Sweden Travel Guide Stockholm Metro Art

Sweden

Sweden is an incredible country in Scandinavia with an archipelago of coastal islands, lakes, forests and mountains. The capital of Stockholm is a delight with royal palaces, colourful metro stations, Viking bars and museums but don’t discount other cities such as Malmo and Gothenburg. Plus, you can visit Lapland for Santa and the Northern Lights! Let’s plan your next magical adventure to Sweden.

When is the best time to visit?

Between April and October to avoid the bitter Baltic Sea cold. However, the off season means less cruise ships and crowds. Plus, Christmas means Santa and Lapland!

Things to know before visiting Sweden

  1. If you’re from Europe, you do not need a visa to travel to Sweden for up to 90 days.
  2. Don’t just visit the capital city of Stockholm. I would recommend heading out to other places like Gothenburg, Kiruna or Malmo.
  3. Sweden is a very safe country to visit with a low crime rate.
  4. I recommend taking a ferry to Drottningholm Palace by paddle boat from Stockholm. It’s an incredible day trip, and you’ll feel like royalty. It’s known as ‘Sweden’s Versailles’.
  5. Buy a Stockholm Pass to save lots of money on attractions!
