Narrow alleys, iconic sites, and tales of a bygone era - trace in the footsteps of medieval Stockholm on our Stockholm Old Town Private Walking Tour! From the Royal Palace to Riddarholmen Church - history is in the air!
Enjoy your private tour with a guide in the language of your choosing.
Stortorget is Stockholm's heart and the Old Town's main square. With its iconic, colourful buildings, it is a must-see! Learn about the Stockholm Bloodbath, the Nobel Prize, and more as you stroll the narrow alleyways.
The northernmost part of Prästgatan (Priest Street) was once known as Helvetsgränd (Hell's Alley). During the Middle Ages, it was thought that the part northwest of the church was a desecrated resting place for the dead. Storkyrkan (Stockholm Cathedral) is just around the corner; thus, this part of the street was called Hell.
The Royal Palace is one of Europe's largest and most vibrant places. It is His Majesty the King's official residence, and essential parts of the monarchy's representation occur here. The Royal Palace is also the everyday workplace for the King and Queen. This makes the Royal Palace of Stockholm unique amongst Europe's royal residences.
