- Fjällgatan
What we will do
- We take out our cameras ready to capture the spirit of
Stockholm and create a true social photo feature.
- Our excursion begins with a sightseeing
tour of the city starting with the magnificent island of Djurgården,
a former royal hunting reserve that is now an idyllic place for wonderful walks
with many museums just a stone’s throw from the city centre.
- Our
first stop is the
island of Skeppsholmen, from where we can admire the city
skyline - an unmissable occasion to capture this breathtaking scenery on
camera!
- We
continue towards the centre and go on a guided walking tour of the old city - or Gamla Stan -
between picturesque squares and characteristic cobbled alleyways winding
between ancient and elegant buildings with Baroque doors. We cross Stortorget,
the centre’s main square around which the city grew in the 1300s. It is home to
the Stock
Exchange Building, the headquarters of the Nobel Museum and the
Swedish Academy, among others. We take a peek at the narrowest alleyway in Stockholm
called Mårten
Trotzigs gränd, which climbs up with 36 steps that are only 90
centimetres wide, and continue with a little free time around the old city,
that offers us endless photo opportunities: will we manage to capture all its
charm in a single picture?
- We then enjoy a coach sightseeing tour
through the Diplomatstaden
residential district, characterised by luxurious villas, embassies and homes
surrounded by greenery, and the elegant Östermalm quarter.
- Our last stop is Fjällgatan,
one of the most characteristic streets in Stockholm lined by old wooden houses
and lapped by the waters of Lake Mälaren, beyond which we can admire (and obviously
take a picture of) a magnificent panoramic view of the city.
- Our excursion has come to an end: we return to our
ship ready to post all the emotions we have enjoyed, which will be forever
etched in our memories and available on our photo gallery.
