Wasn’t suuure what to expect but this canal tour ended up being a highlight of my weekend in Stockholm. Weather was a bit nippy (bring a jacket, seriously) but sitting up top with the wind and those city views was SO worth it. The audio guide is kinda cheesy but I learned a lot (who knew about the lion statues??). Went with my partner and we both agreed the snacks on board were pricey but decent. Not too crowded on a Monday morning. Def worth it if you wanna chill and see a lot without walking miles.

Did the bridges tour with my sister. Nice route, especially the bit through the canal with all the ducks (sooo cute). Guide sometimes hard to hear over the engine but otherwise informative. Loved seeing all the little islands. Bit cold on deck but blankets available if you ask. Would recommend booking early for best seats.

Took my parents (they’re picky travelers) and even they loved it! The boat was really clean, staff smiled a lot which is always nice. Audio in English worked well. We had some rain but there’s a covered bit so no worries. The city looks AMAZING from the water, especially all the green. Bring a camera. Would go again.
