What to expect
Day 1 Meet your group and set off on an adventure

Stockholm Adventures
20 min
You will meet your group and guide and head out of the city toward the archipelago proper in search of adventure.
Day 2 Blissfully paddle in the archipelago
-
Bjorno Naturreservat
24 min
Our tours do not follow a fixed route, your guide will be flexible and pick the best route taking into consideration the weather, and the needs, desires and abilities of the group. You will often paddle to the outer “Skerries”, a true wilderness, and camp (in comfortable two-man tents) on uninhabited and remote islands, which are frequented by only a few people. If you have always dreamed of sleeping under the stars, this is your time! The night sky is truly remarkable when darkness finally falls. Our guides endeavor to lunch and camp on a new island each time they take multiday tours out into the archipelago, so as to keep our impact on the nature to a minimum.
