Kiki had a number of interesting anecdotes from Stockholm history, and she offered useful advice about other sights, shops, restaurants, etc. We think she would be a very good guide for visitors interested in learning the basics of Stockholm's history. But we wanted more depth and more history, and Kiki sometimes struggled to answer our questions.
Excellent guide!! Relates history to today’s world - explains the relationship between the two. Very personable! Good sense of humor! On time start and finish.
Excellent walking tour on Stockholm's Old Town (Gamla Stan) with a superb guide (Ms. Kiki), who apart from the historical facts, gave us a witty account of factors and events that shaped Stockholm throughout the years. Not to miss!
This tour was excellent! Stockholm was very impressive. The guide was very knowledgeable. We highly recommend this tour.
Kiki is knowledgeable about the history within Gamla Stan. This small group tour had many points of interest, including bits of trivia information. Definitely worth your 2 hours.
Great tour with Kiki. Easy to find starting point; learned about the old Town and many recommendations of where else to go, where to eat, where to shop. Good pace, very informative!.
We really enjoyed the guided tour of Stockholm’s Old Town (Gamla Stan). Kiki is a knowledgeable guide who shares a lot of interesting information about the city’s history, along with practical tips for visiting Stockholm. We also appreciated that she pointed out which attractions are less worthwhile, helping us make better use of our time. The tour gave us a good overview of Gamla Stan and plenty of useful information for the rest of our stay. It was interesting and worthwhile.
Kiki was a great guide! She took our small group on a fantastic walk around Stockholm’s Old Town. She showed us the key sites and had great stories. The group had a lovely time together. She left us with a laminated recommendations card as a parting gift and I loved the extra touch. Thank you Kiki!
Very informative tour. Nice and easy walk around Old Town. Highly recommend, quick way to learn all about Stockholm and its history.
Kiki, will give you lots of historical facts but also gives you plenty of current information and is willing to help you out through out your stay .
We loved our tour with Kiki back in September. We had a small group of only four total, which really helped to be able to ask questions and appreciate the tour. She gave us excellent recommendations on places in the area to shop or eat, and perhaps more importantly places not worth going. Absolutely worth it. Thank you so much!
Kiki was fantastic. The walking tour highlighted parts of Stockholm we would never have found. Really interesting and fun.
Kiki is so knowledgeable, friendly and fun! This was a perfect tour to start our trip in Stockholm. She gave us so much insight and also lots of handy tips on what museums and activities to do and what to miss, and restaurant tips as well.
Kiki offers a very detailed history of the area with a quiet sense of humour. We enjoyed our tour and feel we learned a lot.
Kiki was our tour guide and was outstanding! She took us through Old Town at a good pace for us and was really knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this tour on your first day in Stockholm. It will make the rest of your trip more interesting because of what you learn on Day One.
A great tour. Loved the personal touch and small group atmosphere. Kiki our guide was great! She was very knowledgeable and shared a lot of info!
FANTASTIC tour! Kiki is an amazing tour guide. Lots of fun, so knowledgeable, patient with answering any questions; all at a great pace with some great suggestions of other places in Stockholm to visit, cafe and restaurant suggestions. I was honestly sad that our tour had to end! Thank You Kiki!
We loved this walking tour. We had a small group and the pace was just right. Kiki is very knowledgeable and helpful, and we learned lots about wonderful Stockholm that we wouldn’t have otherwise.
This tour was very entertaining and informative and a wonderful overview of Stockholm’s old town as well as some Swedish history. It was just the right amount of time and was a perfect introduction to Stockholm.
Kiki’s tour was excellent! Having a smaller group with someone so knowledgeable made it easy to ask questions and really understand what we were walking through. She had plenty of individualized recommendations for other places to check out, too. Highly recommend!
Our tour guide Kiki was amazing and had so much interesting information about what we saw, the history and the culture - we learned a lot and we thoroughly enjoyed our time with her.
The best, so knowledgeable and enjoyable. Hit the highlights + architecture, details, fact, fiction, history
Kiki was our tour guide and she was amazing! very knowledgeable and engaging! loved her enthusiasm!!

Our tour with Kiki was the best. She was like an old friend albeit first time we met. Informative. Fun. Full of interesting tidbits/stories/food recommendations It’s a great way to start your orientation to Stockholm. Hook ‘em
Fact filled waking tour through Gamla Stan led by Kiki - wonderfully informative, excellent pace and enjoyed it very much. Highly recommend Kiki!
Kiki was an outstanding tour guide! She is very knowledgeable and explains details about everything. In addition, she gave out a list of tips and things to try while in Stockholm. I wish other tour guides were as conscientious.
