I didn't think the Vasa was going to leave the mark on me that it did. When I visited, I had a bad back and this museum had plenty of places to stop and rest and take pressure off my back. It's a good 7 floors. You can see almost every angle of the ship. The artwork and carvings on the outside of the ship was amazing to see the extensive detail and expressions. The size of the smallest mast was shocking. It really gave the vision of how large the ship truly is. We enjoyed the painted sculptures to show what they most likely looked like when they were on the ship. The museum took about an hour for us to tour. We didn't do the walking tour and we didn't have a guided tour either. But if you are extensively into history or the full story of the ship, I would recommend it. The gift shop has lots of souvenirs and is worth the stop

The Vasa Museum was a pretty awesome thing to see in Stockholm. The 17th century warship is so well preserved. In fact, it is still an incredible 98% original. There is an auditorium where you can watch a short film about Vasa, which was very helpful and educational. The ship is actually still actively being worked on to preserve it, decades after it was salvaged in the 1960s. If you are a visiting Stockholm for the first time, I highly recommend that you visit this amazing museum.

The Vasa Museum is a very well designed and built museum, with lots of fun facts and information regarding living on the ship, what happened to it, etc. I found it very informative and interesting. And of course, the preserved ship was just amazing. I’d say the price is worth it, we spent somewhere between 2-3 hours here. It was a bit crowded, not gonna lie, but still manageable. If you are visiting Stockholm, you should definitely check out this museum!

A must-visit in Stockholm! The museum is laid out so nicely. Each floor is dedicated to specific “layers” of the ship, so you are learning about something that you can see directly from where you are standing. The bottom floor has very interesting stories about the people on it, as well as DNA research into who they were. We spent an hour here as we arrived close to closing time but easily could have stayed for much longer — wish we had two hours or more!

This was one of the most interesting museums I’ve ever been to. My initial thought was, how much content could there be for a museum about just one boat? Well tons! They found a way to highlight so many aspects of this ship’s short journey. The museum touches on the passengers, the construction, the history and the unfortunate fate of the ship’s maiden voyage among many other aspects. This museum is well worth your time.

The museum was simply amazing. I had never seen or visited anything like it before. It made a strong impression on both me and my boyfriend. Although I’m not particularly interested in ship-related themes, I was very pleasantly surprised. I found it fascinating and thoroughly enjoyable, and two hours passed completely unnoticed. My boyfriend was also deeply impressed and said it is simply the best museum in Stockholm. We visited in the evening, and I think it’s better to come earlier to avoid time constraints. Also, during the day, the interior is probably brighter, which might make the experience even better.

This is an impressive museum. Not only have they built a building around the ship, but many different sections that highlight various aspects of the ship and life on it. The many different texts were informative and luckily not too long. Listening to the audio via qr code is an easy and convenient way to get a feel for the narrative around the ship.

This ws my first open air museum experience. I loved it. There were even people role playing from the era they belonged. The historical walk was an amazing experience. Although all the places wete not open, I could still get to experience few of the attractions. I personally was amazed by the glass making workshop. The zoo on the other side was also a fun experience. The ticket also included access to the match museum. It was worth the money and time. I ended up spending 3+ hours, yet I could not go to all the spots. Children's would love this place no doubt. During summer, this is the best place to come along with family. Online tickets are cheaper then buying on spot.

Loved our visit to Skansen! We went in early November and despite some attractions being shut, we still had a fantastic day. You really need a full days’ visit to see everything. You can walk around and see people dressed up in traditional clothing, some people will also interact with you or answer any questions you might have about their house. We saw the glassblowing and pottery demo and spoke to the nice man in the spice shop who made us feel like we were transported back in time to the 1800s. Don’t miss out on the English-speaking tour that starts by the top of the escalators as the guide takes you to parts of Skansen you don’t get access to on your own. The animals were a real highlight, we also loved seeing the smaller ones in the children’s zoo (bunnies, guinea pigs, mice). The seal talk is in Swedish but they do a demonstration of the keepers feeding the seals and that is also lovely to see. There was a lot to see and not enough time to go to the aquarium on our visit so we didn’t do that. There are some food stalls, a nice sit down restaurant and snacks being sold so we were able to have a lovely lunch inside. We booked our tickets online ahead of our visit.

