Stops on this route
Stockholm
Stockholm is Sweden's capital, built across fourteen islands where Lake Mälaren meets the Baltic Sea. Its medieval old town, grand waterfront palaces, and world-class museums have made it one of northern Europe's most distinctive capitals.
Uppsala
Uppsala is Sweden's fourth-largest city and home to Scandinavia's oldest university, founded in 1477. Its skyline is anchored by the twin spires of the largest cathedral in the Nordic countries, and the city carries a long history as a center of learning and, before that, of Norse religious ritual.
Gothenburg
Gothenburg is Sweden's second-largest city, a west-coast port built along canals in the 17th century with strong Dutch influence on its street plan. It has since grown into a hub of shipping, industry, and a distinctive, laid-back food and culture scene.
Malmö
Malmö is Sweden's third-largest city, at the southern tip of the country facing Denmark across the Öresund strait. A former industrial shipbuilding town, it has reinvented itself over the past two decades with striking modern architecture, a diverse population, and a compact, walkable center around its medieval main square.
