Taste of Trosa

5 Days / 2 locations in Sweden

A charming and relaxing experience in a harmonic and picturesque setting.

Trosa is a traditional archipelago village with a lively, historic town centre, busy marina, and an admired archipelago on its doorstep. This package allows you the chance to enjoy a convenient short break to this small seaside haven using the direct bus connection from Stockholm to Trosa. Accommodation in a genuine setting at the Stadshotell, gourmet dining and spa visit add to this relaxing and truly enjoyable break from the big city.

There is never a dull moment in Trosa - wandering its picturesque streets, enjoying a moment in a waterside cafè, strolling alongside the winding river, shopping in the small, personal boutiques ensure you return with lasting memories of Trosa. Plus the included archipelago boat tour, and cycle tour to Tullgarn Palace allow you to also enjoy Sörmland’s beautiful and varied nature.

Trosa Stadshotell is a modern, family-owned hotel with genuine charm and atmosphere from times gone by. It is newly renovated with a lovely sunny courtyard – wonderful for watching the world go by.
