Stockholm- A Beauty On The Water: Old Town Walking Tour and Boat Trip Combined

Welcome to one of Europe's largest and most vibrant castles. The castle is HM the King's official residence and essential parts of the monarchy's representation take place here, while large parts of the castle are open all year round. Located in Gamla Stan or The Old Town, The Royal Palace of Stockholm has more than 1,400 rooms, 11 floors, and only 1 balcony. The Palace is also the largest official Royal residence in Europe, even larger than Buckingham Palace in London. There are many attractions here - the Treasury with the royal regalia, Museum Three Crowns about the castle's medieval history, and not least the Representation floors with the pompous parade rooms. During the summer months, Gustav III's antiquities museum and the Castle Church are also open. The changing of the guards is popular with visitors, as is the Slottsboden shop.

During our walk through the city, you will also learn about Swedish inventors like Nobel, the entrepreneurs behind H&M and IKEA. We will pass the Spotify main office located in the entrepreneurial hotspot Urban Escape. Passing the statue of Gustav II Adolf, who in the 17th century commissioned the famous warship Vasa, we will enter the Old Town, one of the best-preserved medieval city centers in Europe.

What are people saying about Sweden

Elizabeth_M, Oct 2026

Do This!

This is a perfect way to get to know Stockholm. The trip is short enough to keep your interest but long enough to make it worthwhile. Gamla Stan was our favorite part of Stockholm so finding out “horrific secrets” was especially fun. Chris was an excellent guide. He was fun and informative and handsome with his ginger beard! Highly recommend this activity!

Stockholm: Walking Tour of the Old Town

Shannon_B, Oct 2026

Interactive and informative!

Interactive and so informative! I was worried about a 2.5hr tour while It was cold out. We kept moving and it actually went by rather quickly. I totally recommend this tour, we saw parts of Gamla Stan that we would never have found. I especially loved the stories behind the statues. Luve (sp?) was a wonderful guide!

Stockholm Food Tour

This was a fun way to spend some time in Stockholm. The tour guide (David) was knowledgeable, personable and clearly enjoyed talking about Sweden and the food scene. The weather was nasty but he made it fun! We were also lucky to be joined by others on the tour who ere fun!

Stockholm Archipelago Tour by Classic Wooden Boat with Guide

Linda_I, Oct 2026

I liked the length of the...

I liked the length of the tour. It was just enough to see the beautiful skyline of Stockholm, but also to travel travel further out from the city where you can enjoy greenery, open water and smaller islands. A suggestion was to sit on the left-hand side of the boat for slightly better views of interesting shoreline. In our favor, it was a beautiful day. It wouldn’t be as fun if it was rainy and windy.

Stockholm Private Golf Cart Tours

Suzanne_K, Sept 2026

Great way to get to know the city on Day 1!

Five stars. We had a rainy day in Stockholm, but it honestly didn’t matter — the tour was still so much fun. Willa was knowledgeable, easygoing, and had a wonderfully dry sense of humor that made the whole experience really enjoyable. He gave us a great introduction to the city, and it was the perfect thing to do soon after arriving because we got a feel for Stockholm without having to walk everywhere. One of my favorite touches was that he even took us to one of his favorite spots for fika, which made the tour feel much more personal. A really fun, relaxed, and informative way to see Stockholm. I’d absolutely recommend it.

Viking History, Runes & Countryside 9h Tour to Sigtuna & Uppsala

Danielle_T, Sept 2026

Tor and Viking History Tour--A+

This tour covers a lot of ground and history in nine hours and was the perfect activity for the last day of my visit to Sweden. Tor, our guide, was extremely knowledgeable, professional and pleasant. He also deftly adjusted times spent at each site resulting from traffic delays leaving Stockholm in the morning, so well that the full itinerary was met. There were eight of us in one van, so it was a small-ish number of people, which kept things personable (the van was at maximum occupancy and quite cozy inside, so keep this in mind if you have motion sickness). After visiting a number of Viking historical sites we had a free hour in Sigtuna to grab lunch and explore and finished up the afternoon at Gamla Uppsala and the Uppsala Cathedral and Castle. I do a lot of tours when I travel and one of the key factors of a great tour is the guide's passion for the topic and generosity with responding to questions. This tour is in the top of my favorites, primarily due to Tor.

Wonderful Sunny Day in Malmo

Traveling around Malmo with Lesly was amazing! She was so informative, kind and funny. You could see she truly loves what she does and that seeps into the experience on the tour. We got to experience many interesting parts of Malmo and eat some amazing foods. Would highly recommend this tour.

Stockholm Guided Archipelago Cruise Tour with Swedish Fika

Jeff_R, Sept 2026

What a beautiful cruise!...

What a beautiful cruise! Stunning views of the archipelago either up top with the wind in your hair or inside at a comfy café setting. The fika is a nice touch of course. A great way to kill 2 hours and see more than you might have otherwise. Kim was also super nice and funny while giving facts about the islands and some buildings as we passed by.

Best of Stockholm: Small Group Walking Tour (Max 10, 3 Hours)

Aninda_B, Sept 2026

Walking and knowing Stockholm

It was a wonderful experience. We had a small group comprising 7 people. And a knowledgeable guide. We read good reviews about him in the review section and quite lucky to have him as our guide in this walking tour. His name is August. He made our trip very informative and interesting. It is a must tour for first time visitors to know Swedish history and roam around central and old (Gamla Stan) Stockholm.

Kiruna Northern Lights Tour with Photographer

Nuria_V, Mar 2026

Highly recommended activity and company

Lights of Vikings is a smaller, family-owned company. The guides and other staff are awesome: super friendly, enthusiastic and good in communication. The activity itself (snowmobile) was so much fun. We loved every second of it. The guide took us on a beautiful trail with a little stop halfway to have a warm beverage and cookies. The snowmobiles were brand new and very comfortable to drive. An extra shout-out to Onur who promised us it would be fun and he was right: it was so much fun! Not only because of the activity but because he has a great personality and can make everyone enthusiastic about something. Great talent!
