How your day could unfold
A flexible, unscripted experience designed entirely around your interests. Your host will adapt the day based on what excites you mostWhat you’ll do
You’ll join one of our local Stockholm hosts for a jaunt around the city with one goal in mind, to discover its incredible (and incredibly diverse) art scene.
Can you think of any other city in the world where there’s light-up graffiti on the metro? We can’t. Stockholm is famous for its art underground, and your host will show you the art project which began in the 1950s on the metro and is still going strong today.
Then there’s Snosatra Graffiti Park, the largest graffiti park in Europe where the city’s most famous street artists, Huge and Mogul, have left their mark in a big way.
But it’s not all street murals and metro art - if your vibe is less contemporary and more classical fear not, Stockholm is home to a masterpiece or two as well.
We’d love to take you to a few metro stations to see a few of the most innovative installations, but from there it’s up to you if you’d like to explore the graffiti park, contemporary galleries, or stick with the old school (old masters, that is).

The tour covered art, history, and literature across the city. We were lucky to have a private guide who was native to Stockholm, well travelled, and held professorship in the local University in art history and literature. She exposed us to the subway art of the city, major historical sites, and then an hour guided tour in the National Museum. Charlotte was fluent in English and lots of fun as a person and guide. She geared the tour to our personal interests, and paced the tour well. One of the best guides we’ve had.

We were fortunate enough to have Charlotte as a guide. She is a university professor with expertise in literature and art history. She is a native who has travelled around the world as part of her education and knows of many museums and sights that we have experienced, to share and compare aspects. Charlotte has personal contact with curators at the National museum and we spent part of our three hour tour with her there. She speaks fluid English, knows America well, and is a vibrant, delightful and interesting person as well!

We had a truly personalized tour with Fayez, visiting Stockholm's eco-community, a graffiti village, and a premiere local art gallery in the commercial core. All along the way he provided insights into the cultural, social, and economic development of the city and answered our many questions. Fayez was knowledgeable and personable and helped us see many things we wouldn't have on our own!
