organized, the music selection was great, the views of Stockholm were stunning, and the pizza was fresh and delicious!

We got drinks, went around the canals, and had some great pizza! It was a great trip and got to see beautiful views!!

It was a lovely experience! The crew (Ananda, Johan & Andreas) made us feel very welcome and comfortable! Pizza tasted amazing and the total vibe and atmosphere was spectacular! 💯 recommend this!

Nice boat ride. Staff were courteous and everything was conducted in English. No narration of landmarks, pizzas were fine but a little basic.

Had good communication with vendor company. I was impressed with their attention to detail and follow up.

The pizza, crew and views were excellent. A nice way to get a view of Stokholm from the river. Be aware that this is not a narrated tour but was still an enjoyable tour.

Very good tour. Crew team was very. friendly and helpful. They even had a trivia game where they gave out prizes.

Very pleased, relaxing and informative with on board refreshments and restroom facilities. Would give the staff a 9/10 as they could of come round and sold and served refreshment. That would have been good for business. Maybe something to think about in future.

A nice 2 hour boat ride around the lakes and the canals of Stockholm. Gives a very different perspective of the city when seen from the water. The only issue is the audio guide is often not sync. with the view

Well done informative boat tour! Lots of history, scenery and fun. Enjoyable ride! Would do it again

It was an excellent tour. It is a small boat and there were about 10 guests. The captain was excellent and provided very interesting information about the city. I especially enjoyed getting out at old fort on an island in the harbor.

"Good view of Stockholm from the water. Note that the departure times are 11am and 2pm. Viator originally listed 10 am so we were at the docks way too early. The open deck at the rear of the boat is best for unobstructed picture taking but it can get cold there."

I like the most was very comfortable and stylish boat. The guide and captain were very helpful. Itinerary wasalso good.

It is out and back so you see the same things twice. The in-your-ear audio system was not synced to the loudspeakers and malfunctioned. I will say I recommend this because it is a good way to see the city.

A very great trip, ran very well and you get to see the majority of the sites and areas needed, very good.

Variety of information in a short period of time. Wonderful overview of various significant buildings in Stockholm.

Excellent cruise around the Stockholm waterways, good value for money and very helpful crew onboard.

The cruise took you right around Stockholm and it was worth the money. It's a pre recorded voice telling you information and pointing out buildings. Went for a decent 2hrs

This is a nice boat tour around various points of interest around the Stockholm city islands and waterways. You'll see lots of sights, learn some history, and enjoy a boat ride for about 2 hrs. Good value for the price.

The green garden, the theater are very nice. Also the description that we heard from headphones gave us good explanation.

Nice way to get to know Stockholm’s canals, historical buildings, spots of famous events (i.e. spot where the ship Vasa sunk) from the water. Seats are comfortable, audio was easy to follow, and it is available in different languages.

The trip was beautiful and interesting. I wish I had signed up for the 2.5 hour cruise to see more. Gunnar, the person who narrated the trip made it really fascinating and fun. He talked about all the sights and history in just the right amount of detail, and was also fun and interactive - but not too much. He was fantastic.

It is a great tour lots of interesting sites they tell u about! It was on time but not long enough! It is well worth the time.

Easy really fun informative 1 hour tour. Audio and headsets provided. Very fun and great crew. Calm waters and everyone has a good view.

Comfortable boat, headsets and prerecorded audio was okay no one to answer questions but a nice wsy to see other parts of stockholm

This was a very nice, slow tour with excellent recorded narration around a few of the islands, providing interesting details and historic facts about the city. Well worth it!

The boat we boarded left on time and the seats were comfortable and traveled a very beautiful route and the boat staff was very kind and polite. I will definitely recommend my friends to experience this short trip.

Very good audio guide. Nice views of the city. Very windy north of djurgarden island, but very nice boattrip.

