Maximize your time in Stockholm - Very nice tour. I was one of only four guests, which was lovely. Natia was lovely, and very knowledgable. This was a great way to really appreciate the Old Town, beyond just walking around by yourself. I got a good feel for the history, and saw a lot of interesting things I wouldn't have known to look for on my own.

Fun tour for group or solo - Great fun. Informative tour. Lots of interesting history. We had time to stop at many different talking points and ask questions.

Don't skip it-- you'll take away so much! - We had a lovely tour, and it ended up being just the two of us! Our guide was SO knowledgeable, kind and willing to share so much about local history, culture and anything we asked. Highly recommend this tour. You'll learn and appreciate so much more than you would on your own on a walk through the neighborhood.

Not our favorite walking tour - Our guide was very knowledgeable but soft spoken. The maximum group size was supposed to be 15 but was slightly larger at 22. Most of the other participants were college exchange students & 2 chaperones who often talked amongst themselves while the tour guide was speaking - making it even more difficult to hear her. Sticking to the maximum of 15 people and giving the guide a microphone would have helped.

Rip-off - This tour should be worth $10. $45 is an absolute rip off. Just walking around town with 20 other people. You can even do that in a self guided tour.

Not good. - Guide never showed up. Waited 15 mins. Contacted Aviator for refund. And went thru their live chat, which was a lot of back and forth. Said they initiated refund but no excuse or reason given for the guide not showing or contacting me prior

Guide did not show up - The guide did not show up hence the bad review. No communications at all from the tour operator which was very frustrating as we could have booked another tour if they had cancelled prior to the time. Just a waste of time for us and really disappointed. One positive was that the payment was refunded once I requested it.

Guide Was a No Show - The guide never showed up. We waited 45 min past the scheduled time, and the guide never showed up. I received no communication about this and had to call Viator for a refund.
