75-minute winter guided boat tour from Strömkajen, circling Fjäderholmarna on an icebreaking vessel with warm blankets and snacks.
“Seeing Stockholm from the water offers a unique perspective. We sat on top for the best views. Although it was cold, the reindeer hide bench covers and provided blankets helped. It was informative and good value for the money spent.”
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!”
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!”

Snowshoe winter hike from Stockholm with small group gear training, possible frozen lake crossing, and campfire lunch, transport included.
“It’s one of those once in a life time experiences. I really enjoyed the hike, despite being tired. We also walked on two lakes, which was very scary but our guide managed to help all of us and even take pictures and videos while we do so. The soup we had was very delicious as well!”
Winter dry-suit kayaking in central Stockholm for about 3 hours, with a guide in English, city views, and all gear provided.
“This trip was so much fun and the sauna was a definite must. It was a great way to start the New Year out right and a great workout too! My friends and I had a blast, I definitely recommend it to anyone in the area looking for an alternative way to see Stockholm (:”
