Kickstart your trip to Stockholm

What you'll do

Stockholm is ready to welcome you with open arms as you join one of our local Stockholm hosts to familiarise yourself with the goings-on in the city. You’ll learn how to navigate the city just like a local - no need to whip out your maps app.

Enjoy immersing yourself in the city and you’ll quickly forget that you’re a tourist as you get to know Stockholm’s personality, its landmarks, and hidden gems.

Your host is ready to show you to some of their favorite spots - whether that’s restaurants, hangouts or gems frequented by locals, you’ll get to see them from a local point of view.

They can’t wait to explore the city with you, sharing their recommendations and throwing some secret tips in too - like the best spot to have fika, just over there.

You could go with the flow and stroll through the city or opt for a more direct approach and squeeze in as much as you can with your few hours together. Whatever your vibe, we’ll stick to it.

    My husband and I really enjoyed this tour. Our guide, Fayez, was so knowledgeable and shared so much information about Stockholm with us. He was prompt and took all our questions. So nice having a private tour! We even got to experience the metro and bus while on the tour with him. A great value with personalized service. Thank you, Fayez. I highly recommend this tour.

    Fayez was a lovely tour guide who went above and beyond on our half-day tour of Stockholm. He gave us the basics and was also able to be flexible to make our four hours the best it could be. Thank you Fayez.

    Do this the day you get off the plane. No kidding, the best decision ever. We were shown some of the highlights of the city by a native of the city. Not only was it a great way to get oriented to Stockholm, but he gave us great tips on how to navigate the public transport, including ferries. He also told us some great stories of growing up in Stockholm and took us to his favorite Cafe. We've tried fiska at a couple other places but none were as good. Based on this tour I've been able to confidently plan my day and find my way around
