Zebastian is truly a fantastic guide and showed us that nothing is too much for him to allow the client to get the most out of the experience. I can’t see anybody doing the job as good and I feel privileged to have gone on tour with him. It was pretty pricey however worth every penny/krona or cent. Thank you Zebastian”

I most definitely would recommend this this tour to anyone. It's a great way to see many Stockholm treasures while trying many Swedish delights. The only recommendation I have is having an option to tip electronically. Or a way to do it through the app. As I myself did not have any currency on me. I would have loved to have been able to tip my guide as he definitely deserved one. So bring some cash on your tour so you can tip.”
