RED Sightseeing Hop-on Hop-off Buss & Båt + Friluftsmuseum Skansen

Wow wow wow vart ska jag börja? Sedan jag köpte min biljett utav Johan på slottskajen fram tills jag gick av bussen är det här bästa upplevelsen gällande sightseeing. Sebastian gav en fantastisk resa som jag sent kommer att glömma, hans glöd och engagemang. Rekommenderar starkt om du besöker Stockholm!

The ticket includes pop on sightseeing bus and boat lines. It was convenient and worthy. Good experience!

Notre séjour à Stockholm a été marqué par le circuit proposé par Red Sightseeing; il nous a permis de connaître tous les points d'intérêt de la ville, et même de prendre le bateau en plus du bus. Nous avions des poussettes ce qui n'a pas posé problème puisque des coins sont prévus à cet effet. Un grand merci à IK grâce à qui j'ai pu récupérer mon portable oublié dans un des bus 🤞, encore merci pour ta patience et ton aide !! Laurie et bébé Meïze (comme Amazing 😉)

I had a great time on both the boat and bus. All the staff were nice and helpful, especially Sofia.

Underbar personal

Förutom att Skansen i sig själv är ett perfekt ställe att besöka med vänner och familj, då det finns så otroligt mycket att se, Men personalen (säkerhets vakterna) var helt fantastiskt, en av oss som var med skade sin fot och vi fick hjälp direkt, de hjälpte oss att binda foten och erbjöd oss att få låna en rullstol. Så att vi fortfarande kunna få uppleva prakten. Och vi fick även ett visitkort med nr ifall vi behövde någon mer hjälp under dagen. Alla personal som vi träffade var jätte trevliga och så hjälp samma. Jag starkt rekommendera Skansen!

Skansen och många djur

Skansen är en fin djurpark i Stockholms city. Min dotter på 1 1/2 älskade att kolla på alla djur som fanns där. Dock så var det lite dåligt väder men det fanns bra med stället att ta skydd när regnet kom fram. Tycker dock det är lite dyrt att gå in. Vi parkerade bilen precis utanför och det blev nästan dyrare än att gå in så ett tips för de som tar bilen in att parker Innan bron till Skansen. Finns ett litet tivoli vid akvariet som min dotter älskade men tyvärr så är den inte lika stor som när jag var liten.

Trevlig park

Själva djurparken och husen var roliga att gå och titta på. Djuren såg välmående ut och det kändes som att de gjort sitt för att inte låta besökarna störa djuren mer än nödvändigt. Det som drog ner själva besöket var att de extremt slitna karusellerna kostade 30kr per åktur. Både sniket och tråkigt med tanke på att det inte var särskilt billigt att gå in.

Skansen, ja vid bra väder

Skansen är en blandning av djurpark,lekpark,naturreservat,teater,dans,& hembygdspark med skådespelare Så helt klart värt ett besök men vädret spelar stor roll för upplevelsen. Som vanligt vid sådana här inrättningar så är priserna på mat och dyligt något högre men det är helt okej att ha med sig eget om man önskar det

Alltid värt

Skansen är alltid värt ett besök och vi alla uppskattar det. Dock skulle vi uppskatta om de sångaktiviteter som erbjuds också skulle kunna anpassas till lite äldre barn?

Bra vid bra väder.

Skansen är trevligt att besöka när vädret är bra. Svårt att få någon riktig upplevelse bland djuren då många inte syns till. Vi lyckades se fjällräven och renarna samt ett pat älgar. Men att se Allsång med årskort är alltid ett plus.

Alltid fint på Skansen

Mycket att titta på både i de historiska miljöerna och bland djuren. Efter lite spaning fick vi syn på både lo och fjällräv. God mat på restaurangen strax innanför entrén. Dyrt.

Lappugglorna är ett måste!

Älskar Skansen så mycket! Fantastiskt open-air museum med både historia, lek och djur. Själv är jag för för djurparken, jag är en fotograf och deras lappugglor är så vackra! Mycket av mitt arbete är taget på Skansen. Min Instagram är @holmen_jacob om du vill se lite bilder och videor på deras djur. 10/10! Bra och prisvärt❤️

Fantastiskt

Vilket fantastiskt ställe! Vilket utbud. Barnens trädgård, alla djuren. Alla som jobbar där. Alla cafeer.

