Insightful tour of Gamla Stan! - Our guide, Kenzie, was super knowledgeable and made history come alive with great stories. What really stood out was how much she cared—always making sure we were comfortable and engaged. Highly recommended!

Nice walk - The guide knew a lot to tell and took the time to ask questions and there was plenty of space to take pictures. The walk was relaxed and just long enough.

Stockholm 2025 - As always, we wanted to do a guided tour on the first day so we could get know our way around the city and have some points to head back to. Buildings, museums, restaurants etc. Our guide met us at the start point and was there 10 minutes before the published departure time with a sign stating the tour name. This is so important as walking tour departure points are only approx. areas within 100m so trying to find someone in a wide, often crowded area, is not easy. We got going on time and shown various interesting buildings along with the history of them. We also got some back stories of people who had lived there over the years along with events that had taken place. We have never been disappointed with a city walking tour and this one lived up to our expectations. Well recommended, even if you have been to the city before.

I was back three days in Stockholm and every day I passed by Gamla Stan - In the old town called Gamla Stan, we find the Cathedral, Royal Palace, the Museo Nobre, the Nobel Prize Museum and the German Church, is a fabulous little island, must walk around the area. Fabulous.
