What are people saying about Stockholm

Stockholm: Walking Tour of the Old Town

Dana_K, Jul 2026

Wonderful Overview of Old Town Stockholm!

We learned so much about the history of Stockholm with our guide, Johanes, who was extremely knowledgeable, humorous, kind, and personable. This is a lengthy tour that was fun and interactive—we enjoyed listening as well as being asked trivia questions about the history of Old Town. We saw the important statues in the area and visited a candy shop where they made fudge and peppermint candy canes that we could sample. The scenery was wonderful and we felt we learned so much. I would recommend this tour to anyone who visits Stockholm!

Stockholm Private Golf Cart Tours

Robert_D, Jul 2026

Best Way to See Stockholm

This was one of the best tours we have ever been on. Each golf cart has its own guide/driver and they hold a max of 5 passengers (we just had the two of us). My wife is a bit hard of hearing so she sat in the seat next to the guide and didn't miss a thing. The golf cart can cover so much more territory than a walking tour - we probably went to 5 or 6 six of the different islands in the Stockholm harbor. The golf cart can also go places were cars cannot. Our guide was greaat and very informative

Stockholm Archipelago Tour by Classic Wooden Boat with Guide

Christoforos_C, Jul 2026

Βoat trip in Archipelago to remember

It's a very good tour around the city of Stockholm and the Archipelago, for a visitor to understand the city! It gives another perspective, and probably is the first thing you have to do, so then can explore the rest of the city. The Italian tour guide was very friendly and informative!

Vasa Museum Guided Tour, Including Ticket & Guide

James_J, Jul 2026

Vasa a good chice

Make every effort to start the visit early in the day and with a guide. The inside lighting will cause a ghostly sensation after awhile. The exit location is confusing to discover. You will be amazed at how large the outside crowd attempting to enter is when you leave.

Stockholm Pizza Cruise - Explore Stockholm's Waterways

Janet_C, Jul 2026

Absolutely Romantic, Fun and Beautiful Views!

The Pizza Cruise was wonderful. We had a great time, and the experience was especially relaxing as we cruised along Stockholm’s beautiful waterfront. The DJ played an excellent selection of music, creating a lively and enjoyable atmosphere, while the servers were attentive, friendly, and genuinely kind. I will definitely take this cruise again if I find myself back in Sweden.

Great all day tour of Stockholm

Excellent tour. Hans, our guide, is a very nice guy. English excellent, very knowledgeable, and good sense of humor. We saw the various palaces, drove and walked all over city. All admissions and lunch were part of the trip. Hans even spent an additional hour on the tour and picked us up and dropped us off at our hotel which was out of city center. Highly recommend!

Stockholm Speed Boat 2 Hour Archipelago Tour

Paige_S, Jul 2026

Cold feet turned happy cruiser

I love boats and fast rides but for some reason was a little anxious getting on speedboat today! I spoke with Adam-our captain and he put me completely at ease. He was kind, knowledgeable, an excellent driver and also was able to think on his feet as the weather changed from pouring rain to sunshine in a mater of minutes. The tour was so much and informative and can’t recommend more! Adam was wonderful!

This Informative and Entertaining Cruise is a Tourist Must!!

Paula was a bubbly, enthusiastic guide who clearly enjoyed sharing her knowledge and love of Stockholm's beautiful Archipelego with all of us. She was entertaining and informative, responding to a variety of questions while imparting her extensive understanding of the archipelego's nature and history. A truly enjoyable and worthwhile experience.

Wonderful Stockholm Walking Tour

Our Stockholm walking tour with August was one of our best tours ever. August was extremely knowledgeable about the city's history, as well as the history of the country of Sweden. He kept everyone entertained and engaged. Our group of 9 was quite diverse and he managed to meet everyone's needs. If you have the opportunity to take this tour, we would highly recommend it!

Ghost Tour with Christoph

It was a great walk through the old town of Stockholm with our guide Christoph. He told us a lot of famous and interesting stories about the history of the town. His kind of story telling was very impressiv. Whenever you have the possibility to book the Ghost Tour do it. You learn so many exciting stories about Schwedish history!