We had a great time at Skansen. The old houses and farm buildings were fascinating to walk through – each one comes from a different part of Sweden, so you really get a feel for how people lived in the past. Seeing the Nordic animals was another highlight for us; lynx, wolverines, bears, and moose all in one place is pretty special. We visited as two adults, but it’s easy to see how much fun this would be for my kids too, with the animals, open-air history, and hands-on activities. There are also cafés and nice spots to take a break, so you can easily spend most of the day here. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in Stockholm.

Skansen Museum is an absolute must-visit in Stockholm! I loved exploring the open-air exhibits and getting a glimpse of how people lived in Sweden centuries ago. The traditional houses, workshops, and beautiful surroundings make the visit feel like stepping back in time. The animals were a lovely bonus, especially in such a well-kept environment. It’s a peaceful and charming place to spend a few hours, with great views and lots to learn. Highly recommended!

Really enjoyed Skansen museum. Was great to see local wild animals and different house buildings from Sweden. It would be great if more buildings were open to enter and explore but even without that it was a nice place to walk around. There were few cafes inside and some souvenir shops.

It was one of the best places I have ever been to. We booked the “Morning with animals” experience and it was one of the most interesting things I’ve ever done. The tour guide (shoutout to Martin) was absolutely dedicated to being as helpful as possible and explained everything in perfect English. As for the park, we got to see a lot of local animals and it was magical. The buildings are also stunning and incredibly beautiful, making you feel like you’re in a fairy tale. Would visit every weekend if it were possible.

such an amazing experience!! there is so much to see!! lots of sweeden history, from 1930's and more! they also have a petting zoo, and some Nordic animals. so you get a little of everything, from history, animals and great food!! a full package!! come visit!! loved it.

Visiting ABBA The Museum was an unforgettable experience! Even if you’re not the biggest fan of the band, the museum’s interactive exhibits make it fun and engaging for everyone. I loved stepping into recreated stage outfits, recording my own ABBA song, and seeing original memorabilia up close. The atmosphere is energetic and joyful, and the staff are welcoming. It feels less like a traditional museum and more like stepping into the world of ABBA. Definitely a must-see if you’re in Stockholm!

One of the BEST museums I’ve ever been to! It could be because I am an ABBA fan and so is my family, but another big reason is that the museum has so many FUN INTERACTIVE elements that there’s no way you ain’t gonna enjoy once you enter. From dancing, singing, designing your own costume, to playing the musical chess, I think this museum is just one of its kind and a MUST MUST MUST visit when in Stockholm!

A fun museum!! I am not one to really enjoy museums and this one was worth the time and cost. The first display I saw was about the show in London with holograms. I never knew that and found it absolutely fascinating what they did! I loved the interactive 5th member of Abba stage, the silent disco, and the fun mirrors and photo taking opportunities. I enjoyed the Mama Mia area explaining the movie. As someone who never saw the movie, I found the information and designs interesting. There is a large section with post Abba music from all the members. I never knew the amount of music the members post group. This is a fun museum and I recommend it to everyone.

So much fun! Tons of original artifacts, storytelling, and interactive exhibits celebrating the music of ABBA. If you love this band’s timeless pop hits (and really, who doesn’t?), you’ll have a blast and learn something to deepen your connection with “Dancing Queen,” “Take a Chance on Me,” and all the rest. Long live ABBA!

For music lovers, this is a Must Go place if you're in Stockholm. In fact, this is probably the main reason why you should make a trip to Stockholm!! A pilgrimage of sorts for us especially the generation that grow up listening to songs with really good melodies. ABBA epitomizes Pop music at a time when folks crosses over to Pop. We'll always be listening to Dancing Queen, Fernando, Mamma Mia, Money Money Money, Thank You for the Music, etc. These are truly evergreens. Although it's rather small in size, you should expect to spend 2 to 3 hours here. It's so nostalgic, capturing and each display will bring you back to the years gone by. Maybe even some tears as you start reminiscing your younger days. Even if ABBA is not up your alley, this is still a must go place if you're into music. Enjoy!!

Awesome experience with an audioguide (using your own smartphone, bring earphones) to tell the story of how the band formed, their inspiration, composition process, and more. There was also a fun, interactive part to sing with the songs from ABBA in a mini studio, a show to perform side by side with them, and a nice bar and restaurant in the entrance. I’d like to have seen more options to purchase in the shop.

