What people are saying about Stockholm

Es war ein unvergesslicher Tag. Alles war sehr gut organisiert und die Gastfreundlichkeit war Top! Am Ende konnte man in das eiskalte Wasser springen und dann direkt in der Sauna entspannen. Jeder sollte das mal erleben. Es war sehr schön.

Love this! Glad we took the activity although I hope there’s more time in Sweden. The onboard activities were fantastic. Point of concern only is the room / bed cleanliness. There were nuts under the bed cover!!

It was a very informative and funny tour. If you are new in the city and want to know what is all the areas and a little bit history and culture information you should take this tour…
