Do you have questions about the blond people from the North? On our Stockholm City Private Walking Tour, we cover the A-Z’s of the city and the Swedes. The Nobel Prizes, Stockholm Syndrome, Swedish culture and everything in-between.
The story about the tour
In Sweden’s capital, politicians and royalty alike wander the streets like everyday people. Old buildings with plenty of character to go around stand nearby new, modern architecture. Construction cranes dot the skyline (and you wonder why they’re nicknamed the city bird?) while trams and bicyclists whiz by. This is Stockholm’s city district, Norrmalm – the bustling heart of the city centre where there are plenty of surprises to share and fascinating stories to unveil (it didn’t look this way at the time of the city’s founding in 1252 you can be sure of that!).
Uncover the hotspots of the modern area of the city centre as you zig-zag your way through busy city streets, learning about the Swedish capital, its people and life in Sweden. We will see highlights such as Hötorget, the Haymarket and home of the Stockholm Concert Hall, Stureplan, the location of posh shopping and nightlife and Norrmalmstorg, the origin of a term in psychology (or the title of a One Direction song). From Swedish fashion brands, famous Swedish actors and actresses and what tobacco products Swedes find more popular than cigarettes, we’ll cover the A-Z’s of the city and the Swedes.
We end our Stockholm City Private Walking Tour just across the water from the Old Town – in Kungsträdgården. The first city park in Stockholm, Kungsträdgården (The King’s Garden), has something everyone can enjoy year-round. By the end, we’ll have dug deep, looking beyond the surface of the beautiful buildings of Stockholm and the stylish Swedes that live here.

Happy Nobel Day! 💡 As Nobel Week was cancelled in 2020, Nobel lectures, prizes and banquets were replaced with Nobel Week Lights - light installations inspired by Nobel Prize-awarded findings and laureates. As the festivities are now back, we sure hope that we are so lucky that the artwork brightening up the city during the darkest month of the year; is a December tradition that has come to stay. 💫
🇸🇪
Nobeldagen är här! 💡 Nobelveckan blev inställd 2020, och istället för Nobelföreläsningar, prisutdelning och bankett genomfördes Nobel Week Lights som är ljusinstallationer inspirerade av Nobelpris på olika platser i Stockholm. Det blev så uppskattat att det genomförs i år igen trots att Nobelveckan är återinförd. Har vi tur så är det en decembertradition som kommit för att stanna. 💫

It’s a contested issue amongst numerous Baltic connected countries as to who invented the Ice-skate. Was it the Finns or the Dutch? All of this is irrelevant because the best city to ice-skate in is Stockholm. If you want to show off your Quadruple Axel in front of the masses, the ice-rink in Kungsträdgården is the perfect location. ✨⛸️✨

Don`t let its controversy cloud your curiosity as Christianshavns characteristic slanting roofs and canals, as well as the tremendous Church of Our Saviour, are well worth seeing. Not to forget the Færgecafé or Café Parterre who are both worth visiting.

A few hundred years ago, if you asked a Norwegian how old they were they might reply “I have seen forty winters!” Every year of life was a success! Now, living conditions are of course much improved, but there is no such thing as a mild winter here. Bring thermal underwear, wool and grow a beard... if you can. ❄️☃️☃️
Of course, if you love the snow and want to ski, then you`re in the perfect place, and you get to see the beauty of Oslo in a truly Nordic light! The canvas of white snow - unpredictable but usually arriving in November/December - can provide a canvas of light across the city that makes up for the few hours of sunlight the people of Oslo get to enjoy. While still beautiful, it`s best to stay inside! ✨✨

The temperature might not be super-cold in Winter in Copenhagen, but strong winds make it quite chilly. 🌬 The city is still quite magical. 🌟 The Christmas markets open already in the middle of November so that you can warm up with a hot Gløgg! Expect 10 to 13 rainy days per month.

The first snow is here with us in Stockholm! 😍❄
Södermalm (the South Island) is the largest of all the islands that make up Stockholm. For the majority of Stockholm`s existence, it has been the home of the poor and the working class. Not anymore! Today, the hipsters have well and truly transformed Södermalm into a trendy place to live, work and play. 🐱👓

What`s a better winter activity than museum hopping? Not much, if you ask us. Let us introduce you to Bygdøy (also known as museum heaven), the peninsula in Oslo where you find a big collection of museums close to each other. Perfect! ❄️

Our favourite time of the year is here! 🎅🏻🎄 If you are in Stockholm for this festive season, make sure you make it a tasty one 😋 and try:
🌟 Freshly baked saffron buns, also called “lussekatter”, preferably filled with almond paste.
🌟 Gingerbread cookies and having them with blue cheese, it’s an odd yet delicious combo, we promise!
🌟 Freshly made candy cane, if you pop into @gamlastanspolka and find them baking the candy canes, they often let you try the mix. Soft candy cane should be a thing!
