Gothenburg Holidays

Just a short tram and ferry ride from the city centre, the southern archipelago offers a peaceful escape with car-free islands that feel a world away from urban life. Perfect for swimming, hiking, and relaxing by the sea, each island has its own unique character waiting to be discovered. Rent a bike, pack a picnic, and hop from one island to the next for a day of pure outdoor bliss. Don’t forget your camera, the views across the water are postcard-perfect, especially at sunset.

Thrill-seekers and fun-lovers of all ages will find something to love at Liseberg, one of Scandinavia’s most iconic amusement parks. With roller coasters, carnival games, live concerts, and magical Christmas displays in winter, there’s never a dull moment. During summer, the park comes alive with music and laughter, while winter transforms it into a twinkling wonderland. Try your luck at one of the famous chocolate wheel games—or simply indulge in the sweets without the gamble!

Step back in time as you wander the cobbled streets of Haga, one of Gothenburg’s oldest and most charming neighbourhoods. This historic district is famous for its well-preserved wooden houses, indie boutiques, and traditional cafés. Be sure to try a giant cinnamon bun, known as kanelbulle, at one of the cosy bakeries, it's practically a local rite of passage. Along the way, browse quirky shops selling everything from vintage clothes to handcrafted souvenirs.

As a coastal gem, Gothenburg is a dream come true for seafood lovers. From freshly peeled shrimp piled high on rye bread to tangy pickled herring, the flavours of the sea are never far away. Be sure to visit the iconic Feskekôrka, a beloved indoor market where the day’s catch is served with a side of local charm. The city’s food scene also shines on the fine dining front, with a growing collection of Michelin-starred restaurants and trendsetting Nordic eateries. If you're after something a little more laid-back, you can't go wrong with a hearty plate of Swedish meatballs or traditional herring with potatoes. And no visit to Gothenburg is complete without fika—a cherished coffee break paired with a sweet treat like a freshly baked kanelbulle. Wash it all down with a locally brewed craft beer or a shot of aquavit if you're feeling adventurous. Eating and drinking here isn’t just delicious—it’s part of the culture.
