Must do in Stockholm! - What a wonderful tour that not only included lots of delicious foods but also insights into the history, architecture, and culture of Sweden. Our guide, Fritz, was warm, charming, knowledgeable, and engaging. Highly recommend this activity when in Stockholm.

What a Gem !! - Had just landed in Stockholm and made it in the nick of time to a wonderful tour with a lovely guide Theresa. Tasting almost everything I never had before from moose, reindeer and bear to licorice. Met some fascinating Aussies that joined in and had a blast while getting in 7K in steps. Highly recommend. Thanks Theresa 😘😘😘

Excellent tour - The tour was excellent! Valentina was very friendly, she explained every dish very well. She answered every question both about food and history very well. It was very interesting to be able to taste a variety of national dishes. Highly recommend the tour.

Went back for seconds! - The variety of food we tried on this tour was great, especially the meatballs, cheeses, fish stew, and meats. We went back to to a few of the places to eat the food again - the meatballs were the best! We had one gluten-intolerant person and they still got to try just about everything. I feel like we didn't quite get as much history of Stockholm as I've gotten on other food tours in other cities, but the amount of food was perfect and glad that one of the stops was in the Old Town. The guide did provide additional recommendations of things to do/see in Stockholm which was nice. I'd also recommend that they provide a list of foods from the tour - we didn't know the name of the cheeses so we weren't able to buy them for ourselves later.

Went back for seconds! - We loved the variety of food we tried on this tour, especially the cheeses, meats, meatballs, and fish stew. We returned to several of the places to eat the food again - especially the meatballs! We had one gluten-free person and she still got to try just about everything. I feel like we didn't quite get as much history of Stockholm as I've gotten on other food tours in other cities, but the amount of food was perfect and glad that one of the stops was in the Old Town. The guide did provide additional recommendations of things to do/see in Stockholm which was nice, but it would have been great if we had a list of foods that we tried. For example, we tried three different cheeses but couldn't remember the names of them when we went back to buy them.

Good customer service - The trip was cancelled by trip advisor due to illness so we cannot provide a review. The team did offer a later time to join another group, but it did not work for our group. They also provided the names of a few of the restaurants we would have visited for us to explore on our own. We appreciated the customer service and communication

Food walking tour - Tour group too large. Guide good but not enough detail provided about where the next stop was and too much downtime sitting in a restaurant. Wine provided but not offered to all tables. Good but could have been better.
