Overview

We’ll pick you up from central Stockholm for you to embark on an adventure through the stunning Stockholm archipelago with our thrilling RIB boat experience combined with a visit to the beautiful Island of Grinda.

Feel the adrenaline rush as you speed across the sparkling waters aboard our high-speed RIB boat. Take in panoramic views of the archipelago’s pristine landscapes and rugged coastline as our expert guides navigate through the scenic views. Your guide will give you the stories about the historic sites and houses you will pass, as well as the history of the archipelago.

After an invigorating ride, step ashore on Grinda Island to experience the archipelago’s natural beauty. Grinda is a nature reserve owned by the Archipelago Foundation, so there’s no privately owned properties on the island. You’ll have 2 hours to explore the island’s beaches, woods, restaurants and farm. When you are satisfied your captain is waiting to take you back to the city centre.

    Vaxholm (pass by)

    Vaxholm, is often referred to as the capital of the archipelago. People here have lived off herring fishing for many generations. In the 1500s, King Gustav Vasa decided to put the defence of Stockholm's inlet here. It was the beginning of what would be almost 500 years of military history for Vaxholm residents. The Citadel still stands on the strait just outside the city.The old fortress was its own little society populated by senior military offers and their wives, soldiers, servants and prisoners. Toward the end of the 1800's, Vaxholm became a popular resort area for Stockholm's socialites. It was also around then that the city became known for its Vaxholm herring - a delicacy that is still served today at local restaurants.

    Q: Will I get seasick on RIB Speed Boat Tour and Archipelago Island Visit (4,5h)?

    A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
