Excursion
We offer a small excursion during the evening of Friday, August 15th.
Rooftop tour
“Things may be different in other parts of the world, but in Stockholm people
hardly ever live in a little
house of their own on top of a roof. But Karlsson does. He is a very small, very
round, and very self-
possessed gentleman—and he can fly!“
from “Karlsson on the roof” by Astrid Lindgren
If you ever wanted to feel like Karlsson on the roof, then this tour is for you! Get a bird’s eye view of Stockholm from the rooftops of the city. You will walk along the rooftops of some of the city’s most historical buildings and learn about Stockholm’s history during this guided climbing/sightseeing tour. You can find more information on the organizer’s website: Takvandring.