Very nice way to spend an hour or so exploring Stockholm waterways. We went in October and enjoyed the scenery, sites and autumnal trees. Good commentary too, in a number of languages. Recommended!

Very nice trip and friendly and helpful staff. I really can recommend this company to see Stockholm on the water.

The scenery around us. I loved seeing the parks and greenery. A leisurely trip with a good audio guide.

This was a beautiful boat tour. Daniel was very informative about what we were seeing and also about the culture of the Swedish people. We loved it and learned a lot!

Our guide was really great, the length was nice, and it was informative - a proper tour in English. I'd recommend it!

Josefina was a great guide and the captain was very nice to. We learned a lot and had a great time!!

Very enjoyable ride! Would recommend as a fun way to see the city. Our guide was great at sharing facts. Comfortable boat.

Small more intimate sightseeing experience with Carolina and Kim. Very enjoyable, highly recommended

Myrna and Stewart did a great job. Our tour was almost a private one. It was a general overview of the different islands and landmarks from the water.

The tour guide (Daniel?) was full of intriguing stories about all the things— and more— that we passed on the tour. I hardly looked around, so riveted was I to what he was saying.

This tour was excellent and was highlighted by the funny and informative tour guide, Fabian. We were very glad we booked this tour. The seat cushions provided made the ride very comfortable. Fabian made this tour very enjoyable

Heidi was a great tour guide on our electric boat tour around Stockholm. She had great tidbits and witty feedback to typical tourist questions. Well worth the trip and the value.

We loved the sightseeing tour of Vaxholm. Our tour guide, Olivia, was very friendly and gave us lots of information during the tour. We saw the main sights on the island and had a fika. I highly recommend this activity.

Excellent and very friendly guide, a lot of valuable information and interesting historical background. Beautiful scenery of landscape.

Olivia has such a lovely way of introducing her guests to the country and its people. She also knows a lot about the flora and fauna in the area. And the fika in such a beautiful café in the garden. Very great. We enjoyed the day in the best weather.

It was a wonderful tour to Vaxholm. The tour guide made the whole day something very special! The charming guide introduced us to the history of Sweden, the nature and the way of life, as well as things to do, in a very special way. Highly recommended. Thank you very much!

Oliva's warmth and knowledge make this tour a unique experience. Her vast understanding of Scandinavian culture makes the time fly by. Highly recommended.

Olivia has an incredibly broad and deep knowledge of Swedish culture. She also seemed very enthusiastic, warm, and kind. We spent wonderful hours with her and are very grateful for that. The trip was an absolute highlight for us. Thank you so much!

The pizza was delicious, and it wasn't that crowded either. The best thing is that we saw a sea otter. The boat sailed very comfortably.

A lovely boat trip! Friendly and helpful staff on board. I just thought it was strange that the boat had to turn around to get the pizzas delivered. The pizzas weren't as hot anymore, but they were still very tasty.

Everything was great. Meeting point, departure, lovely trip, pizza and other food and drink. Wonderful sailing trip.

I highly recommend this cruise to anyone who wants to get some distance from the stress of the big city.

We really liked it. A perfect day, plenty of space, and beautiful views.

The cruise tour was very pleasant and allowed us to admire the city from a different perspective.

Sweet, nice, skilled and attentive waiters. We could mostly communicate in Danish; it was nice to experience two Nordic languages that can still understand each other. Lovely, first-class prawns. There was nothing missing. It was really good value for money. The old Vaxholm fortress was a nice break during the trip. A beautiful trip through the Skærgården, and we were incredibly lucky with the weather. A great end to a lovely week in Stockholm. A city that has so much to offer. But the only thing missing in this beautiful, clean metropolis is access to public toilets.

Great tour of the archipelago with delicious food and a friendly crew

An amazing trip through the archipelago, generous amounts of food – the bowl was never empty – reasonable prices for drinks and desserts, super friendly, courteous, and attentive staff, perfect planning. Absolutely recommended if you want to experience a highlight in Stockholm.

