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
Spend the day with one of our local Stockholm hosts to experience the Swedish art of good living - you’re in Stockholm, of course, it’s going to be good.
You’ll explore the city together and see what you’d most like to (within reason of course; we can’t promise you’ll be able to spend the night at the Royal Palace but you can certainly have a look around this Baroque beauty).
Stroll through the colorful cobbled streets of Gamla Stan, complete with the medieval cathedral, then perhaps let the afternoon take a more bohemian turn and explore a trendy neighborhood like Södermalm.
Discover some secret spots that only a local can point you to - your host can’t wait to share with you their favorite places to eat, drink and hang out. Indulge in lunch at a spot that suits what you’re in the mood for - pickled herring, perhaps? - then take things down a notch and have fika.
This local past-time is all about slowing down and enjoying coffee, cake, and good conversation. The perfect opportunity to pick your host’s brains for more things to do in the city during the rest of your trip.

I really liked this full day tour. Magnus was an amazing tour guide. We had a walk through many places of Stockholm, both hidden gems and known touristic places, each having their own part of the history. I liked learning about how places looked like throughout the history and how everything changed until today. It was awesome as well since it was a sunny autumn day and we could see as much as possible of the city by foot.

Magnus was an amazing tour guide. We took a great walk covering all possible places full of history even though they might be some hidden gems of Stockholm that many don’t know about. As we rested for a bit for lunch and had coffee breaks it was great to learn about Swedish life, get recommendations about Stockholm sights as well as recommendations about travelling to other places in the world.

Magnus was amazing in providing us a walking tour of Stockholm. We only had a few hours during our cruise stop and Magnus helped maximize that time. We travelled into center city, and Magnus met us and took us to all the normal tourist highlights, and made sure we saw many "off the beaten path" areas. We would highly recommend him as a guide for a fun and interesting day
