Stockholm holidays

Stockholm maybe Sweden’s capital city but it has a distinctive village ‘feel’ to it that makes this charming location a very friendly and relaxed destination. Built on a picturesque patchwork of islands linked by bridges and served by ferries, the boats that bob in the harbours and the city’s elegant palaces give Stockholm a unique appeal. If you’re booking a package holiday to Stockholm with Qatar Airways Holidays, you’ll find plenty to see and do.

Look out for the Royal Palace of Drottningholm, which has been designated as a UNESCO world heritage site. Wander through the Old Town to explore its cobbled streets and beautiful bridges that hold the whole architectural collage together. With outstanding shopping, excellent restaurants, and its very own ABBA museum, booking a package holiday to Stockholm with Qatar Airways Holidays is a great idea at any time of year.

  • There are plenty of boat trips available allowing you to cruise the canals or hop between the 14 islands that make up this superb city.
  • Gamla Stan is the island that acts as home to Stockholm’s Old Town. Explore the palace of the Swedish Royal Family, visit the Nobel Museum or enjoy a coffee and a cake in one of the open-air cafés.
  • If there are any shoppers in your party, Norrmalm is the place to go for designer goods and chic boutiques.
  • The city’s subway system is known as the “world’s longest art gallery”. Most stations show works from over 150 artists helping to make the journey across the city a real pleasure.
