Evening Wildlife Safari with Campfire Dinner from Stockholm

1.Evening Wildlife Safari with Campfire Dinner from Stockholm

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 155 reviews · 5 hours (approx.) · from $166Our pick

Leave Stockholm by minivan for an evening in Tyresta National Park. With a guide such as Daniel, Oscar, Marietta, or Lucas, you’ll hike through old forest, look for deer, moose, foxes, and wild boar, then share dinner cooked over a fire. The group is limited to eight people.

“Oscar is the BEST guide. He truly loves nature and sharing his knowledge. We took the metro from old town Stockholm and it dropped us off within walking distance of the pickup point. From there we took a van to the hiking area. Along the way Oscar stopped to point out signs of animals (I don’t want to give too much away). The first part is a hike in the woods that leads to a very pretty lake. Along the way Oscar showed us lots of plants, berries, and explained how nature thrives in such a cold climate. It was really interesting. Our son is 11 and had no problem…”

Kayaking was easy if worries about that, just make sure you are comfortable climbing in and out and lifting yourself up to a dock.”

Stockholm Evening Kayak with BBQ.

13.Stockholm Evening Kayak with BBQ.

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

Meet your English-speaking guide near Hornstull and paddle around Långholmen for about two hours. Then walk to a beach for grilled sausages and coffee, with time for a swim or sunset. Groups are capped at 10, and dinner may become a cold meal during fire bans.

“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.”

We hiked through the beautiful forest, enjoyed the spectacular lake views, cooked dinner over a campsite, had one tea she made at the site, and then returned during the twilight enjoying the gorgeous evening light and quiet forest. We even saw a moose! I highly recommend this expedition and would go on another tour with Alexandra next time I’m in Stockholm!”
