One of the best ways to explore the many islands that make up Stockholm, “Venice of the North”, is by bicycle. We will not miss famous sights such as the City Hall and the Royal Palace. However, the main reason to use our bicycles to tour Stockholm is to be able to explore some of the city’s beautiful hidden jewels.

"The guide explained very well and took a lot of time for every question.
It is exellent to discover a city by bike, much easier than by bus or foot".
"I can recommend it".
Matthias Lefarth, Germany

Great way to explore the town

Sightseeing by bike one can move quickly and easily between Stockholm’s many islands, which each possess their own character. We follow the shores of the sea and the lake, pedal over bridges and pass all the major sights, such as the City Hall, the Royal Palace and the Royal Dramatic Theatre. The tour will also get you off beaten tourist tracks to see beautiful gardens, picturesque wooden houses from the 17th Century and old oak trees in the world’s first National City Park.

Guided by experts

Our expert guides talk about the city both past and present, showing you beautiful places that are not accessible by bus or boat. Stockholm is a well-planned and safe cycling city with many bicycle ways and green stretches where cars are not allowed. Guided in English.
