Beyond Retro Zinken

Pack a ton into a long weekend in Stockholm, Sweden with this ambitious itinerary. Of the 5 days, the arrival and departure days are slow-paced; the 3 days in the middle are based on days starting at 9 AM, getting in 20k+ steps/day*, and ending around 11 PM/midnight. *This itinerary also relies on 2-wheel transport. We used scooters, but bikes are available, too. This itinerary follows a logical and efficient order for each day, and covers the following: - 5 Museums: Fotografiska, Vasa, Skansen, ABBA, Avicii - 3 Viewpoints - Archipelago Boat Experience - Neighborhoods: Gamla Stan, Sodermalm, Djurgarden island, and some Ostermalm & Norrmalm spots. - Food & Drink: Swedish cinnamon buns, Swedish meatballs, a local food market, a speakeasy, and a Viking beer hall; food & coffee suggestions throughout - ~10 Atlas Obscura finds (unique & unusual things) You will also find: - A few basic points about Sweden and Swedish culture (i.e. tap water, tipping expectations) - Accommodations: Our hotel + 3 others fitting different budgets - General Itinerary Plan (high-level view) - Additional activity and restaurant suggestions, in case you want to swap out some of the activities/restaurants we went to - Trip Cost Breakdown
