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.

    Liis was a GREAT tour guide--Had so much fun exploring the city with her, going to the royal apartments--getting a taste of all the beauty and culture Stockholm has to offer. Would highly recommend this tour.

    Our guide took us to the desired spots in the city including architectural sights that we were specifically interested in seeing. We went to three different neighborhoods in the city within three hours and got everything we wanted out of the tour. Our guide even helped us with the dinner reservations for the weekend. Really recommend this company.

    My tour guide was Patrick. A Canadian living in Stockholm for 3 years, he was on-the-dot punctual to our meeting outside the Central Station. We passed through Gamla Stan, Vasastan, Östermalm, Sergelstorg, Drottninggatan, Kungliga Slottet, Stortorget, MedeltidsMuseet, Kungsträdgården, Stureplan and Hötorget in a very enjoyable 3Hr outing. We even had time to stop for Semla in typical Swedish Fika custom. Patrick was very knowledgeable and a pleasure to be with. He had no qualms answering any of my multitude of questions. He was very helpful with my train/subway travel questions and even walked me through some metro stations to admire the beautiful wall murals in the halls and boarding areas. I would highly recommend this gentleman to be your first impression of Stockholm or even on your repeat visits.