The meeting point was very easy to find. The staff on board were very friendly and could always answer questions about the surrounding area. Shrimp and bread were automatically refilled. We had a lot of fun.

This trip is superb, and the staff on board are very friendly. The shrimp are excellent. It's a shame that the tables have to be shared with strangers, but I recommend it. It's really a great experience.

It was a great cruise. Beautiful ding and great service. enjoyed the scenic sailing.

Straightforward process, very nice welcome on board. Beautiful route along the archipelago

The food seemed like it was tinned steak. It would have been nice to have stories about what we were sailing past.

We really enjoyed the trip and the lunch on this cruise. It was very romantic, and worth it, highly highly recommended!

Happy and nice! Did I say good too? The weather could have been a little better, but otherwise there was nothing to complain about.

A very nice excursion. We had chosen fish for dinner, which was an excellent choice. We can only recommend the excursion and the food.

Very good service and lunch food was ok, and it did taking us to Drottningholm could not be better than that.

It is such a nice experience to see the Stockholm archipelago. Really lovely tour, nice Swedish lunch and such a nice guide. Highly recommended!!

My sister and I had an amazing day with Håkan and his partner in the archipelago. Håkan is a great sailing instructor—patient, knowledgeable, and fun. From start to finish, they created such a welcoming and positive atmosphere. They took us to an island with an old bunker, shared fascinating stories about sailing and shared some of Sweden’s history, and served a delicious traditional three-course lunch. It was the perfect mix of adventure, culture, and relaxation. Couldn’t recommend it more, an absolute highlight of our trip!

The hosts were absolutely amazing. Very knowledgeable and gave everyone a chance to try a different aspect of the sailing and the lunch they provided was above and beyond.

This was an amazing tour of the Archipelago. It was so beautiful and a lovely way to spend a day on the water. Our hosts were very friendly and thoughtful in their preparation of food and snacks. You can help in the sailing as much or as little as you want to. Highly recommend!

The sailboat's captain and owner was very friendly and encouraged the 4 passengers to get to know one another. We stopped near an island to discern the location of ABBA's cottage, and then later stopped at a different island to explore around, swim, and then have an included lunch served on the sailboat. Lunch was lovely in presentation and delicious as well. On the way back, anyone who wanted to was invited to try their hand at sailing. This trip would be especially fun if you were traveling with people you know as it is a full 8 hours on the boat.

"This was a really lovely day. Beautiful scenery, interesting chats -as the captain would say “sailing with friends”! And a seal sighting as a bonus. We were very welcomed and despite me having no sailing experience, I was put immediately at ease and at the helm! Lunch and snacks were very tasty too. Highly recommend."

One of the highlights of our trip! Our guide was rather reserved, but we had a lovely day with him. Fabulous lunch. Lots of wine. A really memorable day on the water.

Great day of sailing on the archipelago. My twelve year old son thoroughly enjoyed it and spent most of the day at the helm, thanks to the patience of our fantastic host. Lunch was delicious as well! A definite highlight of our trip.

It was my first time sailing and got the opportunity to have a full experience thanks to our operator. He took us around the archipielago visiting several sites, we docked in an Island for a nice afternoon lunch and fika and headed back to our pick up point.

It was a great day. We had the real sailing experience in Sweden. A perfect lunch with more sailing. Unforgettable.

Incredible personalized experience! Eric was friendly, kind, and extremely knowledgeable about sailing.

What a fun experience! Joachim was such a knowledgeable captain, I learned so much about sailing and what it is like to be out on the water. Joachim was calm and patient with us novice sailors as we took a turn at the helm. The trip through the archipelago was customized to the winds and traffic on the water and it was such a unique experience. The scenery was stunning and this was such an impactful way to see the beautiful country of Sweden! This was a truly delightful outing!

Everything was great! We were able to book easily, the food was quite good, the service was nice, and the duration of the activity was perfect!

