Informative and interesting tour of Gamla Stan
We took the Old Town Tour of Stockholm with Kiki - she was a wonderful and experienced guide. She knew all the historical information, was able to show us interesting things about living in the time, and gave great recommendations for visiting/tours/restaurants in Stockholm today. Well worth the time to get an overview and the historical background - it always helps to appreciate what you are seeing when you know more about it and the past.

A very interesting walking tour
Friends
We had a lovely girl guiding us around Tbe Old Town in Stockholm, she was a terrific guide, with a colourful character, enormous amount of knowledge which she delivered with humour and clarity.
Sadly I cannot remember her name. it was something like Valentina and she had only been in Sweden a short time, which amazed us considering her knowledge.

Excellent
The title says it all. That was down to the tour guide.

Sarah was everything that one should expect from a tour guide. She was enthusiastic, energetic and incredibly knowledgeable. Add to that, that she was able (comfortably) to conduct the tour in both German and English and you will appreciate how pleasant a walk through the old town was.

The tour started at an oak tree and ended at the Riksdag. There was also time for a fika in the middle. I definitely recommend the kanelbulle at Bröd & Salt. Though I may well have a mild addiction to them (now) thanks to Sarah.

I could go into specifics on the tour, that would spoil the tour though. I'll just leave pictures.

This tour was an excellent way to spend at least 2 hours of time (may have been closer to 3) in Stockholm. The old town is beautiful and Sarah enhanced the enjoyment with her added knowledge.

Brilliant intro to Gamla Stan
Family
Our tour of Gamla Stan with Kiki was brilliant. Luckily for us, we got a private tour and we couldn’t have enjoyed it more. Kiki is knowledgeable and good fun, and taught us everything there is to know about the old town, and then some. If anything, we found the tour much too short! Had it lasted twice as long, we would have happily walked across town with her well into the afternoon. She answered our every question, recommended sights and restaurants, and nailed it. We’d say this tour with Kiki is an absolute must upon arrival to have a feel of Gamla Stan before exploring the city at large. Highly recommended.

Fabulous historic tour
I was very lucky to have a private tour as it was just me and the guide. The guide was brilliant - full of lots of historical and interesting facts about Stockholm and Sweden. Definitely recommend taking this tour if you have 2 hours to spare. You’ll see and learn so much about Stockholm’s old town.

Walking tour of Gamla Stan, Stockholm
Novena met us promptly at 1800 and told us we were the only 2 on the tour. She was extremity knowledgeable and took us all over Gamla Stan pointing out so many interesting facts and sights. She was very friendly and went at out pace answering all our questions in excellent English. Would definitely recommend this trip and definitely Nevena.

Wonderful Experience with Old Town Stockholm walking tour.
Family
We had the best time with Phillip during the Old Towne Stockholm tour. It was a nice pace, perfect amount of time, beautiful day, beautiful city and Phillip tailored our tour based on our interest. He had interesting stories and facts about the city. Even my Swedish husband learned more about Sweden and Stockholm history.

No guide

We arrived early to the meeting point. No one was there. Called the local office and was told to expect a return call. No return call, no email, nothing. The tour may be wonderful but it only works if the guide shows up. I called Viator and was told the local company was already aware of the problem and were setting up their own internal investigation. That’s great, but the company made no effort to offer us another tour or a refund. Poor customer service.

Quince was a great tour guide!
Couples
We were the only 2 people on our tour at 10am on a slightly rainy day this past weekend. Quince brought us all around the Old Town and was a delight. She was well informed on the history and could answer all of our questions. So happy that we were able to get a tour with her.

Tour Guide KIki.
Friends
My guide for the tour had only two persons, makes for the best experience, we made the tour a lot quicker. With on the move info with the area, also posing political questions and ideas for the future of Stockholm.
A main point when doing tours coming into the winter period is to be comfortable, clothing and shoes very important to be able to enjoy to info coming your way.
