We went on the old town tour with our guide Katrina. The tour was very well planned, and had the perfect balance of wonderful sites, great history, and simply fun stories. We learned and saw so much during this 1.5 hour tour that my wife and I went back the next day to retrace some of the places we visited during the tour. It was evident that Katrina really enjoys giving this tour, and we would call this one of our highlights during our 4 day visit to Stockholm. We'd definitely recommend this tour and Katrina to anyone visiting this wonderful city.
Highlights

Description
Dare to time travel to an age when lords and ladies rode their horses through the narrow, cobbled streets, shopkeepers shouted out the daily deals from their doorways and animals hopped from rooftop to rooftop (well, only in the beginning perhaps!). Entering into the Old Town is like stepping back in time and having the city’s living history unfold around you.
In our very personal opinion, the Old Town of Stockholm is the ideal place to start your visit to this beautiful capital, especially if you want to get to know the Swedes (we’re not only Vikings you know!) and a bit about the city's long, fascinating history. If you’re looking for a short and sweet introduction to the historical centre of Stockholm, this tour is the perfect walking tour for you.
We begin at the exceptionally photogenic main square, Stortorget, in the heart of the Old Town (trust us, get your cameras ready!). At the Royal Palace, we will give you insight into how a gym owner and a reality tv-star became real-life royalty. While sampling a piece of a traditional candy cane, you will experience the result of the Swedes’ creative innovation skills.
Now your Stockholm Old Town Walk is complete - what a treat!
