The best private layover tours & experiences with locals

If you have a lengthy layover in the Swedish capital, there’s only one thing to do: Take it as an opportunity to explore! Don’t worry about navigating Stockholm’s unfamiliar streets on your own, because on City Unscripted Stockholm layover tours, you’ll have a local guide to take control (not to mention make sure you get back to the airport on time!). A layover might not be anyone’s favorite part of a long flight, but Stockholm airport layover tours can certainly change that. Your local host will whiz you into the heart of this storybook city and give you a travel experience to remember in what little time you have. Will you take us up on our irresistible offer?

Nima met us at our hotel promptly at 9:00 AM. He had read our information previously sent to the tour company and recalled our likes/dislikes. He showed us local hang outs, local markets, gardens, a few historical markers. We stopped at a great place for coffee and Danish. He is very personable. He appeared interested in us as to what we did, our opinions etc. He was very compassionate as my husband had hurt his foot and was not able to walk fast, so he took his time, did not rush us and extended the tour by almost 2 hours. He helped us navigate public transportation and left us at the Vasa museum as requested and informed us how to catch a taxi and get back to our hotel. There was one spot that he wanted to show us that was not open. Nima also emailed us good restaurant recommendations per our request. It was an enjoyable day.