My partner and I enjoyed the dinner cruise, the food was delicious and the staff were very friendly and kind. The tour guide did her best, but she kept referring to the “right” and “left” side of the boat to view landmarks and it confused many people as we sat facing opposite sides inside the dinner area. It would’ve been helpful to have proper boat terms used like “starboard” or “port” used to avoid confusion. The dinner room was quite chatty, so we couldn’t really hear the guide over the loud speakers half the time, but we still enjoyed the views when we sat outside the boat, they provided blankets!

My 15 year old son and I enjoyed this trip immensely. Our guide was amusing as well as informative. A great way to see a bit more of Sweden and to learn about its history. The lunch was outstanding. We had haddock in a lobster sauce and it was 5*. Worth every penny!!

The lunch was great and atmosphere on the boat. However, the noise level made it impossible to hear the guide, which was very disappointing.

This was a lovely way to get an overview of the islands. Lunch was amazing, better than anyone could expect.

A very good experience, with many discoveries. A very nice cruise tour with magnificent scenery. I highly recommend it.

It was such an amazing way to spend our afternoon in Stockholm. A dinner, a boat trip, a charismatic guide and so beautiful views - the perfect receipt.

A wonderful activity for our first day in Stockholm! We were lucky with the weather and enjoyed beautiful views of the city from a completely different perspective. Our guide shared lots of interesting facts and stories about Stockholm throughout the cruise, which made the experience even more enjoyable. And the lunch was absolutely phenomenal! Overall, a lovely experience and a great way to discover Stockholm. I would definitely recommend this cruise!

Dinner was good and gives you a reservation at a table for the full boat ride but you can go around the boat and come back. The guide Lisa was clear and easy to understand and she was funny too. They have blankets you can use if you get cold (this was a summer sunny day with some light wind).

The food was so tasty. I had the haddock. It was wonderful sailing out to Vaxholm and seeing all the tiny islands with their unusual style houses along the way.

A lovely morning on the water. The berth was easy to find, and the staff was very friendly. The trip was on a nice and very well-maintained vessel, and we were served a nice lunch. It tasted really good, and the girls who served it were skilled and professional. The live guide who talked about the history of the archipelago and Stockholm also did a good job. All in all, a really nice trip.

Great trip out into the archipelago. Guide provided us with a lot of information – with wit and charm. Thanks! The food was very delicious. Compliments to the kitchen! All the best going forward.

Wonderful. Very informative and lots of fun throughout. Would definitely recommend

The activity was amazing, our guide Alvin and driver Pioter were brilliant. Alvin made the trip entertaining and informative and was overall a great experience

It was such a great, unique experience, and the "stewardess" Sofia was so funny and entertaining! 🤣 Don‘t miss it!

Our guide, Sophia, and the captain, Pele, were excellent! They were the best part of the tour.

Emilie is the best tourguide ever. So good a presenter, really passionated and motivated. No less than fantastic and amazing👍😎👍

It was great, definitely recommend, especially for people visiting Stockholm, and the guides were very knowledgeable and you go all around the city. The transition from land to water is also great fun. Sofie and the captain were experienced, and Sofie was really funny and always got the energy up. Overall it was a great experience, a must if your visiting Sweden as a tourist!

best of land and water ! Emilie is a great guide, funny & knowledgeable

Absolutely brilliant activity made all the better for the guide who was humorous and knowledgeable. Great to see so many different things in such a short space of time. We really enjoyed the trip. Steps are steep to get into the vehicle but seats were relatively comfortable for the duration of the trip.

Well organised with our guide, Martin, being very informative around the route and very funny as well. The choice of Titanic on the sound system as we entered the water was hilarious. Overall, one of the best sightseeing trip we have done.

So much fun, loved the music, atmosphere and our guide Petra so knowledgeable. This was a fab experience on learning about the city on land and water.