One of the best museums I've been to! Such an educational and fun experience. You can read, watch, listen, sing and dance! A lot to enjoy and a lot of cute details. Can recommend!

Amazing restaurant experience with lovely staff and ambience. We had these two ‘snacks’ first, a thin sliced boar on toast (but much more than that) and a cup of goat cheese w berry. The tomato mezze was sublime and the squid with poached egg was my highlight; probably my best squid dish in years. Fun room with kitchen action plus views of the harbor. Free admission to museum with your reservation💕 Thanks all!

Excellent photography gallery in a striking coastal location in Stockholm. Located in an excellent architectural conversion of a previous customs building offers some dynamic exhibition spaces. On display at the time were exhibitions by the photographer video and film director Anton Corbijn , international images by Viviane Sassen and mid 20th century photographs by Hans Hammarskiold.

Great museum in an old building, interesting exhibitions. The bistro is excellent! Ate a pulled pork burger and an apple tart, and it was very good quality for a fair price. It has a lounge area, with great photos on rotation on huge screens. Very good ambiance. If I visit Stockholm again, this will be a must!

Fotografiska is such a cool place modern, creative, and full of inspiring exhibitions. The photos are always top-notch, and they rotate often, so there’s something new every visit. The café upstairs has one of the best views in Stockholm (and great food too!). Even if you’re not super into photography, it’s worth going for the atmosphere alone.

Location is good. View from cafe amazing. Phots on first floor I doing amazing, just super cool. Second floor was a bit abstract for me. If your are in Stockholm defiantly put this on the todo list.

Had an hour to kill before jumping a boat back to the motherland, so we decided to kill here. The photos were great and atmosphere fantastic. Highly recommend if you’ve got a couple hours before a ferry. The bar served cold ones.

I was bemused . I expected something fresh , avant- guard but instead was accosted by the tried and true. I was hoping for an elevation but that never happened. There were two works that were impressive, and that I attribute to the skills of the photographers. In essence the body of work rehased seasoned tropes.

We were visiting the tower only and we enjoyed it a lot. It is very well kept, there is a lift for part of the stairs and there is a limited period of time you can spend upstairs as they form groups at certain intervals. I recommend buying tickets online as they dissappear fast.

Stockholm City Hall is one of the most impressive landmarks in the city – an architectural masterpiece that combines history, culture, and breathtaking views. The building is majestic from the outside with its red bricks, tall tower, and elegant arches, while the interior is equally stunning with its richly decorated halls, especially the Golden Hall, where mosaics glitter and tell stories from Sweden’s history. The outdoor areas are just as remarkable – the beautiful courtyard and gardens, the statue of Birger Jarl (the city’s founder), and the scenic promenade along the water. From here you get some of the best views of Stockholm and the surrounding islands. The place feels both peaceful and inspiring, perfect for photography or simply enjoying a walk and the atmosphere. I highly recommend joining a guided tour – you’ll discover many fascinating stories about the building and the Nobel Prize banquets held here. Even if you don’t go inside, the complex and the waterfront are a must-see stop for every visitor to Stockholm. A true symbol of the city – beautiful, inspiring, and unforgettable! 🌟

We had such an amazing time visiting the Stockholm City Hall! The building is stunning, but what really made the visit special was our guide, Chris (Christopher). He was honestly phenomenal — super knowledgeable, funny, and so passionate about what he does. You could tell he truly loves sharing the history and stories behind the place, and Stockholm's/Sweden's history in general, which made the whole tour come alive. We all left saying how much we wished there were more guides like him! If you get the chance to visit, definitely do the English guided tour — it’s 100% worth it.

Stadstuset, is the city hall of Stockholm Municipality in Sweden. It is the venue of the Nobel Prize banquet and a major attraction for tourists. It is an example of Sweden's National Romantic style architecture, having a refined eclecticism, some elements of Venetian Gothic architecture, having blue decorated walls and made with almost 8 million red bricks.. In 1907, the work started being assembled, while the construction took twelve years, from 1911 to 1923, being finally inaugurated on 23rd of June 1923.

