Our story

Sweden's Most Authentic Archipelago Experience.

Founded in 2023, SKS Tours is built on one belief — that the Stockholm archipelago deserves to be explored the way Stockholmers have always known it: slowly, warmly, and with genuine local storytelling.

How we started

Started in 2023, growing every season since.

SKS Tours began with a simple idea: pair Stockholm's deepest archipelago route with genuine Swedish hospitality — real fika, real craft beer, and a real local guide, not a recording. We partnered with the historic vessel M/S Vindhem, built in the 1980s, because we believe the boat itself should be part of the story, not just the transportation.

The Vessel

Aboard M/S Vindhem

Built in the 1980s and lovingly maintained ever since, M/S Vindhem is a living piece of Stockholm maritime heritage. Warm wood interiors, an open aft deck for spotting seabirds, and just enough vintage character to remind you that great journeys have always been about the boat as much as the destination.