Absolutely loved our amphibious bus tour! Mimi was wonderful - so energetic, entertaining and knowledgeable. Beautiful city and would absolutely recommend it to anyone! Thanks guys!

Very enjoyable and great commentary from our guide. Boarding was well organised and communication was excellent.

We had a lovely time on the boat trip. Pedro was an amazing guide to all the interesting places on the trip. He was very informative and genuinely lovely 👍🙂

Great way to see the Stockholm’s archipiélago, and great guides on board!. I would recomend this to anyone visiting Stockholm

We booked for 10:30 am and had a confirmation and there was not a cruise taking off, we had to wait until 1 pm. The cruise was nice blankets provided which we used and loved. They did the speaking in 5 languages which was strange. Speakers were pretty average. It was a pretty day so that was great.

This ride was very peaceful with great scenery and good commentary. There tour was just long enough to see enough of the waterways around Stockholm and get a taste of what the outskirts of the city look like.

This was a very nice boat tour. The host was very knowledgeable and also very fun. It was fun to hear the history of what we were seeing and to see all the lovely houses and cabins along the shore. It rained for part of our tour but did not affect our enjoyment of the trip.

"It was quite enjoyable. The guides provided interesting information of the areas and buildings that we saw along the way. Being bilingual I enjoyed comparing the English and French versions and they were quite similar. "

Good experience, enjoyed and boat is beautiful. Time is good enough for the tour.Will recommend our friends

Enjoyable cruise. Our tour guide, Tessa, was great. She shared lots of interesting information, speaks flawless English and has a good sense of humor. The 2 hr length was perfect afternoon break amidst other sight-seeing. The dock was easy to find and the boat was comfortable.

Such a fun and interesting tour. Highly recommend! Our tour guide Anton was awesome and captain Karl was fantastic.

Very relaxing and fun guide. Got to to see the highlights and learn some fun facts about Stockholm. You get to see a little beyond the city and a cool rock climbing wall.

It was a lovely trip on a traditional wooden boat, very comfortable. Some of the windows were rolled up to let the breeze in, each bench seat had a blanket if you got chilly. Our guide, Ian, was knowledgeable, engaging, and funny. Our captain was steady at the helm. It was a clear day and we could see everything he pointed out. It wasn't overwhelming with information. Definitely a pleasure!

The tour was so informative and very enjoyable. Heide was a great guide and brought a lot of joy to the tour. Our captain gave us a smooth ride, even with the waves that popped up! I would highly recommend this tour!

Jana and Karl led us on a wonderful tour, showcasing the beauty and history of Stockholm's archipelago. Jana brought a fun energy to her tour, which had plenty of interesting facts and amusing anecdotes. The boat was a bit crowded, but arriving early ensured our group could sit together.

Very good tour on lovely boat with excellent guide and skilled skipper. Very informative and entertaining.

Terrific, short tour (one hour 45 minutes). Guide was humorous and well-informed. Lovely wooden boat. Perfect for a quick tour of the area.

Nice relaxing cruise with good commentary and fun Captain. Amy (Guide) was fantastic. Would recommend to anyone visiting Stockholm.

Lovely coaching, safety, cooking, and senary also everything were smooth and planned perfectly and It was so friendly atmosphere

"Very well done tour and caring guide. It’s a nice day out, only 30 mins drive from Stockholm, but the day on the water paddling among the islands feels remote. Great tour company too "

Marcus was a brilliant guide. This was the best thing I did while in Stockholm. The day out kayaking was a lovely variety of sun and storm. We stopped by at a couple of islands. Marcus gave us great knowledge on the plant life as we walked around the islands. I was able to sample wild lingon berries, juniper berries, bilberries, chives, spruce sprouts, St. John’s wort, etc. The lunch we had was fantastic, and we all enjoyed a great conversation. By the end of the day, I think the entire group had a brilliant time. 11/10 would tour the area again. Marcus was the best! Next time, I come to Sweden, I’ll be booking a tour with these guys again.