It is a truly amazing place to visit, with beauty both inside and out. As it is a building where people work, they have implemented strict rules, including being escorted by a local guide, which is a sensible measure for maintaining order. The interior is particularly lovely, featuring a variety of different rooms.

A masterpiece of Swedish Architecture. This building is an amazing experience for all whom are interested in nordic architecture philosophy. The legacy of heritage in terms of spaces and finishings could be found here. Huge interior spaces, impressive dialogue between walls - floors and ceilings. Genuine local marble, beautiful textured brickwork. A landmark of Stockholm, the heart of Nobel Prize Ceremony, which shouldn't be missed from your itinerary.

Definitely worth a visit. Went for a wedding and the whole entire walk to the officiants location is a museum tour! Would love to go in the daytime for a full tour.

I took a guided tour and it was very good! The history and original decor was beautiful! There is no natural light in many rooms as to protect the artwork, so it was a little difficult to get quality photos and see some of the fine detail. The tour was not too long, but the chapel in a separate section of the main entrance was amazing and free to enter!

We didn’t have time to buy tickets for entry, but there is a small gift shop that you can visit without entering the palace. The items there make for lovely souvenirs, and the prices are very reasonable. The quality of the products is quite good, making it a worthwhile stop even if you can’t go inside the palace itself

Great Palace to visit. One of the best we have seen in Scandanavia. Well worth avisit. Allow at least 2 hours though. Depending on time of yesr you visit, buy tickets in advance.

Pretty expensive... But definitely worth the money if you enjoy history. We missed the noon guard change too so somehow try to make it, as it's something that will enhance the experience. It's interesting to visit the museum and be sure to occasionally look up at the ceiling for some beautiful designs. The palace was also pretty good and child-friendly :) gamla stan itself is a good place, tbh

Visiting the Royal Palace in Stockholm was an absolute highlight of my trip! The sheer grandeur and elegance of the building left me in awe from the very first moment. With its impressive architecture and rich history, it truly feels like stepping into a living piece of Sweden’s royal heritage. Each room we entered told a story, from the beautifully adorned halls to the treasures in the Royal Apartments and the glittering Crown Jewels in the Treasury. I especially loved the changing of the guard outside, which added a touch of ceremony and tradition to the experience. What I appreciated most was how well everything is preserved and presented. It’s not just a “museum,” it’s a vibrant place where history and tradition are still alive today. If you’re visiting Stockholm, the Royal Palace is a must. Whether you love history, architecture, or just want to immerse yourself in the regal atmosphere of Sweden, this place is unforgettable.

The palace was beautiful and there was some interesting art and architecture, but it’s not really that different from any other European royal palace to make it worth the 200kr/$20 ticket. If you are really into royals, this might be a more exciting place to visit. Otherwise you might be better off enjoying other sights.

If you’re somewhat interested in the royals or want to spend money, go for it. Otherwise I don’t believe it’s totally worth it. It’s just lots of mirrors and some artwork. Building was beautiful tho and staff seemed nice enough.

The train from Copenhagen Airport to Malmö, Sweden, is incredibly convenient. It crosses the Øresund Bridge, which connects Denmark and Sweden, offering smooth, scenic views along the way in just about 30 minutes. Travelers visiting Copenhagen should carry their passports, as border checks may occur. The bridge also accommodates cars, making it an essential link between the two countries. It stands as an impressive example of modern engineering and technology, symbolizing the strong connection between Denmark and Sweden..

Love it — Öresundsbron is a striking feat of Scandinavian engineering—a combined cable-stayed bridge and tunnel linking Copenhagen, Denmark, with Malmö, Sweden. It spans nearly 8 kilometers over the Øresund Strait before descending into the 4-kilometer Drogden Tunnel. Its sleek pylons and elegant symmetry embody Nordic minimalism and functionality. Visiting offers breathtaking sea views and a tangible sense of crossing between nations and cultures.

The Øresund Bridge is an impressive feat of engineering, seamlessly connecting Denmark and Sweden with stunning views over the strait. Whether crossing by train or car, the experience feels smooth, efficient, and scenic. The combination of bridge and tunnel is unique and adds to the sense of scale. It’s not cheap to cross by car, but the convenience and beauty make it worthwhile. A must-see landmark for travelers in the region.

