JOIN US ON OUR STOCKHOLM EVENING WILDLIFE SAFARI WITH MIDSUMMER MEAL!
Spend an evening in Stockholm’s beautiful forest, where you have the chance to meet the “other” locals — our resident wildlife! This safari includes a traditional Swedish midsummer meal.

In Stockholm, as is always the case in Sweden, nature is never far away. Just beyond the city limits are extensive lush forests and plenty of farming and agricultural land that are inhabited by a vast array of wildlife. Here, moose, deer, foxes, hares and wild boar roam undisturbed. Our Wildlife Safari runs during dusk, which is an optimal time to go in search of animals, and in particular, the “Kings of the Forest” (moose) who usually roam at sundown to graze and search for water.
Your guide welcomes you on board our small and comfortable minivan before heading out of the city and into one of Stockholm’s most wildlife-rich areas. Once out in nature and before starting the safari proper, get to know your safari companions and enjoy a traditional Swedish midsummer meal at an outdoor camp. Your knowledgeable guide takes this time to explain more about the habitat surrounding you and the animals that inhabit it.
You then navigate through rural landscapes characterised by traditional red cottages, classic manor houses, majestic forests and historical rune stones from the Viking age, searching for wildlife. We do so by van so as to cover a greater distance and increase your chances of spotting wildlife; we usually see at least three out of five of the animals mentioned, if not all five! Once the sun has set, you return to the city.
We offer open/scheduled departures and private departures.
