Beschreibung

Enjoy a wonderfully scenic cruise through the city center of Stockholm, a patchwork of 14 islands connected by dozens of bridges. While taking in the views, you will hear commentary describing the landmarks along the shore and the glassy waterways between the islands, which in areas have gotten larger through land reclamation. The exact route will depend on the day and water traffic, but regardless of where you cruise, the sights will be spectacular. Chances are, you will cruise past Djurgården, an island oasis that was once the royal family’s hunting grounds. It also has the distinction of being the world’s first national urban park. Water accounts for more than a third of Stockholm’s area, with another third comprised of parks and woodlands, so you can expect to see plenty of greenspaces in this environmentally friendly capital city. Along the way, sweet cinnamon buns and a hot beverage will be served.
