1 Best Sight in Side Trips from Stockholm, Sweden

If you'd prefer to stay on board a boat and simply cruise around the islands, seek out the Blidösund. A coal-fired steamboat built in 1911 that has remained in almost continuous service, the Blidösund is now run by a small group of enthusiasts who take parties of around 250 on evening music-and-dinner cruises. The cruises depart from a berth close to the Royal Palace in Stockholm.
