Overview

Stockholm is a city built on islands and waterways, offering a unique perspective from the water. This open electric boat tour lasts about 50 minutes and features a live guide who shares information about the city's landmarks. The boats are fully electric, producing no loud noise or unpleasant smells, allowing a quieter and more comfortable ride. Smaller boats provide a close-up view of key sites. The route passes by the Royal Palace, one of Europe's largest palaces, then crosses under a bridge to the Riksdag, Sweden's Parliamentary building, accessible only to small boats. The guide points out the Royal Swedish Opera and discusses its history and current events. The tour continues past the National Museum, known for its extensive art and design collections, and the Nordiska Museet, a castle-like building dedicated to Swedish cultural history. Next, the boat moves along the Royal Dramatic Theater, noted for its Art Nouveau style, and enters the Royal Djurgården Canal, a quiet green area with views of historic embassy villas. The tour cruises through the Östermalm district, known for its grand architecture and boutiques, before passing the island of Skeppsholmen with parks and modern art museums. It goes close to the Gröna Lund amusement park and the small island of Kastellholmen with its fortress, Kastellet. The final stops offer views of Stockholm’s Old Town (Gamla Stan) with historical commentary, and the Vasa Museum, home to the famous Vasa ship. The tour includes a guide and captain but no additional inclusions. There are no exclusions listed.
