Stockholm Evening Kayak with BBQ.

13.Stockholm Evening Kayak with BBQ.

★★★★★★★★★★3.7 · 15 reviews · from $141

Meet your English-speaking guide near Hornstull, paddle around Stockholm for about two hours, then walk to a beach on Långholmen for grilled sausages and coffee. The group is limited to 10. A fire ban may replace the barbecue with a cold dinner.

“The setting was beautiful. The directions to the location were not great. The guide was nice, but shared very little information about the city. We were told the BBQ was not allowed due to heat, but the only substitute was sandwiches the guide needed to assemble from his car and we weren’t offered any sort of price deduction. The cost we paid was nearly double the cost posted at the place we got the kayaks and I don’t understand why.”