Cultural centre visit

What a fantastic place to visit! We only found out about the place while we were on a boat trip around some of the islands. We must have spent 4 hours here, it was a glorious sunny day but some of the attractions and animals were not available which was a shame but nevertheless we saw enough to get a feel of Swedish culture and learn a lot about the country. A great place for families to visit. It could be quite a challenge for people with mobility problems as there is a lot of walking and some of it quite steep

Hiding Wolverine

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit here. Plenty to see and do including Nordic animals (we saw arctic fox and moose, but the wolverine was hiding!). The staff were dressed up in several of the houses and told us about the history of the building or lifestyle of the worker. Some parts were being refurbished but this didn’t detract from the overall experience.

Musée de plein air très sympa !

Skansen est un musée de plein air à vocation ethnologique ainsi qu'un parc zoologique situé sur l'île de Djurgården à Stockholm. Il a été fondé en 1891 par Artur Hazelius afin de montrer le mode de vie en Suède durant les siècles passés. Il est très agréable de déambuler dans les allées du musée et découvrir les constructions des siècles passés, le zoo et ses animaux nordiques.

A lovely afternoon out which could easily turn in to all day

Really enjoyed our visit, sunny day probably helped! Loads to see and learn. Highlights were chips round a wood fire and the various handmade souvenirs available.

Skansen Open Air Museum

This is a large open air museum celebrating Swedish history. It is beautifully laid out and had a lot of things to see and do. Unfortunately for us, we'd been sightseeing all day and were becoming quite tired. We saw as much as we could before calling it quits. I'm sure if we had started our day here, it would've been more enjoyable. On our way out, we stopped at the aquarium and enjoyed the aquatic exhibits as well.

Fantastic even on a wintery date

Really enjoyed a day at Skansen museum. It was great to learn about the history and that the buildings has been preserved. Enjoyed an introductory talk from a lovely lady and a tour around the workshop which was really exciting. Many of the buildings were closed as it was a weekend day in Feb. But loved walking around. The animals were super cool as well and we learnt lots about the reindeer from a talk. Would love to return in the summer. Nice responsibly priced restaurant there to warm up in and some good gift shops. Highly recommend a visit.

Must see but allocate enough time - the museum is huge!

Skansen is a massive outdoor museum dedicated to Swedish history and life in Sweden. I’ll start with my regret of not researching this museum properly and not allocating enough time for the visit (I had less than 2 hours), I have visited off peak and it was beautiful and snowy, however many parts were closed (certain animals displays were not accessible) but regardless I had an amazing time and would go back in a heartbeat. Lots of interesting displays and family activities which can be done mainly outdoors so plan accordingly and dress properly. Highlight for me was seeing gorgeous reindeers and moose. The fish exhibit is also brilliant

So fun

Skansen is absolutely massive! It took me 3-4 hours exploring it all, and I learned so much about Sweden’s history and culture here!! There are some nice cafes/restaurants here, and I really liked the zoo as well :)

Approvato a pieni voti!!

Leggevo commenti contrastanti su Skansen, beh io avendolo visitato nel periodo natalizio, con i mercatini, con neve devo dire che mi è assolutamente piaciuto!! È bello sia per quanto riguarda gli animali che si vedono ma anche per le varie rappresentazioni che sono state riprodotte della vita rurale svedese!! Quindi posso dire di andarci e non ve ne pentirete!!

Unique open air museum in Stockholm

We visited Skansen Open Air Museum on a freezing cold day and the site was covered in snow. It was a magical showcase of Swedish culture, craft traditions, animals and architecture. The chapel on the site was interesting to look around as well as providing refuge from the cold.

Worth a visit if spending a few days in Stockholm

We visited this place with high hopes as we went at Christmas time and were hoping for a nice Christmas market. Unfortunately it was not as good as we hoped, as the place was quite muddy and due to the fault of our own we didn’t get to see much as we were there when it was dark. The Christmas market was good however it was not the best market I’ve ever been to.

Fantastic place!

Skansen is such a unique experience! It’s an open-air museum that showcases Swedish history, with traditional houses and people dressed in historical clothing. I loved learning about Swedish traditions and how life was like centuries ago. During December, they have Christmas markets and activities, which made it feel even more festive. The views from Skansen over Stockholm are also beautiful. It’s a great spot to visit, especially with the holiday spirit!

Bellissima ricostruzione, vale il viaggio!

Abbiamo trascorso qui più di 4 ore…e senza bambini! Ci è piaciuta molto la ricostruzione degli edifici del villaggio ma anche degli ambienti interni. E l’atmosfera natalizia ha conferito alla visita una magia in più, grazie ai canti natalizi e al mercatino di Natale. Unico appunto la poca attenzione per rendere più sicure le strade ghiacciate: siamo capitati in un giorno particolarmente freddo e in alcuni punti era davvero pericoloso…basterebbe spargere un po’ di ghiaietto in più…

A lovely day out

We have a lovely day out at Skansen. We took our time visiting and spent 5 hours at the park. There is lots to see, old town, farms, school house, post office, zoo, aquarium, Nordic sea centre and of course the Christmas market in the centre. Staff in the houses, shops and businesses were in character and told us something about what life was life in the era. Very interesting chatting to the school teacher about life in 1910. Was market was lovely, a good mixture of food and trinkets stalls. Reasonable enter price. As most of the day is outside is good to dress well for the weather. Plenty of places to get snacks, meals or drinks.

