Stockholm

A self-guided audio walking tour of Stockholm.

Stockholm is built across islands and the water is never far, glimpsed at the end of streets and lapping against the edges of old town stone. Gamla Stan is dense and atmospheric, but the city opens up quickly into broad waterfronts and calm residential streets where life moves at an easy pace. It rewards wandering in any direction. In the app, 100 stops in Stockholm are narrated aloud, about 2h 50m of listening across 8 walking routes, in 13 languages, offline once downloaded. Choose a route or build your own, then walk while a calm voice tells you the story of each stop. The app also maps 100 Instagram photo spots, social media photo locations with directions to where you stand for the shot.
