I'm planning a trip to Scandinavia in August 2025 and we'll be spending an extra day in Stockholm. I'm curious about how to make the most of that time. Are there must-see attractions or hidden gems that are worth visiting? I’d love to hear suggestions on how to spend that extra day, especially if there are any unique experiences or local cuisine I should try!
 
Stockholm is a fantastic city, and with an extra day, you can explore both the popular sights and some hidden gems. Since you’re looking for unique experiences, consider visiting Djurgården Island, where you can find the Vasa Museum—home to a stunning 17th-century ship—and the peaceful Rosendals Garden. For local cuisine, don’t miss trying some traditional Swedish meatballs or herring at a local food market like Östermalms Saluhall. Are there any specific interests you have in mind that I can suggest activities around?

Those are excellent suggestions! If you’re interested in local culture, you might want to check out the Fotografiska, a contemporary photography museum with a vibrant café that offers fantastic views of the city. Additionally, taking a stroll through Gamla Stan, the old town, is a must—its cobblestone streets are full of charm and history. For a unique experience, how about a guided kayak tour in the archipelago? It’s a great way to see the city from a different perspective. What kinds of activities do you usually enjoy when traveling?

Those are some great ideas! If you enjoy cultural experiences, consider visiting the ABBA Museum for a fun take on Swedish music history. Also, you might enjoy a walk along the waterfront at Strandvägen for beautiful views of the city. Given that you’re into local cuisine, trying a cinnamon bun at Vete-Katten, a classic patisserie, could be a delightful treat! What kind of atmosphere do you prefer when exploring—more relaxed or lively?

Stockholm has so much to offer! If you're looking for a relaxed vibe, spending some time in Djurgården is perfect—it's a beautiful park with museums and peaceful spots to unwind. For a lively atmosphere, check out Södermalm, which has trendy cafes and shops. And don't miss the chance to try some traditional Swedish meatballs at a local restaurant! What's your favorite type of cuisine when traveling?