Wonderful experience

We really enjoyed our visit. It may have helped that it was minus 5 and there was snow on the ground, but it is a beautiful setting. Some of the farmsteads have actors who tell you what life would have been like in the appropriate era. The zoo aspect was also really good (although the reindeers were sadly missing - urgent business at the North Pole perhaps). The signage is decent and we found a quirky old cafe for soup and a sandwich. We then visited the Baltic Sea Science Centre which was well designed and informative. Unfortunately we were too late to visit the aquarium. All in all a fantastic day out.

Worth a Full Day to Visit!

I only had 90 minutes here and only saw the 'Town Centre' area, which was crowded. Quite interesting how so many recreated homes and businesses sold items they made. Definitely we need half or a whole day to enjoy, and even then, we won't be able to properly see everything!

Consigliato

Consigliato. Un museo all'aperto che ti porta indietro nel tempo, non era sicuramente il periodo migliore per andare, alcune "casette" erano chiuse e l'orso era in letargo. Abbiamo pagato 20€ a testa circa. Ne vale la pena

Skansen Srockholm

Very large area in the walking distance from historical City Centre, historical architecture and zoo. There are employees in historical costumes in the historical buildings. Very interesting, it is possilbe to spend whole dey there.

Great Views

I really enjoyed my visit to Skansen. The views of the surrounding area are amazing. I absolutely loved viewing the animals, especially the bears!

Loved it, even in winter

Great open-air museum that has something for all, it was like walking through the history of Swedish culture. Detail of buildings very impressive, located over a large area, you need many hours to see everything, think during summer it would have been a better vibe with tourist numbers and cafes and shops opened. Still loved it even in the cold and would highly recommend visiting, after Vasa Museum this was the next best thing to do in Stockholm.

Esperienza fantastica nel polmone verde di Stoccolma

Bellissimo museo all aperto alla portata di tutti ! Per vedere le scimmiette devi pagare a parte! C'è anche un acquario!

Skansken

The park is very big, but beautiful. Sincerely recommend coming with your kids, friends or family. There are many stores. The staff is very friendly. My favorite places there where the church, a very nice and historical place, and the aquarium, where you could see lots of fish, shells and more.

An amazing open-air museum in the heart of Stockholm

What an amazing open-air museum. We needed a full day to explore and would recommend only a non-rainy day! So much to see and learn about. Talented and knowledgeable actors in full costume are waiting in each of the historical houses. Their English was absolutely perfect and they were so helpful. The range of animals in the zoo was brilliant - loved the monkeys and the bears in particular. The one eating area that was open was great - traditional Swedish food in a relaxed outdoor setting. It's a shame you have to pay extra to go in one of the aquariums but would definitely visit again.

An open air Musuem of Sweden

Skansen is an open air musuem, its huge, so make sure to follow the map they provide otherwise you will just keep roaming randomly, and might miss on some of must see spots. There is even a zoo here but it has separate ticket other than the entrance one, so we skipped it. We visited in March, and most of it was empty, but due to winters greenery was also scarce. You will find some cute and colorful old swedish houses here, so make sure to click a picture with those. There was a cafe which we found, and couple of bakeries but unfortunately all were closed :( might be due to season , but we didnt expected all things to be closed at this time. Overall I would say if you have an extra day, and you dont want to lie around in your hotel room, come here, you can spend some good time, but be ready to walk a lot, as I said park is huge.

carina

Visita piacevole in una bella giornata di sole come ho fatto io, se però avete poco tempo a disposizione e volete vedere altro questa è una meta che potete trascurare

Wonderful day

This outdoor museum is a must see. It is set on a hill but access to the top is via an escalator if you’re mobility is limited. The exhibits of Swedish life are absolutely fascinating and very interactive. The walking is pleasant with lovely views and children were well catered for. The Nordic Zoo is more like a safari park , the information provided is very informative and the animals so well cared for. We were there for 6 hours and could have spent longer,

Très sympa mais plutôt en ete

Visité par un temps de pluie abondante donc mon avis mitigé ne correspond qu'à ce moment pluvieux. Sinon en ete ce la doit être super agréable. Manque un peu d'indications sur la logique de visite. Beaucoup d'attractions fermées sûrement du à la période.

