Hello there potential guest, You are about to read a short description about myself. Come and meet me - a person who loves his job - a former journalist who became a tour guide. I have been guiding for the last 10 years in Stockholm and have done over 5000 different tours in this beautiful city. I love using my journalistic experience and education to deliver stories in an engaging yet informative way that will make you, the customer, remember it for a longer time as well. Making everyone feel welcomed and included is my ultimate goal during tours, and at the same time I try to be as laid-back as possible and open to any questions you might have. I am also like you - a traveler who has been to over 50 countries so far and have no intent of stopping anytime soon so I'm sure we will have plenty of topics to discuss, be it about your previous or future travels or simply the amazing history of Stockholm itself. Master of Arts in Journalism, FPZG, Zagreb, Croatia I can not guide inside of the City Hall but can guide in the Vasa museum. I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

Overview of your Stockholm tour

This very tour will be ideal for those of you who are visiting Stockholm for only a day (cruiser guests). We will cover the main sights of downtown and old town in 4 hours. During these hours you really get a great overview of both modern and medieval history of Stockholm. Walk with me through some of the priciest streets of this amazing city and listen to the stories you might have heard about but never really understood like the mysterious murder of Olof Palme, Stockholm syndrome or Stockholm bloodbath. For those of you interested in some royal gossip I have a special treat, which has an interesting outcome on modern day Swedish history. We'll also visit one of the largest and best-preserved medieval city centers in Europe: Stockholm's Gamla Stan. This is where it all started, back in the year 1252. You'll learn about our most important kings—their names are easy to remember—and hear about the famous Vikings plus learn how to read an actual runestone.

Old Town Stockholm was the perfect way to kick off our tour with Zenid. As someone who loves history and getting lost in the past, I couldn't have asked for a better introduction to the city. Zenid has this incredible gift for weaving together history, fun facts, and quirky little tidbits that made every cobblestone street feel like it had a story to tell. Honestly, the man is a walking trivia machine — I'd want him on my team any day. What made it even more special were the off-the-beaten-path spots he brought us to, places we never would have found on our own.

The tour was great. Lots of walking! We learned interesting facts about Stockholm and all the islands. Old town was excellent and Zenid knew all the small streets and taught us about history. Strongly recommend.

We had a four hour tour of Stockholm with Zenid. He was great - incredibly informative, thoughtful in where he took us and a real delight. We were able to cover an enormous amount of the City in our time with him. He gave us a real feel for the history of Stockholm as well as what it is like to live in Stockholm today. I recommend him highly.

Your Stockholm tour itinerary

- After meeting up at the cruise terminal or your hotel we will start exploring the downtown area first since it gets busy in the afternoons passing places of interest like the main shopping/pedestrian street, Concert house, first skyscrapers of Europe, King's street. . . - We will eventually reach the birthplace of Stockholm syndrome and then slowly cross over to the Old Town where we can make a short stop for coffee or snacks, possibly even lunch. - In the Old Town we will avoid the huge groups and stick to the side streets where you can learn about many of the Swedish kings. We'll also unearth one of the best-kept secrets in the city. - You'll walk along the narrowest street of this amazing city and learn why it's a tourist magnet - and I'll also tell you a secret that most people do not know at all.