We LOVED our tour with Kiki. She told us so many interesting historical and cultural points in an effective tour that not only taught us about Gamla Stan but about Sweden in general. We generally like starting trips off with tours like these and Kiki was one of the best we've ever been lucky to tour with. Since she also lived in the US it was interesting to get her perspective on both cultures. Bonus points for the local suggestions she handed us at the end. Highly recommend!
This is a very enjoyable tour.Kiki is a great tour guide,very relaxed ,very informative and the tour goes at a nice pace. I would certainly recommend Kiki if you are looking for a tour of this lovely part of Stockholm.
This turned out as an almost private tour, we were only three guests. Our guide Kiki was very friendly and helpful and gave us a lot of useful advice, besides having a vast knowledge of history and of interesting tidbits which one does not find in general history books. The tour is about two hours walking over medieval cobblestones, quite tiring for us seniors, but we would not miss it!
Excellent tour guided by Kiki! Very knowledgeable and confident. She gave so many wonderful insights and clearly loved the history of Stockholm. Thank you for this great introduction to Stockholm!
Kiki took us on a wonderfully comprehensive walking tour of Gamla Stan. The two hours flew by even in the freezing wind. One of the best things we took away was her list of recommendations for restaurants, stores, and favorite spots. Wow. Once we tested one of her recommendations, we trusted them all, and were we ever glad we did! Thanks, Kiki. You made our stay!!!
Excellent tour, very impressed with the guides knowledge of the local history no she also pointed out things you wouldn’t pick up on by just walking around doing your own thing. We were only a small group of 2 so plenty of opportunities to ask questions and it was possibly a bit more relaxed than had it have been a larger group. Also good to know that the tour goes ahead even with 2 people. I’ve had other tours cancelled at the last minute because of a lack of numbers. I nice touch at the end was she gave us each a list of recommendations for good restaurants and local attractions along with the best time to go to avoid large queues. Totally recommend this tour.
Wonderful overview of both Gamla Stan and contextual Swedish history. Kiki has a solid knowledge of the history and a nice and informative way of communicating. She moves at a good pace; not to fast, not too slow. It was a great introduction for our first day in Stockholm
We've learned to do these history tours early in our trip and Kiki did not disappoint. She was fantastic and it was a great tour to learn about Gamla Stan.
Excellent personal tailored tour from Kiki who walked us around the old town showing us so many points of interest. Kiki gave us enough historical context to understand what we were looking at and explained everything with enthusiasm and humour. She also gave us tips on where to eat, where to shop and other sights to see. We would thoroughly recommend her tour. Thank you Kiki!
Excellent tour of Gamla Stan area. Kiki our guide was outstanding. Great knowledge of Swedish history that made tour very interesting. At end of tour, provided helpful tips for what else to see and dining suggestions. Also made sure we could find our way around Old Town for further exploration.
Kiki was absolutely wonderful, I highly recommend her, knowledgeable, kind, and super nice Very easy to understand too We loved the experience!
Our guide, Kiki, was brilliant. We were given lots of information about Stockholm and Sweden. Kiki even gave has an information card at the end of our tour with lots of tips on what to do and where to eat, what food to try etc which was a lovely touch. I would definitely recommend Kiki.
Kiki greeted us warmly and was an amazing guide. She was knowledgeable, funny and extremely helpful.
Kiki was great - very knowledgeable and very pleasant - had a few laughs and enjoyed her enthusiasm for the old town xxx Private recommendations of where best to eat / save money and avoid was appreciated !
Kiki was a wonderful tour guide! She was full of interesting history and facts about the area and also had fantastic tips about how to navigate Stockholm for first-time visitors. She also did a really nice job of engaging with the teens in our group and not just the adults. This is a great tour to do early in your trip so you can benefit from all of Kiki’s expertise for the remainder of your time in the city.
Kiki was our wonderful guide. Not only did she point out the sights and give us all the pertinent information. She also told us how the street names translated into English. I really enjoyed learning that helpful information. I would highly recommend this tour and hope you get Kiki for your guide.
Good orientation to the old town at an easy pace and lots of historical Information plus local insights provided - would recommend this small group tour
Kiki was a wonderful guide. We learned so much about Gamla Stan and she gave us several great suggestions about sights to visit, places to eat and shop. Loved the small group rather than a huge group. So glad we were on her tour.
Kiki was most knowledgeable. Enjoyed the history lesson. It was fascinating to hear of all the battles and relations between the Scandinavian countries.
Our guide Kiki is a professional! Her knowledge she was vast! She had some fun stories to tell as well. I would recommend her to everyone!
Kiki led a small international group of us thru the cobblestones streets of the old city. Wonderful tour! Learned so much and she answered lots of questions easily.
