★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 817 reviews · 3 - 6 hours · from $138Our pick

Winter kayaking in Stockholm’s archipelago with dry suits, Swedish fika, and wood-burning sauna, plus optional polar plunge.

“We absolutely loved the whole experience. Rowan and Jules were amazing guides, they were so knowledgeable and made you feel at ease but were also really relaxed and kept it fun. They even brought out a cake and candles for my boyfriend’s birthday when having the fika which was so lovely and absolutely made his day! It all ran really smoothly, the kayaking was an amazing experience but it’s also so worth doing the sauna too to be able to have a swim and warm up. Would definitely recommend!”

6.Winter Kayaking, Swedish Fika and hot Sauna Experience

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 156 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $160

Stockholm winter kayaking through icy archipelago, then Swedish fika and a hot sauna, with dry suits and guided safety in 3 hours.

“Great time out on the water with a leisurely paddle around the area. The water was iced over in places so it was fun to "ice break" through with your kayak. You get fully suited up in dry gear which was comfortable and 100% dry. A little fika break was nice. Then once you put away your kayak, you can get naked with your group for the cold plunge and sauna. Not as scary as it sounds. The cold part. Europeans love getting naked so that was just fun. Make a friend or two, go for it!”

“Ben, our tour guide, made this tour such an amazing experience! His love and knowledge of the outdoors was very refreshing. We had about 7 people on our tour and Ben did a great job of keeping everyone together and engaged. After a quick but thorough brief on how to operate the kayaks we got in the water and paddled around for a bit until everyone was feeling comfortable. We then kayaked for around 30 minutes where we reached our first stop with a beautiful view of the neighboring islands. We had warm fruit juice and pastries which were both delicious and really hit the spot. Afterwards we kayaked for…”
