Stockholm in One Day Sightseeing Tour
Stockholm, Sweden
See Stockholm in a nutshell on this two-part sightseeing tour by bus and boat, ideal for those with limited time in Sweden's capital. Starting with a comfortable 1.5-hour coach ride, get a comprehensive overview of the city's top attractions including the Royal Palace, City Hall, the Vasa Museum and the Royal Djurgården. Then hop in a canal boat for a cruise around Stockholm's picturesque island archipelago, ending with an unbeatable view of the city skyline.
Board a coach outside the Royal Opera House to begin the first portion of your Stockholm sightseeing tour. On your 1.5-hour coach ride, see the Swedish capital's best-known attractions, including the Royal Palace, City Hall, the Vasa Museum and the Royal Djurgården. Learn about Stockholm's sights and history along the way from your onboard guide. You may also make a stop at Fjällgatan for a nice view of Stockholm’s islands.
Transfer to a boat and cruise around Djurgården and other islands scattered through Stockholm's picturesque archipelago. Along this peaceful canal, you'll pass several historical buildings, museums and green areas, which you can learn about from your personal audio guide. Your boat is equipped with Wi-Fi and crayons and paper for kids, plus you can purchase snacks and drinks to enjoy while taking in the sights.
On the way back, a fabulous view of Stockholm's skyline opens up — a beautiful panorama that can only be seen from the water. Your cruise concludes at Strömkajen, just outside the Grand Hôtel Stockholm.
I took this tour by myself, it is pretty easy tour to see the whole city of Stockholm in one day . I booked both the bus tour and the boat tour, I like the boat tour better because you have the opportunity to see the whole entire archipelago. I would recommend this to anyone. There is a waiting period about 30 minutes from the bus tour to the boat tour. When in the bus, be sure to sit upstairs for a better view of the city.

It has a good mixture of land and river components. You get to see the big landmarks and must see places with bus and scenic view from the river.

Well, for starters, the designated meeting place was an expensive cab ride from our ship. The stop and go bus would have taken too long to get to this point. We were disappointed that Viator did not give more specific instructions as to how far we would have to go to get there. So the four of us lost over 200 that day.

Great tour
Review by: John D, July 2017
A great way to get an overall feel for Stockholm from both a land and water perspective.
Review by: mrskarensthompson, July 2017
The bus tour was comprehensive and the taped narrative -- given in a very proper English accent -- was very informative. It was kind of amazing how the tape stopped until the bus was in the right place -- after being caught up in traffic -- to continue The ear phones were just right. The canal tour was also good the narrator was the same English guy, and some of the narrative repeated the bus script, but that was OK.

The bus trip around Stockholm was thorough and shared destinations to return to on our own at a later time, such as Skansen Park. The tour did not have a human guide. Instead, we were given an earpiece and listened to a pre-recorded description, which wasn't well synchronized. Very dIsappointing.

Nice way to see the city. Recordings help explain the locations.

Really enjoyed the tour.
Review by: William H, May 2017
Very nice tour if you don't have much time in the city.
Review by: Ivy F, February 2017
The tour we booked supposed to include a cruise ship. When we got there, we were informed that only bus tour was available. They did refund some of the money.

Good tour but not enough time
Review by: cbar4694, October 2016
Jorgen is a terrific guide. His knowledge is broad and he can convey it simply. The trip was extremely interesting and the drive was very comfortable. The pace of the tour was just right and we would recommend this to others to gain an insight into similar places.

