PEDAL PARTY
Gothenburg is sometimes nicknamed Sweden’s Amsterdam. It’s extremely walkable, but the best way to get around is by city bike. One rental company has more than 130 stations around town where you can reserve a two-wheeled ride.

FORTIFIED ADVENTURE
If you’re interested in the region’s medieval history, head to the 700-year-old Bohus Fortress, about a 20-minute drive from the city center. If you’re more into 18th-century opulence, take a tour of stately Gunnebo House and Garden, built as a summer villa for a wealthy merchant.
WANDER THE WEST COAST
If you want to experience rural Sweden, venture a little bit outside of Gothenburg and explore the wild and windswept Bohuslän coast. It’s dotted with rugged islets, rambling hiking trails and colorful little fishing villages — like Fjällbacka, where Ingrid Bergman used to spend her summers.
LOCAL CUISINE
Gothenburg is home to a well-known global food scene, and while fresh seafood dishes from the local fish markets are always a delicious bet, you can’t leave without treating your sweet tooth to something decadent. Stop by a coffeeshop or bakehouse and order a fluffy golden waffle topped with cream and locally sourced berries — you’ll be glad you did.
SHOPPING
Magasinsgatan is a design district in Gothenburg that’s packed with trendy boutiques selling homewares, fashion and even flowers, plus popular food trucks. And the main street in the charming Haga neighborhood is your go-to for indie stores offering handmade soaps, artisan crafts, and even Swedish clogs.