Very neat, we crossed coming back to Copenhagen from Malmo. We even stopped to take some better pictures on the Sweden side.

I took a train from Copenhagen Airport to Malmö, Sweden, and it couldn’t have been easier! The train crosses the Øresund Bridge, which connects Denmark and Sweden — the ride itself is smooth and takes only about 30 minutes. There are helpful staff at CPH Airport who guide you on how to buy tickets or use the kiosks, so it’s very traveler-friendly. I went to Malmo, Sweden mainly to visit the Apple Store for a battery replacement (since Copenhagen doesn’t have an official Apple Store, only authorized resellers). The trip was quick, convenient, and a nice little cross-border experience —Highly recommend it if you’re in Copenhagen, have a few hours to kill, and your iPhone decides it needs a little Swedish vacation for battery therapy. 🇸🇪🔋😄

Øresund bridge is a stunning feat of engineering. God attempted to keep the Danes and Swedes apart when he created the Øresund, but the unbreakable spirit of man prevailed to keep the two nations connected in a unique and inspiring way. Today the bridge carries both road and rail passengers, allowing those who own or do not own cars to make this once perilous journey in an easy and convenient fashion. I took my bike on the train to cycle in Sweden from Malmö up to Helsingborg before taking the ferry back over to the homeland of the cinnamon roll. The journey was quick, easy, and convenient. I could've easily been on the Elizabeth line or any other form of easily accessible rail in the UK or across Europe. Isambard Kindom Brunel would be proud of such a feat of engineering. I'm sure his modern contemporaries are.

Travelling under Øresund Bridge via train was an incredible experience! The fact you can see out to sea and see as the lands of Denmark 🇩🇰 fade away and Sweden 🇸🇪 appear was a beautiful moment. When travelling from Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 to England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 or England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 to France 🇫🇷, these types of crossings by train are usually underground so it was particularly special to see this!

A lot of interesting places on the 'island', including an amusement park. We went to Prins Eugens house which contains an art gallery. Travelled by tram from the centre, but you can also get a ferry.

Perfect place for walk,bicycle and relax !!!

This island has several good museums. Yhe ABBA museum of course, and an entertainment park with roller coasters and other entertainments.

Dear San Franciscan, Beginning of October 2024, I stayed a few more days after completing my Scandic tour. Cool weather around 50F. Thought I need 3 day pass of using the train, but as long as you stay in city center, you don’t really need one. (example: At Six, or IKEA as my point of start), this is a city you can explore by foot. It’s 30 mins walk from City center, visited most of the museums, had lunch in one of the restaurant nearby, Viking Museum, ABBA museum, a walk by the river, passed the Noble st, got about 20K steps in a day. It is a relaxing day. Yes you want to do the cruise tour when you can, and sign up with a guide who can narrate it for you the history of the town and what you see. Breathe those fresh air. I can see me returning back to Stockholm just to visit more museums.

A must-visit for anyone traveling to Stockholm. This island is absolutely beautiful and open to the public for free! The park is extremely lush, green, and expansive with many experiences to choose from, whether you are looking to take a long stroll, stretch out on a blanket, eat a good meal with a scenic view, or learn about Swedish history at Skansen. I highly recommend having coffee or lunch at Rosendals Trädgård - a locally operated farm and dining destination centrally located in the park. There is even an option to take your meal and enjoy it in the beautiful apple orchard.

I enjoyed the peacefulness of my walk through the woods. The trails are well marked and can make a good workout should you wish to do so. Interesting how much they just leave it to nature rather than trying to manicure it to make it look pretty.

Absolutely gorgeous, no words enough to describe it

A great day tour idea. Easy to arrive from central Stockholm by public transport. The palace is really well preserved and it’s a great window to Swedish story. The gardens are beautiful and it’s a great spot to have a picnic, relax on the grass and enjoy the day. The palace and other buildings are paid but all gardens are free.

