Tours in Stockholm

Walking Tours
Summer walking tours are offered by City Sightseeing (tel: (08) 5871 4020; website: www.citysightseeing.com). The ‘Old Town Walkabout' (a guided stroll through the medieval core of the city) lasts 60 minutes, departing from Gustav Adolfs Torg twice a day at 1130 and 1330 (late Jun-late Aug).

Bus Tours
City Sightseeing (tel: (08) 5871 4020; website: www.citysightseeing.com) offers a variety of bus tours departing from in front of the Royal Opera House. The ‘Stockholm in a Nutshell' tour (combining a 90-minute bus tour around the city centre and a one-hour boat cruise to Djurgården) is one of the most popular.

Boat Tours
A waterborne tour is as essential for visitors to Stockholm as it is for visitors to Venice. The Stockholm Card gives free boat tours on certain services during the summer. Strömma Canal Company (tel: (08) 5871 4000; website: www.strommakanalbolaget.com) and Stockholm Sightseeing (tel: (08) 5871 4020; website: www.stockholmsightseeing.com) both run various boat tours of the city, with departure points from quays near the Royal Dramatic Theatre, the Grand Hôtel and City Hall. Boat tours of the major waterside sights take approximately two hours. Several one-hour boat tours are also offered.
