Overview

Travel from historic Gamla Stan to the Södermalm waterfront on a small-group experience combining Stockholm sightseeing, panoramic city views and authentic Swedish sauna culture. Along the way, enjoy stunning views over Stockholm from the Gondolen viewing platform as your local guide shares insights into the city’s history, its relationship with water, and Swedish sauna and bathing traditions. The experience then continues to a 90-minute sauna session with optional outdoor swimming. With a maximum of eight guests, it offers a more personal way to discover the city and experience a local tradition that many visitors would find difficult to access on their own. Ideal for curious travelers, wellness lovers, and adventure-minded visitors looking for something different from a conventional Stockholm sightseeing tour.