Extremely poor value.
Review by: eep, September 2016
The one really great thing about this tour is the boat tour to see the various island of stockholm. Other then that it is a typical stromma tour not great, but not bad.
Review by: CHARLES S, September 2016
because of an aircraft issue my trip was delayed one day...but my voucher was still honored outstanding customer service
Review by: John W, September 2016
Not a successful tour - no pick up at port and a long walk from ship to bus - no stops at key locations so better to use hop on hop off bus which picks up at ship side and allows you to visit key locations.
Review by: James F, September 2016
Instructions how to find the right Pier 3 booth not good. Tour guide on boat good as was what we saw.
Review by: vohen85, September 2016
Very nice tour. Learn a lot about Stockholm on this tour.
Review by: Steve V, August 2016
You received good information and saw a bit of Stockholm main places, unfortunate it was just sitting and receiving the information over headphones. As the bus or ship just drive a predeterminated track._br/_ For the price itself the duration were much too short, bus drive around 01H30 and the boat trip 50 min.
Review by: andrea.ali88, August 2016
The tour was very informative, well planned and fun! A very good introduction to the city
Review by: Michael H, August 2016
The bus portion of the tour was good but we had one untoward incident. My wife was told it was ok to put the ear phones over her hearing aids. This resulted in the loss on one hearing aid. The company that ran the tour, not Viator, was unable to find it on the bus.
Review by: Ann W, August 2016
Another really good tour. Very well done.
Review by: James L, July 2016
No photo stops. At times the recorded information was not in sink with what you were seeing. Probably would have done better on a private tour. Same with the boat ride.
Review by: Janet B, July 2016
The combination of bus and boat gave us different perspectives. It was very enjoyable.
Review by: David W, July 2016
Enjoyed the Hop on Hop off tour along with the river cruise.
Review by: m.salman, July 2016
It is an audio guided tour with nothing more than the hop-on hop-off. For the same amount of money buy a Stockholm pass in which both of the hop-on hop-off and the royal canal tour are included with many more things to do. One note a side, don't expect that you can take good pictures while you are on the go!!
Review by: Jenni S, July 2016
This tour was a great start to my trip to Stockholm. I would suggest using the exact same name as the tour company - and #34;Stockholm in a Nutshell and #34; caused confusion at the dock. Travelers should not expect great photos from the bus - use the hop on/off instead for that.
Review by: Anila A, June 2016
Just about OK. PANORAMA bus with headphones and no guide. Didn and #39;t get off anywhere just at the end. Not what I had expected
Review by: John M, June 2016
Liked the water tour a bit better than the bus tour, but that partly relates to mobility challenges stopping us from going on top of the double decker. Great way to get oriented to Stockholm.
Review by: liu_p, June 2016
Took a taxi to Ralph Aldolf Torf for the tour bus. Cost of taxi was 250 Swedish Krona. The bus tour was good but taking a Hop-On Hop-Off bus from the Cruise Terminal was a better deal.
Review by: Kathy P, June 2016
Fun way to see Stockholm. Helped us know where we wanted to go and see more if the sites that we drive by. Staff was very friendly and helpful to explain where things were.
Review by: Munhan Y, June 2016
Efficient bus and boat combination tour that provided a good overview of the city. We missed the tour on the day we bought due to airline issues, but the local guide were understanding and allowed us to take a spot on the next day's version.
Review by: hryon, June 2016
This was an excellent overview of the city and gave us an idea of where we should go and what we should see while we were there.
Review by: Maureen B, June 2016
This was very good. The tour not only gave you a realxing , informative discription of all things Stockhom, but the boat tour part gave you an idea how to move around to see things, making a HOHO boat excursion the way to move. The ground transportation would have been more difficult for us.
Review by: Amanda W, June 2016
Good way to see Stockholm by bus and water. Saw all the major sites and the headset gave us a good understanding of what the buildings were. Shame we couldn't go through the canal as the water was too low.
Review by: Amanda W, June 2016
Good general tour of Stockholm via road and water. Able to see all the well known sites and learn a bit about them. Shame we couldn't go through the canal bit of the boat trip as the water was too low.
Review by: Chinghui T, June 2016
Very nice tour guide and driver. Service is beyond our expectation.
Review by: Krisha Nabila T, June 2016
Love it!
Review by: Tommy L, May 2016
Excellent tour and a great way to see all of Stockholm in such a short time. Particularly enjoyed the boat tour- would highly recommend.
Review by: Atika M, September 2015
Very rude bus driver who was refusing to take passengers onboard. He did his best to shoo us away and then asked why had we turned up yet again!! He had to finally take us around because a few more tourists joined -though he did it very grudgingly. Ruined our holiday experience-tourists are better off taking separate boat and bus sightseeing tours.
Review by: Elfriede M, September 2015
The tour was very well organized and was very interesting
Review by: KG N, September 2015
This was a wonderful way of getting a quick sense of the city. The boat was good, so was the commentary and the audio sets.
Review by: richard g, September 2015
Confusion about meeting point! Boat trip in poor weather with fogged up windows, limited views, etc----very crowded boat as well----
