★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 184 reviews · 2 hours · from $37

Cruise Stockholm’s inner archipelago aboard historic M/S Vindhem, with live guiding, panoramic views, cozy seating, and Swedish fika.

“We enjoyed a two hour private tour with great atmosphere on the beautiful historical wooden boat from 1938 and the very friendly and kind guide Aziz. The two hour tour does not give possibility to visit Vaxholm, it provides a great overview and a lovely boat tour. Only the description of the tour is a bit misleading and the boat not easy to find as it is not a big tour company which is part of the atmosphere.”
