Fantastic tour and explanation of Old Town! - 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.

Outstanding tour with a very thoughtful guide! - 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!

Interesting, informative, and entertaining tour. - 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!

Kiki Was Great! - 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!!!

Educational and informative. - 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.

Kiki was great - 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
