Jump on your self-balancing scooter, it’s time for an expedition! The destination? The island of Södermalm where you'll see the local hipsters in their natural habitat. Being both a lively city district and an island in the city center, Södermalm is like a destination within a destination, and well worth the visit.
You’ll begin by jumping aboard a self-balancing scooter in the Old Town and hit the bike lanes, crossing over the bridge to Södermalm. You'll be met with busy restaurants and cafes, quiet streets and beautiful architecture. They are plenty of opportunity for photos when the tour stops to enjoy many of the viewpoints the islands offer. Not to mention that Södermalm is the tallest island in Stockholm, therefore offering some of the best lookout points in the city.
Continuing along, you’ll zigzag your way through quiet residential areas and lively shopping districts, such as SoFo, Stockholm's equivalent to SoHo. This lovely area is characterized not only by its boutiques, but also by wooden houses, vintage shops, tattoo parlors, and great parks. Looking for the only Biergarten in town? You’ll cruise by it so you will know where to go later for a beer-with-a-view. If local Swedish brews are what you’re after, the guide will happily point you in the right direction of an extremely popular local phantom brewery.
