Getting to the Archipelago
We pick you up and drop you off in Norrköping, the major hub of the area. It’s a beautiful city to spend the night before your adventure. You'll most likely travel to Stockholm Arlanda Airport, and then take a 2 hour train south. But there are other airports too, and of course arriving by train or car is much better for the environment!
Getting here
We pick you up at the train station or any hotel/hostel in Norrköping at 10:00 on your first day, and drop you back at 17:00 at the latest on your last day. You can either spend the night before your trip in Norrköping, but staying in Stockholm and taking the train down in the morning is also a good alternative. Check out our Visitor's Guide for Norrköping.
Depending on where you're travelling from, there are more options than Stockholm Arlanda. Linköping is our closest airport, served by KLM. If you have some extra time, visiting Copenhagen and taking the train north from there is another alternative. If you're travelling from Germany, you can take a sleeper train the whole way!
