The bucket-list things to do — and who runs each one.
Here’s the bucket list for your day ashore: the most extraordinary thing to do at each stop, who runs it, and how to book it direct — so you can weigh it against your ship’s excursion and pick what suits you.
In port at Sundsvall, the bucket-list move is Stenstan Stone City: Private Architectural Walking Tour. Below: 1 bucket-list things to do on a Sundsvall port day — worth weighing against whatever your ship offers.
Walk the grandest stone city in Scandinavia with a private local expert. Rebuilt entirely in stone after the 1888 fire, Sundsvall's Stenstan is a jaw-dropping open-air museum of late-19th-century bourgeois architecture — utterly bucket-list.
