We added a couple of optional activities beyond ABBA The Museum and don't regret it. Good value for what was included, and the food recommendations from our guide were spot on.

Our trip to Stockholm was fantastic from start to finish. The hotel was clean and well located, and the guided visit to Fjällgatan viewpoint was a real highlight. Airport transfers were on time both ways.
