Why eco-friendly tourism is essentinal?

Eco-friendly tourism, also known as sustainable tourism, is essential for the preservation of the planet and the long-term survival of the tourism industry. It is a way of traveling and experiencing the world that respects the environment, the local community, and cultural heritage, while also providing a unique and authentic experience for travelers.

At STOCKHOLM NATURE, we are committed to promoting sustainable tourism practices and minimising our impact on the environment. We believe that eco-friendly tourism is not only essential for the preservation of the planet but also provides a unique and authentic travel experience for our guests. Join us on one of our eco-friendly tours and experience the beauty of the Stockholm Archipelago in a sustainable and responsible way.

Do I need any additional travel insurance?

The booking price excludes all forms of insurance. It is your responsibility as a customer (participation) to secure adequate insurance coverage. We highly recommend obtaining travel insurance, particularly if you are booking an outdoor activity with us.

Where is the meeting point?

The meeting point for each tour depends on the specific tour you have booked. You can find the meeting point location on your order confirmation email or on the tour page when you book. Please check this information carefully before the day of your tour.

How fit do I need to be to perform the tour?

All our day trips are open for everyone to join, regarding less of their fitness level. Our guides are used to adjust the speed and distance of each tour according to the needs of the group. For our overnight tours we believe you need a normal level of fitness. You have to be able to stay active over the amount of days the tour is running. Of course our guides will adjust speed and distance as needed for the group.

Latecomers will miss their activity

Please understand the importance of being on time, as we have to respect the time of other guests. If you happen to be running late, we'll wait for a few minutes before moving on. However, we also need to respect the schedule for other participants, so timely departure may be necessary and no refund is being given to late-comers. Thank you for your cooperation!

What dietary choices do you offer?

Certainly! We understand the significance of accommodating dietary restrictions and allergies. When booking your experience with us, we inquire about your specific requirements. Kindly respond to these questions during the booking process. Our meals are naturally vegetarian, but we're totally fine with providing options for vegan, gluten-free, or dairy-free preferences as well!

Do tours get cancelled due bad weather?

Rain isn't considered bad weather for us. We'll only cancel if the wind is too strong for kayaking or, occasionally, when hiking in the forest. Otherwise, our tours won't be canceled due to rain or other non-dangerous weather conditions.

What shoes do you recommend for hiking?

For your comfort and safety, we suggest opting for quality hiking shoes with good grip and ankle support. If you don't have hiking shoes, a pair of sturdy walking shoes (sneakers) with good grip will do just fine.

All hiking tours offer a moderate pace and approx. 10km distance. We take breaks as needed to adjust the pace to match the group's abilities.

Can I participate in kayaking as a beginner?

Absolutely! We tailor the pace to suit the abilities of the group. Whether you're a first-timer or an experienced kayaker, you're welcome to join us. We provide a safety briefing and practical information before we embark on the kayaking adventure, ensuring you'll have an enjoyable day!

Should I use a single or tandem kayak?

Single (solo) kayaks: This kayak type is ideal for experienced kayakers, allowing for greater maneuverability. However, this comes with more instability and a slower pace (more energy needed). Double (tandem) kayaks: Double kayaks are perfect for those who want to paddle with a partner in a stable kayak or for beginners, providing more stability and speed.

By default, we choose double (tandem) kayaks. Please let us know in advance if you prefer single kayaks, and we'll do our best to accommodate your preference.

Where can I store my travel luggage?

Archipelago Kayaking:
We have no dedicated storage space for larger luggage (suitcases e.g. ). However, you can take smaller backpacks (daypacks) directly with you into the kayak (dry compartment). Otherwise, you can use one of the dedicated luggage box providers in Stockholm.

Our Recommendation:
Luggage Hero T-Centralen (click link)

City-Kayaking:
You can store your belongings directly at the kayak station but we do not take any responsibility for the luggage itself. Therefore, please take all valuables with you into the kayak (dry compartment / dry bag).

What's the tipping policy in Sweden?

Tipping is not obligatory, but it is always much appreciated by our guides. In general, you can aim at 10% of the booking price, but only if you’re happy with the service.
