Great tour of old town Stockholm. Gamla Stan. - The tour was well planned and the guide was well informed and was able to relate her knowledge to us. She was very friendly and we could hear her well. The tour was in a great part of the city, very historic, Gamla Stan.

Engaged tour in Old Town - We had a really good guide. He was dedicated and knowledgeable, and good at the logistical aspect by leading so many people through the narrow, densely populated street run. This tour is recommended!

Interesting and will worth doing - Our guide was a university student and he was enthusiastic in talking about Stockholm, it’s history, and some of the characters that have played roles in the city. The old town was full of surprises and the stories that our guide relayed only improved the experience.