While we loved being in the city, we wanted to venture out into the wilderness of Sweden and we did just that! Our guide Daniel was super knowledgeable and we enjoyed his humor! There was only one other person that did the tour besides my husband and I, so we did double kayaks and I’m so glad we did. It was nice to be in a small group for this trip. It was a windy, but beautiful day. The paddle was a bit of a challenge due to the wind, but the scenery and adventure was enjoyable and super worth the trip!!

Lucas was an amazing tour guide. Kayak instructions were great, he cooked lunch on he island over a fire, and his tour of the island was very interesting. Would definitely recommend.

What a fun way to see the archipelago! The scenes was stunning and the small group nature really enhanced the experience. Our guides Marcus and Jonathan were spectacular!! They were knowledgeable about kayaking and the natural environment we were seeing. I had so much fun chatting with Marcus about all things Sweden, and even science and smartwatches! This was a fun and truly memorable experience!!

Loved this! Great guide, fabulous scenery, and those wild boar sausages were to die for….amazing tour, we’ll be back!

Was a beautiful day to kayak, just a day to be on the water and outdoors. Loved being able to climb and play on a few of the islands. Not really much to learn and we like hearing more about the area. Hard to do on a kayak tour. We enjoyed the time and when we did get a chance to talk to our guide he was very kind. 4 stars we had a van that was kind of trashed, parking break issues, tires, ac did not work, windows sticky and dirty. For the price just expected a little better experience we have done many kayak/ outdoor tours this was a first of having to clean up everything. We did not mind helping just again for the cost it was lacking .

Amazing day kayaking around the most incredibly beautiful scenery. Hard work but we had the perfect day, sun was out, minimal wind. Our guide Andrew was perfect mix of instructive and relaxed. The whole day worked well. And our 12 year enjoyed it, even if I had to do most of the paddling.

This is the best thing I did while visiting Stockholm. It was an amazing experience and our guide, Marcus, was awesome. Really great guy that is highly knowledgeable about the archipelago and the plants and animals there. It is such a beautiful place. Really incredible day. I would highly recommend!

Wonderful tour with great hosts. Would highly recommemd but just consider that it is definitely a workout. Especially if it is a windy day the waves can be quite high. We did take double kayaks so that was a bit easier. Also the lunch was nice and fun to watch it be cooked over the campfire. Also it was not a full 8 hours of kayaking and a good amount of breaks in between.

Wow! What a beautiful day out in the archipelago. Being on the water was a very relaxing experience. Rostam is a great teacher and guide and is a fun guy to hang out with. Learning how to use a kayak was challenging and fun. The drive to and from Dalarö was scenic. We saw wildlife throughout the day. Thanks for the unforgettable experience!

A must to do when visiting Stockholm. Just outside the city, you'll have the opportunity to spend a few hours kayaking around the local archipelago less than hour outside of Stockholm. Our guide was super friendly and helpful throughout the tour. Even with the cloudy skies, the tour was still great soaking up the scenery. I had a single Kayak. No experience necessary - you do get a good workout. Others on the tour had a double Kayak. The fika stop/ break on one of the islands was a nice break to rest with light appetizer snack / drinks provided. Highly recommend the tour!

we had such an amazing day out on the water! samuel, our tour guide, was very knowledgeable about the area and was sure to tell us all about the history of the archipelago. he was also sure to make sure we were all able to keep up and enjoy the kayaking itself-our group had all levels of kayaking experience and noone was left behind or struggling at all. the fika was fantastic. we pulled up onto a little island and all set up a lovely little picnic and explored for about an hour. i can't recommend this tour highly enough-if i end up returning to vaxholm or stockholm i will absolutely be doing this tour again!

