Fun and interesting tour - This was my first walking tour but surely not the last! Our tour guide Katherine was simply excellent and the tour was great fun. Short distances at a slow pace, so physically not demanding. The content was interesting, versatile and interactive. You get to explore more than just the basic touristy places. As a fellow language and linguistics nerd, I enjoyed the details of Swedish language! Highly recommend! Two hours went past too quickly, could've continued for another two hours.

Definitely worth your time - It was fun, you get to hear wonderful stories and information. It’s a relaxing walking tour and you get to see some hidden gems. Like the narrowest lane in the world. If you have time just do it.

The guide was great... BUT - My guide was Katherine. She was very nice, smart and passionate about her job. For her it's a 5/5. However, the whole experience was not that great because the group size was around 40 people. Often i had to come in front of other people to hear the guide. She tried to say that we should come closer but still, with a smaller group it would be way easier and cozier. Also i did not enjoy that a kid in a stroller joined our group and because of them we didn't get to go on the narrowest street. I didn't have time to come back on my own so that's just dosappointing. And in the rules it was clearly said that it is not accesible for wheelchairs and strollers.

👎🏻 - Free walking tour but have to pay before started it for something that was not even informative enough, with a person that was not even nice. What a not nice experience.
