Enjoy your private tour with a guide in the language of your choosing.
Slussen translates to “the lock,” and the reason for the lock is the difference in water level. Two bodies of water surround Stockholm: Lake Mälaren on the one side (west) and the Baltic Sea on the other (east). Lake Mälaren is approximately 70cm higher than the Baltic Sea.
Götgatan turns in to Götgatsbacken and is the main pedestrian street of Södermalm, or Söder, as the locals would say. The street is home to, amongst others, shopping with modern-day brands like H&M, Filippa K and Cheap Monday. For those looking for vintage, op shops are found here, there and everywhere. There are also bars and pubs which offer a more laid-back and unpretentious nightlife.
Omnipollos hatt (Omnipollos Hat) is one of the many places on Södermalm that can be described as “out of the ordinary.” Omnipollo was originally a phantom brewery and is now also a pub.
You will make your own way to the meeting points
The tour departs from Södermalmstorg, and the guide will meet you at the top of the stairs, outside the entrance to the City Museum (Stadsmuseum), located on Södermalm. The guide is on site approx. 10 minutes before departure. Look for our guide holding the OURWAY logo as a sign. If you have trouble locating the guide or the meeting point, please give us a call a few minutes before the start of the tour. When you call before the tour begins, we have a greater chance of helping you find your way.
