Tourist Guide to Stockholm: Discover the City with the Audio Guide

Stockholm is built across numerous islands, and the relationship between water and city accompanies practically every visit.

With the GuideXpress Stockholm audio guide you can explore the historic centre and the surrounding areas while listening to stories about the monarchy, Swedish history and culture.

The app is a digital tourist guide to Stockholm that lets you organise your route freely.

What to See in Stockholm: Gamla Stan and Main Attractions

The historic heart of the city is Gamla Stan, characterised by narrow alleys, squares and buildings with colourful façades.

This is also where the Royal Palace stands, one of the Swedish capital's most emblematic landmarks.

The audio guide helps you understand the role these places have played in the history of the city and of the monarchy.

Visiting Stockholm on Foot: Between Gamla Stan and the Waterfront

Gamla Stan is particularly well suited to being explored on foot.

From its streets you can reach bridges and waterside walkways that offer very different perspectives on the urban landscape.

With GuideXpress, every stretch of the walk can become an opportunity to get to know the city better.

Stockholm and the Swedish Monarchy

The Royal Palace and other institutional sites tell the story of the long relationship between Stockholm and the royal family.

The history of the monarchy also helps you understand Sweden's political and cultural development.

The audio guide links places, figures and events into a narrative that is easy to follow as you visit.

Itineraries in Stockholm: Islands and Lesser-Known Neighbourhoods

The Swedish capital offers a great deal beyond Gamla Stan.

Crossing bridges and islands lets you discover different neighbourhoods, parks and views, making for particularly varied itineraries.