We had a wonderful time kayaking. Sam was a superb guide and planned a great route for us. He gave us kayaking tips, told us relevant geographical and historical information about the area, and pointed out interesting sights. Lunch on an island was a great break. Excellent way to get out of the city and get a different experience in Sweden. After the tour we used the sauna on site (additional cost and need to ask if it is available, but well worth it!) which helped ease the muscle aches.

This is a fun excursion outside of Stockholm! Fortunately, the weather was absolutely perfect. I, unfortunately, was feeling very unwell the day of the tour, but the guide was so kind and tried her best to make me as comfortable as possible. There are toilets onsite, but basically port-a-potties. I’m not sure if the description on Viator mentions an opportunity for sauna, but I was not prepared for this as everyone else on the tour was (they all came with swimsuits and towels), so I missed out on the sauna part. Also the pickup spot listed on Viator is incorrect. The kayaking itself was lovely!

This tour was such a highlight of my trip! Carl was an exceptional guide - professional, kind, and made the whole experience both safe and fun. The kayaking route was stunning, and sharing a Swedish fika on a quiet island was such a memorable touch. I felt both adventurous and at peace. A perfect balance of nature, culture, and connection.

If you are lucky with weather, September is a great time for kayaking. Less traffic on the archipelago and possibility for private tour. Couldn’t have wanted a better tour guide than Sam. Fika on the rocks was also nice.

Amazing time! Did the half-day kayak with Carl as our tour guide. Thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience! The small group was great- everyone very friendly. Really enjoyed the stories Carl shared about life in Sweden! Pick-up and drop-off in Stockholm was easy. Directions were clear. Fika lunch was delicious! If you’re looking for a fun, well organized kayak tour, this is it! Thank you for the lovely experience!

Very fun experience! Had a great day with Carl out on the water. Lunch was delicious too! Even learned a bit of history.

Kayaking through the Stockholm archipelago with Karl was an unforgettable experience! 🛶 His calm, confident guidance made everyone feel safe and at ease, no matter their skill level. Karl knew the best hidden spots, from quiet coves to breathtaking viewpoints, and shared fascinating insights about the nature, wildlife, and local culture along the way. The pace was perfect, the gear was top-notch, and the scenery was absolutely stunning. This tour was the highlight of our trip—thank you, Karl , for an incredible adventure!

It was well-planned and fun. Instructors were knowledgeable about where to go and how to handle weather conditions.

We had such a great time on the kayak outing. Our guide, Carl, was awesome - extremely knowledgeable and very chill. It helped that we had great weather, but we covered a lot of ground in a relaxing way and had a really great shore lunch with the group! I highly recommend this company.

Even on a rainy and gray day, our guide Adam managed to make us shine. The tour was great fun, wrapped up in a warm suit to protect us from the wind and weather, you get a wonderful impression of the land and water outside the center. The stop on the island of Grinda with lunch in the restaurant was magical. Highly recommended!

Adam was an absolutely wonderful tour guide, he truly made the entire experience for us!! He was super personable, informative, and seemed to really enjoy connecting with everyone on the boat. We had an incredible experience and highly recommend this adventure!!! It was definitely a highlight of my time in Stockholm.

Real action and relaxation in one. The guide was super friendly and explained a lot. Best trip in a long time. Perfect 👌

We saw so much of the beautiful archipelago and had lots of fun! The guide promptly fulfilled individual requests, provided interesting and entertaining explanations, and was incredibly friendly. We remember our speedboat ride with smiles on our faces! Highly recommended!

Adam was an excellent guide - attentive and thoughtful as well as knowledgeable and witty. An adventure to remember.

Adam is a very friendly guide who created a relaxed atmosphere and told us lots of interesting stories about the archipelago. The visit to Grinda was magical, with an enchanting restaurant serving delicious meatballs. The walk through the mystical troll forest was a lovely way to round off the trip before we took the boat back to Stockholm. The trip definitely benefited from the fact that it wasn't too crowded in May.

Excellent time with teens to visit more of the archipelago, including more remote places. Thanks to Martin for his explanations. We loved it !