One of Sweden’s most beautiful royal residences and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Drottningholm Palace, located on Lovön Island near Stockholm, was built in the late 16th century and later transformed into a magnificent Baroque residence by Queen Hedvig Eleonora in the 1600s. Inspired by French architecture — especially Versailles — the palace became a symbol of Swedish royal power and artistic ambition. Over the centuries, it has been home to several monarchs, including the current royal family, who still live in a private wing. The surrounding gardens are just as impressive: geometric Baroque designs, long tree-lined avenues, fountains, and peaceful English-style landscapes. One of the most unique features is the Drottningholm Court Theatre, built in 1766 and still operating with its original 18th-century stage machinery — a rare treasure in the world of theatre history. Walking around the palace feels like stepping into Sweden’s royal past: elegant halls, grand architecture, and serene lakeside views all blend into a timeless atmosphere. A must-see landmark and one of the most beautiful royal palaces in Scandinavia.

What a beautiful Palace, it’s a must visit, very secluded so you will most likely be one of very few people visiting if you go early in the morning! The garden is lovely for a walk, they have a lake with ducks and swans too, oh what a luxury it is to live like royalty! 😌

Beautiful view. Much like a smaller less ornate Versailles. Garden is green and extensive in the summer. Interior is well maintained with good signs explaining the rooms if you don't go with a guided tour.

Short but nice visit inside: 40 minutes, treasure hunt for the children included. This activity was pretty pleasant for the whole family! The staff is nice, specially the Lady in the shop! Nice walk in the gardens.

Beautiful large castle from the 17th century. The castle serves as the private residence of the Swedish royal couple, but parts of the castle are open to the public. The castle is surrounded by a large park, which is also accessible to the public, but at the same time there are large parts of the park where you are not allowed to go.

Extremely well kept palace with informative audio guides. English guided tours are available for an additional price at 11:30 and 14:30. The allegories of the paintings and decorations of the drawing rooms are well-explained in the audio guides, which is accessible via the app.

The meat was cooked perfectly, with rich flavor and tenderness, but the prices felt a bit steep for what was offered. The service was fine, though not exceptional. Located in Malmö, a city known for its blend of modern innovation and historic charm, this spot aligns with the city's reputation for quality dining experiences. While it delivers on taste, there’s room for improvement in value and service to match Malmö's vibrant food scene.

The food, service, and ambiance were beautiful. I ordered beef tenderloin, sweet potato fries, and an IPA beer. I strongly advise you try this trio! :)

Lovely atmosphere. Staff weren't very friendly. We ordered chips and asked for mayo which had to go through the kitchen (?) so either finished eating or cold food to wait. We got hot chocolates, and one hot chocolate with baileys. Adding a shot of Bailey's was more than double the cost of the hot chocolate. Over priced area so I imagine most places are the same.

Amazing service, the sirloin steak was one of the best I had in Malmo

Ordered a chicken burger with two coffees in total. The coffees were both lukewarm and the burger dripping with barbecue sauce. The chicken meat had a nice panade, but was really thin on the meat part. My friends were ordering steaks, which were rare instead of medium and medium done. The meat was tough and lukewarm. The fries tasted like the ones from McDonald's and some of them were cold on the inside. The service was very friendly and quick to come if asked. Sadly, the time from ordering to serving was extremely long, with around an hour of waiting. The place didn't look like it was busy at all.

Great fish and chips! Steak was super good too.

We had lamb and Pariser bøf, as light dinner. The wine was so-so even though we paid 650kr for a bottle. Staff was friendly and attentive.

Incredible museum to go through. It was very interesting to see the artifacts from the different people who have received the award. There is a small cafe as well and the staff are extremely friendly and knowledgeable. There is an accessible entrance in the back of the building you can use a doorbell to get in.

The Nobel Prize Museum is absolutely fascinating and incredibly informative. It offers a captivating journey through the history of the Nobel Prize and the remarkable achievements of its laureates. From interactive exhibits to inspiring stories of innovation, peace, and discovery, the museum brilliantly showcases how these groundbreaking contributions have shaped our world. I highly recommend visiting not only for the rich knowledge you'll gain but also for the inspiration it sparks.

