How Do We Get There?
By foot:
From Kungsträdgården walk over the bridge and you are
in Gamla Stan. Walk straight ahead along Skeppsbron with the castle
on your right hand side and water on your left until you are just
past the castle, then turn right up the road (Slottsbacken) with
the
Castle on your right hand side and continue straight ahead to
the Obelisk.

By Tunnelbana: (Underground train)
The Underground, Metro or Subway is called Tunnelbana in Swedish.
Look for the big T signs. Both the red and green lines stop at the
Gamla Stan station.
By Bus:
Bus numbers 43, 2, 55 and 76. Alight at Slottsbacken (in front of
the castle)
Bus numbers 3 and 53. Alight at Riddarhustorget (in front of the
House of Nobility or Knights building as it sometimes called).
Where do the Tours depart and finish?
The tours depart from the Obelisk, beside the Royal Castle, Slottsbacken,
the Old Town (Gamla Stan).
What do I wear?
General sight-seeing wear is perfect. We suggest wearing clothes
that are comfortable
for you to walk in, including comfortable shoes. Stiletto shoes
should probably be avoided as its easy to sink into the cracks between
the cobble stones!
To get maximum enjoyment out of the tour please pack weather gear
appropriate to the day e.g. umbrella/raincoat or hat/sunscreen.
What happens in bad weather?
There is a Swedish expression “There is no such thing as bad
weather only bad clothes.”
Our walking tours operate as scheduled – rain, hail, shine
or even snow!
Do I need to be fit?
All fitness levels are welcome and will thoroughly enjoy the walking
tours. If you are concerned about the tour please speak to your
tour guide prior to the start of your
walking tour.
Would the tour be suitable
for wheelchairs/prams?
Yes definitely. The route can be slightly modified for wheelchairs
and prams.
What language are the tours conducted in?
The tours are conducted in English, but interpreters accompanying
non-English speaking visitors are welcome to join the tour to translate.
What if I want to do something a little
different?
To arrange a tour at a time that suits you better, to request a
personal guide,
to organize a group, or school educational tour, please don’t
hesitate to contact us.
