Guided Kayak Tour in Central Stockholm
Overview
Experience Stockholm in a unique way from the water. This guided kayak tour is perfect for both beginners and experienced paddlers.
You can choose between our standard 3-hour city center route or a shorter 2-hour morning paddle that takes place on the outskirts of the city. Whichever option you pick, it is a relaxed and scenic way to see some of Stockholm’s most beautiful areas.
Depending on the route and conditions, we paddle around places like Långholmen, Södermalm, Kungsholmen, Gamla Stan, or Lilla Essingen. You will pass under charming bridges, through calm canals, and past colorful buildings, while your guide shares stories and insights (weather permitting).
It is a fun and active alternative to a walking tour and a great way to spend time outdoors. Come solo or bring friends and family for a great time on the water.
We use stable tandem kayaks by default, which are ideal for beginners. If you have paddling experience, you are welcome to request a single kayak when booking.