The Nobel Prize Museum is a must-visit when in Stockholm. The history is incredibly fascinating. The museum is rather small, you can do this in about 45mins unless you meticulously read and watch every single one offer which would probably take you 1hr 30mins. It was great to learn more about the incredible people who have helped humanity understand our universe and made the world a better place 🌍

Visiting the Nobel Museum in Stockholm was truly one of the highlights of my trip. From the moment you step inside, you’re immersed in an atmosphere that celebrates curiosity, discovery, and human achievement. The museum manages to strike a perfect balance between history, science, and personal stories, making it just as engaging for casual visitors as it is for those deeply interested in innovation and culture. The exhibits are beautifully presented—informative without ever feeling overwhelming—and they showcase the incredible diversity of Nobel Prize laureates, spanning peace, literature, science, and economics. I especially enjoyed the interactive displays, which made complex ideas more approachable and allowed me to connect with the human side of groundbreaking discoveries. The storytelling is both inspiring and humbling; it leaves you reflecting not only on the brilliance of the laureates but also on the values of curiosity, peace, and collaboration that the Nobel Prize stands for. The museum staff were friendly, welcoming, and very knowledgeable, adding even more depth to the experience. On top of that, the location in the heart of Stockholm’s beautiful Old Town makes it easy to combine with a stroll through charming cobblestone streets and cafes. Whether you love science, history, literature, or just want to leave with renewed optimism about humanity’s potential, the Nobel Museum is an absolute must-visit. I left feeling inspired and uplifted—it’s not just a museum, but an experience that celebrates the best of human creativity and vision.

A good place to learn about Nobel prize and the winners. You can see a lot of things from Nobel himself and Nobel laureates. It is a relatively new museum. Hope that it will get richer donations from Nobel laureates in the future.

A must visit in Stockholm! Small place but with lots of cool information! The audio guide is good to understand and dive deeper into some specific Nobel prize receivers. Very intriguing to read about all the inventions and discoveries of all these amazing people!

Got lucky and joined one of the guided tour. The guide was really helpful and kept the tour concise and interesting. Worth to spend at least 1.5 hours in.

Overall, decent experience, but after visiting a few places like this around Europe it is unfortunately average. Animals are few and between, some tanks are dirty and with a lot of green algae. My child had a decent time but as a adult you would expect a little bit more.

Such an amazing place! A must visit if you go to Gothenburg There is something for everyone here- space,dinosaurs, science, aquarium, rainforest, kids place area. There is a cafe and restaurant on site too, we went to the cafe and the food was lovely we got a grilled cheese and a cookie. The place itself is fantastic, there is so many opportunities to learn things and to get involved in activities. It truly is such a lovely place that you can spend hours in! Would definitely recommend!!!

Great experience! I actually went twice during my visit to Gothenburg. I went by myself at first and spend 1.5 hours there, enjoyed it so much that I went again with my partner for another hour. So much to see and enjoy for all ages. Definitely recommend visiting. It was a bit busy when I went during the day because there were some school classes also there (a lot of kids). The second time I went an hour before closing and it was quieter then.

Was a bit disappointed, there were a lot of aquariums or displays « in construction » or empty. The aquarium side seemed to be a bit abandoned. There was still a lot of information given by the posters. The rainforest was very nice, with birds flying freely in the space. Again, many things were just empty. It is nice that you have other exhibitions includes with you entry (body, space, data). It’s very kids oriented. Normally I enjoy aquariums as much as kids, but for this one I should’ve skipped it, not enough fishes (no jelly fish for example, very few mantras, lack of fish in the big fish tunnel). Good thing is after 16:30 it’s only 200kr!

It's nicely designed & well made, we loved it! -1⭐️ because they (currently?) have a massive spider problem! Codwebs are EVERYWHERE & you genuinely have to be careful from spiders hanging from ceilings (we had to duck under 3 & probably still disturbed some nets) It therefore looks a little badly taken care of because of that.. So be warned it you suffer from Arachnophobia haha

A full day of fun, learning, and exploring nature! Universeum is great for kids and families. Don’t miss the incredible Wisdome experience; the 3D universe and T.Rex shows were highlights. Be sure to ask for the English recorded machine if needed. The Aquarium and reptiles section was very good. While the Rainforest was good, we noticed many animals were missing and could only spot flamingos. Despite the missing rainforest residents, the overall experience was excellent and highly recommended.

Honestly, it's a bit for kids but me and two other 40 year old men still enjoyed it. Go in, go to the elevators at the back and go to floor 7. We went in after 3pm so it was cheaper. From there there's a series of ramps and you can basically walk down through the whole building. Floor to ceiling fish tanks, reptile area, space and science area with a cloud chamber that was cool. Little screen with some cool videos. Then you can go through the hot house floors, nipping out through the airlocks to checkout the floors adjacent on your way down as it's very humid in there, breaks recommended. For us it filled a few hours and one of us needs a walking stick so highly recommend that top down route for that reason.

