[quote=Anonymous]Don’t plan on more than 1-2 days in Gothenburg, there is not that much to do there.

Highly recommended Gotland, there are short easy flights departing from Bromma airport so you don’t have to spend the day on a boat to get there.  You could easily spend a few days there.  The beaches and rock formations are incredible.

Spend a day at Grona Lund, a fantastic amusement park on Djurgarden.

Visit Kungstragarden, there are often free shows and events but it is worth taking some time just to lounge around in the park.  You could also spend a day walking around the island of Sodermalm, which has some fantastic scenery, old buildings, and shopping.

If you like kayaking, stand up paddle boarding, etc. there are many places to rent and it’s a fun way to spend a morning or afternoon and see the city from a different perspective.

Make sure to take bathing suits/towels everywhere.  Stockholm has incredibly clean water and there are places to swim everywhere!  Beaches, rock formations, and built up city piers.

Skansen is worth a day.  The Vasa Museum is popular but I would combine that with maybe a couple smaller museums like the Viking or Abba.

There is a beautiful 10k trail around the island of Kungsholmen with a beach and a swimming boardwalk and lots of great little places to eat and relax.  Be prepared to see the every square inch of open ground covered in Swedes when it’s sunny.

Every t-bana station is decorated with a different theme, so even taking public transportation can be interesting.

Also recommend a day trip to Sigtuna, it’s a charming town.

Hope this helps, Stockholm is an amazing city and I hope your family enjoys your trip![/quote]
