Multi-day Tours and Trips from Stockholm

The metropolis of Stockholm has plenty to keep any visitor occupied for the duration of their vacation. However, if you wish to explore more of Sweden than its capital city, why not opt for a multi-day trip from Stockholm?

Whether you’re an outdoor enthusiast, an avid city hopper or somewhere in between, you’ll find plenty of different excursions to quell your longing for adventure. From challenging survival courses to gentle paddling trips, there’s something to suit everyone.

2-Day trips

With just 48 hours to spare, you can participate in a range of tours from Stockholm. Those who have a weakness for the “Great Outdoors” have a myriad of options, the most popular of which is a multi-day kayak tour. Ideal for both beginners and experts alike, these excursions guide you through the Stockholm archipelago, discovering the uninhabited isles off the tourist trail.

If paddling isn’t your thing, you can participate in a survival course and learn several of the most important life skills that have been lost over the last couple of generations. You’ll discover how to light fires, build shelter and forage for food all in the enchanting setting of a dense forest, alongside other basics for life outdoors, including fishing, and wildlife tracking.

If you wish to explore further afield on a 2-day trip from Stockholm, you can travel to Helsinki — Finland’s capital — fondly nicknamed the “White City” because of its granite architecture. You’ll journey on a luxurious cruise ship and can spend your time in the city exploring its multitude of religious monuments or dining on local cuisine, such as pickled herring or pea soup. Alternatively, hop on a cruise and cross the Baltic Sea to reach Tallinn, best known for its UNESCO-listed medieval Old Town.

3-Day trips

By booking a 3-day trip from Stockholm, you’ll be able to extend your adventure. Become a kayaking connoisseur by spending 3 days on the water — whether that’s with or without a guide. Those who are new to the water sport or enjoy the guidance of an expert may choose a traditional style kayaking tour, during which you’ll be led to a multitude of islands and informed of intriguing facts about this corner of Sweden. Alternatively, if you prefer a more rugged adventure, you can choose a self-guided kayaking excursion and make your own way through the archipelago, selecting your favorite spot to camp, and enjoying the blissful tranquility that comes with discovering the ocean alone.

Those wishing to visit Helsinki will benefit from a return trip if they select a 3-day excursion, making for a more seamless vacation. All of the transportation details will be arranged for you in advance, and you’ll be able to enjoy the city at your leisure with plenty of free time to visit its imposing cathedral, wander through Esplanade Park or simply engage in a spot of people-watching from one of the capital’s many trendy cafes.

4-Day trips

Those who prefer to take things at a slower pace should consider a 4-day tour from Stockholm. While the excursions on offer are similar to those that last 2 or 3 days, these tours enable you to gain a better insight into this captivating Nordic country and enhance your skills in a range of activities. You’ll see considerable results from participating in a 4-day survival course during which you’ll have more opportunities to brush up on your skills, from learning the differences between edible and toxic plants to navigating your way through the lush greenery that surrounds you.

Or, opt for a hiking tour through the wilderness, strengthening your core and discovering the lofty canyons of the UNESCO-listed High Coast, which covers more than 140,000 hectares along the North Eastern corner of Sweden. Alternatively, stay in the city for the duration of your trip and explore its many delights with a guide who is keen to show you the local hangouts, from culinary experiences to fascinating museums.
