Stockholm
Called 'Beauty on Water' and it’s no wonder – Stockholm is a stunning and vibrant city with so much to explore!
Sweden by ferry – the way to go!
From its stunning natural beauty to the buzz and bustle of its cosmopolitan cities, Sweden is a country rich in nature, culture, lifestyle and food and is one of the best countries to visit at any time of year.
Our ferries to Sweden from Germany, Denmark, Poland and Latvia are the easiest and most direct way to start your Swedish adventure. Taking the car when you travel to Sweden is a great choice, allowing you to not only explore the cities but to get out and about so you can appreciate the nature and the wilds. Whether you want to spend a night in an ice hotel, take in the spectacular Northern Lights, enjoy great seafood in Gothenburg, sing your heart out to ABBA in Stockholm, take a sauna in the golden Solar Egg, go skiing in Åre or take in the beauty of Småland and beyond, a trip to Sweden will leave you wanting to come back for more.
Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmö, Sweden's three major cosmopolitan areas have a wealth of things to see and do with many museums, art galleries, markets and eateries to experience. Stockholm, the metropolitan capital of Sweden with its beautiful architecture, world class cultural highlights and vibrant culinary scene is a must-see for any visitor. Gothenburg is situated in a sheltered bay on the Swedish west coast and has a rich maritime history. It's known for its Dutch-style canals, leafy boulevards and narrow pedestrian streets lined with many cafes and shops. Sweden’s third biggest city, the vibrant Malmö is located in the south of Sweden and this innovative city brings you everything from history to modern dining experiences and an exciting night life.
Sweden is a year-round destination and every season has something different to offer. From summer and the long days that allow you time to discover Sweden’s vast wilderness, crystal-clear lakes and rolling hills to winter where the country comes alive with winter sports, from alpine and cross-country skiing to snow-shoeing and snow-mobile rides and so much more.
Sweden – it’s irresistible!