If you want a quick history of the country and Stockholm itself this is a great option. And not only do they give a history of the surrounding area, you get to see it while hearing about it!

Short and sweet. Mostly nature and a huge park. I recommend it but lower expectations. This is not a river tour. More like a bay jaunt.

We had a lovely time on the Dinner Cruise to Drottningholm with Prins Carl Philip. Delicious food and a relaxing athmosphere. I've noticed some reviews mention that the cruises can be crowded, but that was not our experience. We went on a Thursday in early June, and there was no line to get on, there was plenty of space tovwalk around and find a seat and we could walk between our table and the deck to get some fresh air without problem. Stopped at Drottningholm for a short stroll before enjoying the scenery and some dessert on our way back.

Beautiful sides. Unfortunately, it was a rainy day. If possible avoid going on rainy days. Because the glass of the boat might get foggy and you wont be able to see anything from the windows.

Nice boat tour to know more about Stockholm. Some knowledge of history and current trends of Stockholm were explained.

EXCELLENT. and a great intro to Stockholm on your first day in the city. Gives you the lay of the land, the boat is both open air and covered so not particularly weather dependent.

Not the nicest day for this, suggest booking after checking the weather and availability. Could not pick a sunny day because it was fully booked the day before.

Small place with a lot of tales of Astrid Lindgren. The fairy tale train was nice but the place seems to be more focused on sales of souvenirs, food, drinks which occupied most of the area. There could be more areas related to Astrid Lindgren which was a little limited.

Wonderful experience. I went alone as an adult on my trip to Sweeden, and I enjoy a lot with the decoration, and I love the attraction where you make a tour between all the tales. I'm also an author and illustrator, so I was so inspired to create fantasy!

We were here when the child was 10 years old. I think if the child were older, it would be difficult for them here – many of the attractions would be too small, they simply wouldn’t fit. But we had a great time visiting this place. A special favorite was the Story Train, which won’t leave even an adult indifferent.

The place to visit with kids & family in Stockholm. A very well adventure of Pipi‘s World and some other stories can be seen in Junibacken. Places to play and see theater play (in Swedish). There is also a story train ride that is really nicely done in many languages that you define at the beginning. The restaurant prices are fair. You should book in advance also the theater play separately (a bit complicated online) otherwise you won’t be able to see the Pipi show.

Not worth it! Too crowded, too little to do, too expensive. If you are a family of 4 (2 grownups and 2 kids), I think there are better ways to spend both the time and money in Stockholm. The building looks large but most of the space is taken by the “fairy tale train”, which is cool but it lasts about 5 minutes and gives summaries for Astrid Lindgren’s stories (not very novel). The queue to get to the train was about 20 minutes. When we thought of having another ride as there was no queue at the end of the day, it turned out we had to pay 20kr extra per person. Which is honestly quite petty given that we paid over 200kr per person in entrance fees for a 5 minute experience. There is also a possibility to attend a theater performances. It’s 20 minutes long and you need to prebook the tickets. We arrived at ca 13:45, there were no tickets left by then (which made it extra annoying that it was required to pay for the fairy tale ride). Apart from these two activities, there are 3 playrooms nicely decorated around the themes from different stories such as Pippi Longstrump, Lasse Maja, Petsson and Findus etc. There’s also an activity room to build with PlusPlus. And there’s a Moomin playground outside, with fun figures but without any swings and only 2 slides (one of which is a meter long and dangerously rusty). We arrived at around 14:00 and were quite done with the place by 17:00. It would have even been enough to be there less. Upon arrival it was really crowded, and too warm. By 15:30 it was quite empty. In general felt like a rip off for what we got. Kids thought it was cool with the decorations. We as parents were quite miserable and disappointed.

What a wonderful experience for the kids! The play areas were fun and the train was something next level. It was fantastic. Be aware the stories turn a little dark but we were okay with that. The kids loved it!

Lovely place to dive into the Swedish children stories. Our kids from 10, 7 and 4 enjoyed it. Enough installations to physically get engaged. Plan 1-2hr for you visit.