What an awesome experience! I'd totally recommend this tour to anyone! Our guide Adam was great and it was the right mix of action and quieter sections. Grinda Island is beautiful.

Sam was calm and collected throughout the entire tour—you feel like you’re in a zen meditation from start to finish. The sea was stunning under the snow, and we slept incredibly well afterward. We loved the sauna, and there’s even a cold plunge if you’re feeling brave. The 670 bus drops you off right at the location.

This crew was fantastic and the experience was the best. They transported us to/from the pickup, fed us a delicious fika snack (after the ice kayaking), provided access to a much-needed sauna, and provided an in-depth history of the archipelago around Sweden. Our guide was fun to be around and created a low-stress environment where everyone had fun (no matter their kayaking proficiency). The cold-weather gear they provided was more than enough to keep us warm (we're from Texas, so not used to the cold!). Definitely recommend this company!

Everything was awesome, the area is beautiful and the employees are super friendly. Don't miss out on the sauna

We had such a memorable experience on this kayak tour earlier this month. Our small group had a mix of experience levels, but Karl, our guide, made everyone feel comfortable and confident from the start. His knowledge of the region was incredible, and the scenery was absolutely stunning. We especially loved the Fika break; it was such a cozy touch. Since it was getting chilly, we wore dry suits, which made it possible to hop into the sea after kayaking. What a wild experience! Finishing the day with the sauna and a plunge into the Baltic Sea was the perfect, refreshing ending. Highly recommend this tour. It was truly unforgettable.

Awesome experience and first time kayaking in a dry suit. From the equipment to kayaking in general for the beginners, everything was explained very well with safety in mind. It was great to get out of Stockholm, on the water, warm up in the sauna, and enjoy the Fika!

My husband and I had an incredibly fun morning kayaking, followed by delicious fika and a hot sauna. Jules was a very knowledgeable and entertaining guide. We were both first timers, but felt very well looked after and quickly got the hang of kayaking. Would 100% recommend and love to return some day.

Great adventure, stunning scenery and enthusiastic guide. I was impressed with the quality of all aspects of the ice kayaking tour today. Our guide was Jules and he catered to both the English speaking and French speaking customers. Despite the freezing icey waters we all managed to stay warm and were rewarded with steaming hot tea and fikka when we returned from our 6km round trip to Vaxholm fortress. Would highly recommend this tour to other able bodied and brave souls 😊😊

Great experience, our driver and kayak guide were helpful and timely, got us to and from all our destinations safely, answered our questions well, and were generally great people to be around. The kayaking was beautiful and went through some very pretty channels, and the sauna + jump into the Baltic experience at the end was unforgettable. I would note that the snacks might not be enough if you get hungry, so best to eat a big breakfast.

I have no words to express what an amazing experience we had. Rohan was a fantastic & patient tour guide. The tour was well worth it and the FIKA was great too. We had a wonderful day and highly recommend it. The whole experience was worth it and our friendly and pleasant tour driver was excellent too. We would do this all over again.

This could not have been any more of a perfect day. Our guide, Sam, was so knowledgeable and calming that our group would have kayaked to the arctic following him. The entire experience was safe, fun and breathtaking. Do not miss plunging yourself into the Baltic Sea once the kayaking is over and really enjoy the sauna!

I had such a great time with our guide, Sam, who was personable and clearly enjoys what he does. There's extra warm gear there, but I suggest you bring a hat and a towel for the sauna. Be brave - jumping into the cold Baltic feels amazing after being in the sauna! There is a bus stop right in front of the place, and I had a lot of fun taking the ferry back to Stockholm.

We had a fantastic time on our tour. The water was pretty icy, but they were able to make a path for us through the ice so we could still go out and have a fun and unique experience. Our guide, Sam, was extremely helpful and knowledgeable through it all. Fika and the sauna were lovely ways to close out the day. We loved our experience!!
