I'm not a big fan of ice skating, but my daughter convinced me to book this trip. It was really amazing. We went on a first lake, but it snows the night before and the lake was covered with 5 cm snow. So it was very difficult to skate forward, even with the stock. So our guide find another lake, where the path was cleaned up. Then the skating was really easy. We heard also how the ice was thundering under us. It was really impressive. We had also a fire and a fika on a small island. It was wonderful.

100% recommend and 100% worth the money. We went at the end of February and the conditions were still great. Johan was a great guide, took care of everything. There was literally nothing to complain about. If you go to Stockholm, don't waste money on expensive bars, go do something fun outside instead.

Fantastic day which will be one of the highlights of my time in Sweden! The guides are amazing, the quality of the equipment is great and I felt safe at all times. The included lunch/snacks were well thought out too. I went with my friend who has never been skating before so it’s great that we could split into different groups based on ability so that everyone could enjoy the day. A must do activity whilst you’re in Stockholm.