Large, interesting Folk Park.

A huge park with many examples of early life in Sweden. Very enjoyable. Just make sure you allow plenty of time to see everything.

Che meraviglia !

Il primo museo all'aperto al mondo, risalente al 1891 e creato da Artur Hazelius. Una meraviglia a cielo aperto! All'interno del parco è presente anche uno zoo e vi sono diverse aree tematiche e storico-culturali decisamente interessanti. Consigliamo assolutamente una visita qui.

Eeeh Mercééé Skansen 🇸🇪

Le musée est très bien situé sur l'île où se trouve tout les musées. Accessible à pied (10min) mais aussi en tramway. L'intérieur du musée est magnifique, le décors incroyable, il y a le côté zoo assez sympa mais aussi un côté maison ancienne. Certaines maison sont vivantes avec des intervenants 👍 A faire absolument.

a voir

c'est à visiter en hiver pour la magie et les légendes nordiques. Petit regret tant à la partie historique, bien trop simple. On aimerait en savoir plus. Dans l'ensemble, c'est à faire.

Flot friluftsmuseum

Dejligt friluftmuseum i flotte omgivelser med nordiske dyr - også de store af slagsen. Giver et godt indtryk af levevis de sidste 300 år. Godt for børnefamilier og alle os andre. Kan varmt anbefales. Forvent at bruge 3-4 timer.

Wonderful Nordic Animals

Cost 245 SEK (£18-27) From Stockholm Central we got the metro to Slussen and then the 82 ferry to Allmanna grand and walked. We stayed around 4 hours - the Nordic animals are great - lynx, wolverine,moose,bison,brown bear, reindeer 🦌 The cages are massive so the animals seem well cared for 👏👏👏 We went on a Sunday as more open at the weekend. You pay extra if you want to ride the funicular railway. Lots of red squirrel 🐿️ running about. The actual Swedish houses are rather disappointing as in most cases you cannot go inside them.

1-2 Hours??? No way!!! Plan to spend 3-5 hours.

We visited Skansen as a family with a 20 year old son. It was September after the summer season, so not all the interpretive areas / shops were open. So we were a little bummed about that. There’s some room for improvement at Skansen. It’s an amazing and unique experience but many of the structures do not have any signs about age or location. For international travelers we don’t know the areas the homes came from so a regional map on signs would be helpful. More information about the conception of the park and its founder would be interesting to learn as well. It would be helpful to highlight the “Do not Miss” buildings so those with shorter time to spend could hit the best structures and not feel like they missed the important things. If you love architecture/ history then this is the place for you. Buildings date from the 13th century forward. It’s laid out geographically and somewhat chronologically. If you have small children they have a kids area, small zoo and science center. The interpreters we talked to were very happy to share their knowledge and pleasant.

Family Day VIsit

This place is quite expansive and has many small tours at varying locations throughout the day. Total time here can be half a day or a full day given how much there is to see. There are also a few restaurant options located throughout and at the southern entrance.

This is what Sweden looks like!

We went to the open air museum The Skansen and it was lovely! There are so many cute bakeries and small shops, houses, gardens and stuff to do. All staff members are really helpful and authentic. It is like a fairy tale and as back in the old days. We especially loved the huge animal section, representing all the Nordic animals. Impressive!

Superbe

Selon nous notre meilleur visite, grand parc ou l'on peut se promener, avec bâtisse d'époque, tout est calme. Il y a même un parc animalier et un aquarium franchement on a adoré

Great visit

Take the tram 7 to get there but be warned it fills up quick especially the later you go. Opens up at 10am but think I got there around 11am and spent all day there. Lots of walking, ups and downs, places to rest and enjoy. Several places have times of fairy tell readings or demonstrations to learn more about that particular era and which area of Sweden it is referring too. There are places to purchase food and drink and bathrooms. Great family atmosphere. I believe I seen a few dogs so they are allowed as well. Credit cards primary choice of payment for nearly all of Stockholm is cashless.

Ruheoase

Skansen lässt einen in das alte Schweden eintauchen. Die alten Häuschen sind meist liebevoll gepflegt und endlich konnten wir eine Elchkuh live erleben. Sogar mit Kälbchen. - Ein großer Kontrast zur sonstigen Stadt.

First trip to Stockholm, and Ed Sheeran

Open air museum and a zoo, mostly just the zoo. It has reindeer, magical reindeer. And their close relatives, the moose.

Great place for kids

Nice amusement park detailing some of the older buildings and experiences of the Swedish people before the world wars. More geared towards children but still a great experience
