This place is really worth visiting, it gives you the real feel of old Sweden. Must see, great for kids also! more

This place is good to go only if you have children. Based on the reviews here, and its high ranking among Stockholm attractions I was expecting a lot more. What I got was an attraction that tried to be everything, museum, theme park, zoo, shopping center, and restaurant. Unfortunately it wasn't much of any of these. It is over priced... more

I did not like the place very much as a walk through. The houses where not all open. Whatever you do do not go on the train around Skansen because it is not a TRAIN RIDE AROUND SKANSEN! You pay to go on the train and within like 7minutes you are back where you started from. The Zoos and animal... more

Skansen is a great place for all people- singles, older, families, friends, and couples. The museum is quite large and I would allow a half day or more to fully appreciate everything in the museum. There are several places for a quick bite to eat or to sit down for a meal, but you can also bring your own food... more

The most interesting thing about the place was the animals. After a lot of hard work we managed to spot the Wolverine which was curled up under a pile of logs! Wolves and bears were amazing to see. Reindeer and elk very cute. The place was packed with families and I think it was best suited to those with kids.... more

If I could do it again, I would skip this stop, particularly "out of season." We went on April 30, the last day before it really opened up. Consequently, we just walked from closed building to closed building, read the signs, tried to look through cracks in the door, and moved on. However, I don't feel that if the buildings... more

we were late getting to Skansen but we managed to see the excellent collection of buildings. Our card included the visit to aquarium and monkey exhibit. Most noteable were the Lemurs who were all standing up. We ate at the restaurant which has grt view of Stockholm . The food was reasonable but we had to quickly see the buildings... more

we went in Skansen on november 4, in the morning, and we like it so much. Little turists around, we went early enough, and anyhow park is just enormous. We enjoyed animals, in particular wolves and bears.We even met a free squirrel getting ready food for winter. Unhappily only one house was opened, we just look at others from the... more

This review is almost a year late, but better late than never. We went to Skansen December of last year, and the place was bedecked for Christmas. I imagine Skansen would be beautiful anytime of the year, but during Christmas, it becomes especially magical. The old-style homes are decorated as they were decorated in the past during Christmas, and the... more
