Archipelago Tours - SAS

Most of Waxholmsbolaget’s routes start at Strömkajen in Stockholm, but
some also depart from Vaxholm and Stavsnäs. From here you can make
day trips or longer trips. Regardless of your choice, we recommend you
get Waxholmsbolaget’s Boat Hiker’s Pass. Together with the pass you will
receive a map showing three great trips in various parts of the archipelago.
Follow them in detail or just “pick the cherries on the cake”.
The Northern Fairway
You travel via Vaxholm through Roslagen. Half way there, the fairway
divides and you can choose between classic destinations like Fejan, Idö
and Arholma in the north, or Saltkråkorna’s Norröra, Rödlöga and Svartlöga
in the outer archipelago.
The Mid Fairway
This is where the archipelago is broadest, with an abundance of islands
and boat tours. From Stockholm and Vaxholm you can reach islands like
Grinda, Gällnö, Möja, Finnhamn and Ingmarsö. If you are looking for
something a little more adventurous, why not hop between the different
tours and boats using the boat hikers’ rowing boats.
The Southern Fairway
Along the Southern Fairway, the open sea is never far away. In the larger
bays, towards well-known destinations like Nåttarö, Rånö, Utö, Fjärdlång,
Ornö and Strindberg’s Kymmendö, you can feel the swell.
Become a boat hiker and protect the archipelago
Boat hiking is a caring form of tourism. It promotes an active
archipelago. We will donate five Swedish Crowns from your
Boat Hiker’s Pass to The Archipelago Foundation’s project
”The Living Archipelago”, aimed at long term management and
protection of the unique flora and fauna in the archipelago.
The Boat Hiker’s Pass
• The Boat Hiker’s Pass costs SEK 340 and is valid for 5 days on all
our boats as well as the Cinderella boats.
• The pass becomes valid from your first boat trip. That means you
can purchase it well in advance and plan your trip with the help
of all the information you receive when you get the pass.
• If you already have a 30-day travel pass with SL, you can buy
Waxholmsbolaget’s Additional Pass for SEK 560. It is valid for
30 days on board all our boats, as long as your SL Pass is valid.
• You can also buy a Cash Card which you can load with cash and use
as payment on every trip. The advantage is that you are then given
a 25 % discount. You pay SEK 750 and we load it with SEK 1,000.
• Observe that all passes and cards must be activated in the ticket
machines on board the boat on every trip. The machine will print
out a ticket, which you hand over when you disembark.
• The first time you buy one of these cards you pay a deposit of SEK
40. The card contains a chargeable chip that should not be thrown
away. Once you are finished with it, hand it back to us and we will
refund you.
• All information as well as passes and cards are available at our
terminals at Strömkajen in Stockholm, and in Stavsnäs and
Vaxholm. The Boat Hiker’s Card is also sold at Sverigehuset in
Kungsträd gården and at several tourist offices in the archipelago.
