Nice tour, lovely guide - Everything ran on time and we really enjoyed the tour with Philip, much better than a walking tour cause you get to cover a lot more parts of the city in the same amount of time

Informative and mellow biking tour of Stockholm - Phillip provided a 2.5 hour leisurely tour around many of the sites and islands of Stockholm. We stopped at a waterside cafe for coffee and baked goods (these optional expenses were not included in tour) which was very pleasant. The ride totaled a little over 6 miles on the bike. Phillip was very conversational, providing history of many locations as well as restaurant and shopping suggestions. We enjoyed this tour very much.

Great Overview of Stockholm - Philip did a great job taking us through the history and highlights of Stockholm. We went to all of the major tourist spots, and participating in this ride helped give us a sense of what we would want to dive into further versus not. Philip was a great personality and it was nice to get his point of view of Sweden. I would definitely recommend this for any first-time travelers to the city.

Expensive and lacking local knowledge - The cycling part was fine and as it was the national day for Sweden we did see the procession through the city ( quite accidentally though I might add) but we could have hired bikes and used a map to get around very easily and for a lot less money. We booked a guided tour so that we could in addition to orientating ourselves , learn some interesting facts about the city and get recommendations for sights, restaurants and cafes from a local. We have done many bike tours in different cities and normally find good information like where locals go for coffee , evening meal for great quality and value etc away from tourist hotspots. Unfortunately we didn’t get much in the way of recommendations or local knowledge or history so we were a bit disappointed and felt the 3 hours was very expensive at approx £65 each. We enjoyed the bike ride nevertheless as the weather was good and the guide friendly. We used Trip Advisor afterwards to find attractions and eateries and also took pot luck wandering into restaurants and cafes with mixed results. One restaurant that was highly rated on Trip Advisor was awful! Hence we will not be put off guided tours in future as local knowledge and recommendations are always important to us.
