Go early! It opens at 8:30 a.m in the summer. We tried to go at 12:30 and the line was awful. Cruise ships were in. We wouldn't have been able to see anything. So we went back the next day at 9:00. Perfect.
Take the museum tour to get the full story of the centerpiece of the museum, the Vasa ship. Do note that the Vasa Museum is BEHIND the Nordic Museum. We mistakenly thought that the ship was in the Nordic Museum as it was located on approximately the same spot on our map.
I expected: boring but earnest museum about some ship. It was actually breathtaking - an actual and gigantic 1628 Swedish warship, recovered and restored, with a range of associated exhibits, tours, displays (and a cafeteria). Unexpectedly amazing.
interesting but not deserving of all its accolades. the Nordiska Museet (esp when it's free) was far more interesting, and if you happen to be going to Oslo, the Fram and Kon-Tiki Museum are far more interesting and informative, as far as "ship-y" stuff goes. (the Viking Ship Museum is just okay).
It's important to watch the movie before the visit, there are several free guides that accompany you during the tour (check for your language and timetable on the web site). Audio guides are also available throughout your smartphone at the museum website and the free wifi connection.
Wonderful Vasa museum is a must to visit, if only the one.
“Friendly and helpful staff. Excellent location: right in the middle of all the sights of Stockholm. Wonderful classic hotel. Make it a point to buy a Stockholm pass to see all the sites hassle free. They will ship the cards and guide to you before your trip so that you can decide what to see. Do not miss the Vasa museum.”
