This seven-day itinerary covers central Stockholm neighborhoods and two day trips outside the city. It begins in Gamla Stan and clusters nearby areas on Djurgården, Södermalm, and Östermalm to reduce travel between sites. Later days handle separate excursions to the archipelago and Drottningholm before ending on Skeppsholmen.
One week covers the main districts and one archipelago day without rushing. Group visits by area and use the metro and ferries for short hops between islands.
