EXPLORE THE ALLEYS OF OLD TOWN


Join me on a fascinating walk through the picturesque streets and alleys of the Old Town and hear the story of why the city was founded right here on this island.

During the tour, you will pass some of Stockholm's most iconic sites, including the magnificent cathedral where the royals have held their weddings, the majestic Royal Palace, the Nobel Price Museum and the historic Stortorget where it all once began in 1252.

Curious about the must-sees of Stockholm? Let me guide you! Spend some hours with me for an unforgettable experience.After uncovering the hidden gems of the Old Town, we'll hop on a public ferry for a short sail between the islands to Djurgården, where another gem awaits – the renowned Vasa Museum.What’s the Vasa Museum, you ask? It houses the world’s oldest and most well-preserved ship – the magnificent warship “Vasa.” This ship was built in the 1600s when the Swedish Empire was a dominant power in Northern Europe.

A century ago, Södermalm was a poor district with small homes for workers. Today, it's a trendy area with restaurants and shops.

I'll show you lush environments and charming houses from the 1700s. You'll hear stories about the people who lived here.

We'll cross to Riddarholmen, where the church holds many Swedish kings' tombs, before heading to Gamla Stan’s golden streets
