Taking a boat tour to the Archipelago Islands while visiting Stockholm is a MUST DO in my opinion…read more The islands are magnificent and vary in size from uninhabited small islands to larger islands with several homes. We took the Stromma Tour and it was the highlight of our trip

Visited here to authentic experience of small Sweden town. Charming little area but quite touristy…read more Lined with boutique shops for everything from souvenirs to food. People: Shopkeepers and local were all very welcoming/friendly towards visitors. Willing to take pictures and help with directions. Transportation: Accessible by land and bus. Ferry goes to Stockholm and small boat goes to nearby fortress (Vaxholm Fortress). Buses for Stockholm leave every 15 minutes. Bus and car friendly. Could bike around town but elevation changes would mean difficult bike ride. Farmer's Market: Sells fresh, quality produce but is cash only. Strawberries are the best I've ever had. Bottom Line: Quaint town worth visiting as day trip from Stockholm.

The building itself is astonishing and full of big windows and design. Follow the woodsy trail down the peninsula around the lakes and explore the museum's hidden sculptures and of course the Golden Solar Egg! The restaurant is superb and so is cafe! Chef Anne brings her world famous semlas to life. Stunning place!

Do yourself a favor and make reservations on a boat that will take you from Stockholm directly to the pier by the center, or take an inexpensive bus from T-Centralen, but don't try the bus -- you'll be waiting forever in Gustavsberg. Then have lunch in the restaurant, or just some fika in the cafe.

Our first experience island hopping and we came across this lovely restaurant. It's 2mins from where the boat drops you off and you can sit outside in such comfy chairs, lounge and soak up the sun and sights. I havn't been this chilled out in a long time! My food was so tasty, fresh and filling! We shared a bottle of wine recommended by the staff which was delicious. Also! They allow pets and to my pleasure I got to sit beside and meet a lovely Doggy! Day made! :-) Only 75kr from Stockholm city to the boat here! Amazing :-)
