Day 10: Stockholm
Monday, July 7, 2025
Today meet with a local guide for a panoramic city tour. Stockholm boasts a blend of historic and modern architecture with striking contemporary buildings such as the Ericsson Globe Arena, Kaknäs Tower and the colorful waterfront houses of Södermalm.
Stop for an inside visit to City Hall known for its distinctive brick façade and towering spire. The Nobel Prize banquet is held here each year. Walk up the tower for remarkable 360º views.
Continue to the Vasa Museum—an iconic compilation of exhibits that offer a fascinating glimpse into Sweden's maritime history. The centerpiece of the museum is the Vasa itself, a majestic warship that was intended to be the pride of the Swedish Navy. The ship is remarkably well-preserved, with over 95% of its original structure intact including intricate wooden carvings and ornate decorations.
Conclude the day's touring at Östermalms Food Hall for lunch on your own followed by free time to explore independently. Perhaps stroll the narrow cobblestone streets of Old Town, visit Djurgården—a lush island oasis that's home to the ABBA Museum and Gröna Lund amusement park or wander through Strandvägen—a picturesque boulevard lined with elegant buildings, trendy boutiques and waterfront cafés.
