Tips & Advice
- Book your preferred date and time well in advance, especially for evening dinner cruises, as they are popular for holiday celebrations and tend to fill up quickly.
- Arrive at Lilla Bommens harbor at least 15-20 minutes before departure to allow ample time for boarding and finding your seats.
- Dress warmly in layers, as the archipelago can be cooler than the city, even with the festive onboard atmosphere.
- If you have specific dietary needs or allergies, contact Stromma directly when booking to inquire about accommodations for the Christmas buffet.
- Consider the lunch cruise for a more relaxed daytime experience or the dinner cruise for a romantic evening with live music.
