    Experience Christmas dinner on a boat in Stockholm

    A Christmas dinner on a boat in Stockholm is a perfect way to celebrate Christmas with colleagues, clients or friends. On board our archipelago boats you can enjoy classic Christmas food, beautiful views and an atmospheric environment.

    Choose between a 4-hour cruise through the Stockholm archipelago or an atmospheric Christmas party at the quay. Regardless of which option you choose, the boat is exclusively booked for your party.

    This is included in our Christmas table.

    Decoration

    We create the right Christmas atmosphere with decorations, Christmas ornaments and songbooks for schnapps songs. Everything is prepared when you step on board.

    Salon & outdoor deck

    Enjoy the Christmas table in our spacious salon or take a break on the outdoor deck with a view of the Stockholm archipelago.

    Christmas table & drinks

     We serve a traditional Swedish Christmas table with classic favorites. Drink packages are available as an option.

    Archipelago tour

    Combine the Christmas table with a boat trip through the Stockholm archipelago or Lake Mälaren, depending on the weather.

    Entertainment

    Continue the evening with a DJ, karaoke or quiz. We are happy to help create the right atmosphere for your party.

    An evening in the Stockholm archipelago

    The evening begins with mingling before the Christmas buffet is served in an atmospheric environment on board. If you choose a cruise, we set off and glide out among the winter magic of the Stockholm archipelago or the sparkling waters of Lake Mälaren. If you prefer a Christmas party at the quay, the same wonderful Christmas atmosphere awaits with the boat as a unique and private party venue.

    During the evening, a classic Christmas table with tasty food and drinks will be served. Of course, there is the option of schnapps and carols to further enhance the atmosphere, regardless of which option you choose.

    We take care of the details

    We take care of everything, from Christmas decorations, sound and lights to songbooks for the schnapps carols. This makes your company Christmas table or private Christmas party easy to plan and execute.

    Want to turn the evening into a real party? We're happy to arrange a DJ or playlists to suit your group. With sound, lights and entertainment, the evening can continue long after the Christmas table has been set.

    A Christmas dinner at sea in Stockholm is an experience you will never forget.

    What our customers say

    Many thanks to Strand rederi for fantastic service and the best possible execution of the trip with M/S Ambiance in connection with a wedding in the family! Special thanks to skipper Erik for the nice hospitality! We can really recommend this.

    Maria Ragna

    We had an absolutely magical evening at our 60th birthday party. We would like to thank Strand Rederier AB for being so professional and flexible. We were 75 people on board (just right) and Dj Gorgin (recommended by the shipping company) knew exactly how to get everyone on the dance floor. It was perfect to be able to circulate between the upper and lower decks, with the music in both places. Thanks to all the staff who worked and made our evening such a success!!

    Ulrika Ekfeldt

    The 60th birthday party was very successful and appreciated with this boat trip! Professional, accommodating and smooth everything and nice crew. We sat on the sun deck and got to see Stockholm from the water, in sparkling May sun. Highly recommend this shipping company.❤️

    Cecilia Björnekull

    Captain Einar and his crew were amazingly helpful to our group of English speakers, heading out to the archipelago for the first time.

    I visited Stockholm with friends over the summer and had the best time ever on this party 🥳 boat!

    Senait Kibreab

    We hosted a bachelorette party at Strand Rederi and it was unforgettable. We cruised around Stockholm on one of their beautiful boats and the service was great! Their boats are perfect for any event whether it's a summer party, birthday or a kick off for a company. I highly recommend!
