Set out from the center of the downtown area and visit the scenic districts of Sodermalm, Norrmalm, Östermalm, Kungsholmen, Djurgården, and the old town of Gamla Stan, each with its own special character. You will visit the island of Djurgården, regarded as Stockholm's amusement and recreation center with great museums, parklands and gardens. View the Diplomatic quarters and elegant townhomes in Östermalm, the modern shopping and business areas at Hamngatan and Sergels Torg, and the island of Kungsholmen where you will see the impressive City Hall, the site of the annual Nobel Prize Banquet. A photo stop will be made at Fjallgatan with its magnificent view of the city. You will also drive across Gamla Stan, the city's old town and home to the Royal Palace.
Next, transfer to a boat for a cruise that will take you under fifteen bridges and through two locks connecting the Baltic Sea with Lake Mälaren. You will pass many of the city's sights as your boat glides by the different parts of Stockholm. Outside the window you will see the inner city, the Old Town, the islands Södermalm, Lilla and Stora Essingen, the new area Hammarby Sjöstad and the green areas of Djurgården. You will get a new perspective on the Towering City Hall, Royal Palace and a museum with masts sticking through its roof. Your tour ends back downtown in the center of sightseeing and shopping.
