Creator's Key Takeaways

Stockholm truly is a gorgeous city.

For senior and solo travelers, Stockholm is one of the safest cities in Europe, and I found everyone friendly and helpful.

I love getting out early when exploring cities because at this time in the morning, the streets were somewhat empty.

The trip started out wonderfully, but later took a turn for the worse.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Stay at a place with easy walking distance to the metro or Gamla Stan.
For anyone with limited mobility, know that cobblestone streets have uneven surfaces.

YouTube Video Description

On a recent trip to Stockholm, I had one day to explore the city. Stockholm is chock full of gorgeous historic architecture, lining cobblestone streets, and surrounded by waterways. It is a beautiful city with much to see and do. In my 24 hrs exploring, part of it was consumed by pouring rain. However, I managed to see many sites in the morning and afternoon, including Gamla Stan, the Gustaf Vasa Church, Riddarholmen Church, the Parliament House, the Opera House, Kungstradgarden, the Royal Palace, St George & the Dragon Sculpture, Järnpojke, and the Storkyrkran. I also joined a walking tour that was focused on the Vikings. There is a rich history in this city. It seems Stockholm is somewhat of a best kept secret in Europe! @seniorsolotravel Facebook Travel Forum: https://www.facebook.com/groups/443309331791413 Senior Solo Travel Website: https://www.seniorsolotravel.net/ Visit Sweden Website: https://visitsweden.com/ Walking tour booked through Viator.com Scandinavian & Baltic Trip videos: Vilnius: https://youtu.be/FL8f7rP7qP8 Air Baltic-Economy: https://youtu.be/lhokVU-Xw_U Riga: https://youtu.be/ZPPP943sEds Lux Express Coach-Tallinn to Riga: https://youtu.be/l5_fMoGlSHQ Tallinn: https://youtu.be/IVK_vsC4OY0 Helsinki to Tallin Ferry: https://youtu.be/EzeAn1C4FvM Helsinki: https://youtu.be/lR6o6URJ3lM Stockholm-Helsinki Overnight Ferry: https://youtu.be/TTVAlq-92yE Stockholm: https://youtu.be/jUeo-BJ4WjI Flamsbana Railway from Flam to Myrdal: https://youtu.be/fJRTT2OE0Hg Bergen to Flam by Train, Bus & Boat: https://youtu.be/iNzn6c1x7JY Bergen: https://youtu.be/gkx1WQU-AZU Ponant Le Bellot Cruise Experience: https://youtu.be/kI93RZC4P_k Norwegian Cruise: https://youtu.be/Q0cEDFZo_m8 Oslo: https://youtu.be/_0GUWomILjo Copenhagen to Oslo Overnight Ferry: https://youtu.be/yVSIaNrj2AI Malmo, Sweden: https://youtu.be/ebgBHybtGjA Copenhagen: https://youtu.be/1is7PDVwI8k Please subscribe and turn on notifications to follow more of this Scandinavian and Baltic journey, including Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.
