What are people saying about Stockholm

Pat_B, Aug 2026

Pleasantly Surprised

Outstanding experience. Marta, our tour guide, was very passionate about her job. She provided us with a great deal of history about the ship, Vasa. Found her to be very knowledgeable and entertaining. She made it interesting. Took time to answer our questions. Was able to navigate thru the crowds. Highly recommend.

The Original Stockholm Ghost Walk and Historical Tour - Gamla Stan

James_B, Aug 2026

Definitely a lot of...

Definitely a lot of walking, including on uneven cobbles and curbs as well as stone steps and terracing. High energy, historic stories and locations where executions, executioners, assassination attempts and crypts, catacomb rooms were once employed. Throw in some warm fuzzy reflections on the black, bubonic and pneumonic plagues and you walk away delighted. Hats off to Reese for a paced traverse across Gamla Stan at dusk. I enjoyed the restaurant meal option, too, as it was within staggering distance to my hotel.

Walking Tour Of Stockholm

A fun tour giving lots of background to Stockholm as well as information about the Old Town. Guide (Viola) was excellent. She engaged very well with everyone and made all the facts interesting. We came away knowing lots more than we did before the tour, and enjoyed the coffee stop too. Recommended.

We had a wonderful time....

We had a wonderful time. Olof did a great job and was very informative. We were in a group of seven people in a van which was perfect. We would not have been able to see these sights by foot or easily with public transportation and the large bus tours would not have been able to cover as many places in a day.

Sally_T, Aug 2026

Do this tour.

The best tour ever. Max, our driver, was knowledgeable, funny and very accommodating of our requests for photo ops. He showed us the "hot spots" but also took us to places that our friends (on their 4th trip to Stockholm) had never seen. The cart was comfortable and we could hear Max's narrative easily. Highly recommend!!

A Must Do Boat Trip around the Arcapelago

Amazing trip around the Arcapelago. So informative and interesting. Our guide Paula was extremely knowledgeable, enthusiastic and entertaining. She was happy to answer all our questions and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. The trip of course was enhanced by the beautiful weather and stunning scenery. We will certainly be recommending this trip for our friends. Fantastic experience

This tour was the best!...

This tour was the best! It was a beautiful boat and a beautiful day! We really enjoyed the ride and learning more about Stockholm. The only negative was that the boat was slightly overcrowded. My party got to sit together but those that got on last had to split up. I would highly recommend this activity on your next visit to the city!

Great tour with an amazing tour guide.

This tour was an amazing way to relax while also learning about the city. The tour guide Daria was very friendly and great at engaging the tourists with fun facts as well as in depth history of the city. There were friendly staff on board with a fully stacked bar and bathrooms. Indoor seating also made it possible to take the tour on days with poor weather.

Great way to spend an hour.

The crew are very enthusiastic and get right into it. The tour leader had lots of great information and it was a very pleasant time. There are general knowledge competitions, karaoke and lots of laughing. If you just want one of those full of information tours with no fun or humour, don't take this one.

The Vasa

This was a terrific tour that provided many unknown facts about the sinking of the Vasa ship in 1628, very well preserved and allowed for a better understanding of the events during construction, the limitations and resulting in its sinking immediately after being released on its maiden voyage. Well worth taking in to better understand the circumstances surrounding the the Vasa’s sinking

Janet_C, Jul 2026

Great Food Tour!

The Stockholm Small Group Food Tour with 7 Classic Food Tastings is an absolute must-do when visiting Stockholm. The food was delicious, plentiful, and offered a great introduction to Swedish cuisine. Our tour guide, Iggy, was incredibly knowledgeable and shared far more about Sweden’s history and culture than we expected. He also provided excellent recommendations for things to see and do around Stockholm, which made the rest of our trip even more enjoyable. What stood out most was Iggy’s genuine passion and love for Sweden. It was evident in the way he spoke about Stockholm’s history and traditions, making the experience both informative and engaging. The tour was truly lovely, and I would happily do it again, especially if I had the chance to bring more friends to Stockholm. Highly recommended!

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!
