Description:

Set sail from central Stockholm and cruise the idyllic archipelago away from the bustling city center. As you glide by the greener part of the city, sit back, take a break, and take in scenic views of leafy Djurgården, the renowned Vasa Museum, picturesque Södermalm, and vibrant Slussen.

As you navigate the charming waterways, leave the city's noise behind. Cruise by postcard-perfect islands of the Stockholm archipelago, made of approximately 24,000 islets spreading into the sweeping expanse of the Baltic Sea, and admire the outstanding beauty of the landscape from large windows or the open deck if the weather permits.

Historical Djurgården canal is lined with lush parklands dotted with charming old buildings and the island of the same name is popular with locals. See delightful wooden vacation homes on Fjäderholmarna—abuzz with visitors in the summer—and admire Waldemarsudde, the elegant waterside mansion and former home of Prince Eugen, a member of the royal family and an acclaimed painter.

On your return to the city center, pass the imposing Vasa Museum, home to an outstanding maritime collection including a 64-gun warship. Marvel at the breathtaking panorama of grand buildings as you glide by Södermalm before seeing the leafy riverbanks of trendy Slussen and the gloriously colorful façade of Old Town.
