Inspiration for your own tailor-made trip
Stockholm
100% customisable for you
This afternoon, you’ll board your two-and-a-half-hour flight to the Swedish capital. When you arrive, head straight to your accommodation in the city centre, which is just a short walk from some of the city’s most impressive buildings and monuments. You’ll have some time to relax and refresh at your hotel before heading out for your first evening in Stockholm. Tonight, you have a table booked at Fasching, a renowned jazz club that’s been an iconic venue since the 1970s.
Today, you’ll explore Stockholm in the company of a private local guide. Because they know the city like the back of their hand, they can come up with a tailor-made itinerary that’s built around your wishes and desires, whether that involves visiting the Swedish History Museum or strolling through the colourful old town, or both. Wander through charming neighbourhoods, visit beautiful green spaces, and take advantage of your guide’s knowledge by getting some gourmet tips for the rest of your trip. Speaking of food, this evening is an opportunity to experience Stockholm through your tastebuds. We’ll reserve you a table at an excellent restaurant that showcases Nordic flavours and the forward-thinking cuisine that’s given Sweden it's foodie reputation.
You’ll have the whole day today to explore Stockholm at your leisure, and there’s a lot to see. If you didn’t visit the beautiful Royal Palace (Kunglinga Slottet) during your private tour, now is your chance. The changing of the guard takes place here every day between the end of April and August. Nearby, the German Church – whose spire marks the highest point in Gamla Stan (the old town) – is also worth a visit. If it’s museums you’re after, Stockholm is full of them, including the National Museum, the ABBA Museum and the Vasa Museum, home to the world’s only preserved 17th-century ship. We can also arrange for you to take a private tour of the city’s metro to take in some of its fabulous art, which is spread across more than 90 stations.
While Stockholm is undoubtedly full of culture and history, there are also plenty of things to do here that will allow you to appreciate the city in a different way. Go to a fik (café or pastry shop) to enjoy a cup of coffee and a pastry; grab some lunch at Östermalms Saluhall, an antique market hall selling food and fresh produce; and dance the night away in one of Stureplan’s many bars. If the weather is on your side, sail into the archipelago to explore the Feather Islands, not far from downtown Stockholm. If you need any other recommendations while you’re here on the best restaurants, activities or sights, don’t hesitate to ask our knowledgeable local Concierge.
You’ll have some time today to squeeze in some final sightseeing and indulge in one last flaky pastry before heading to the airport for your afternoon or evening flight back to the UK.
