Välkommen till Stockholm! My hometown for the past 40 years and one of my favorite places in the world. I worked as a tourist information officer for the City of Stockholm for many years and today I am a licensed tour guide. Stockholm offers a lot of culture, nature, shopping, great museums, theater, design, history, a beautiful archipelago and the Old Town. I enjoy visiting these attractions and I would like to invite you to join me to discover them during your visit to Stockholm. My free time I like to spend with my daughter, family and friends visiting the archipelago, relaxing and maybe picking some berries and mushrooms. I love downhill skiing, I was brought up in Finland next to a ski hill. I also enjoy reading history books, cooking, visiting exhibitions and flea markets. I am positive and friendly. I enjoy meeting new people and do everything I can to help guests to make the most of their visit in Stockholm. If you are an elderly person or have children with you, no problems, we will discover Stockholm "your" way together. See you soon & you're most welcome to Stockholm! - Licensed Stockholm guide , authorized by the Stockholm City Council - Special Licensed Guide at Stockholm City Hall - The Millennium Trilogy Guide, the Stockholm City Museum - Design lectures at Svenskt Tenn, Stockholm - Member of FSAG, Stockholm's Guide organization - College Haga Helia, tourism and marketing , Finland - Dive Master, PADI, Cairns, Australia - Ellensburg High School, Wa, USA I am not a driver, but I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

Overview of your Stockholm tour

Welcome to Stockholm! Let's have this private tour to experience the history and the modern lifestyle of Stockholm. I love my hometown and it has a lot to offer! I will show you the most fabulous places: the Vasa Museum (a ship that sunk on its maiden voyage 1628), City Hall (where the Nobel banquet is held every year on December 10) and of course, the Old Town with its narrow cobblestone streets! You will discover wonderful old buildings, many of them from the 17th and 18th centuries and some of the basements 13th & 14th centuries. You will also see the Royal Palace and its guards, as well as the Stockholm Cathedral as you stroll along the narrow cobblestone streets. The Great Square, with its old well and traditional Christmas market in December, is filled with happy travelers enjoying the sun in the summertime. I'll show you the Viking Age runestone (1000 years old) and we will have time for shopping and snack/ lunch.

Mecki was the type of guide we were hoping for and more. She arrived at our hotel on time, and we sat down to discuss what we would do on our tour. She personalized our agenda, made time and recommended a place for lunch, took my wife to places for souvenirs and kept us entertained the whole time. She’s very knowledgeable about Stockholm, and the places we needed to visit. We were never rushed. It was especially nice being able to enter places without waiting, and just having the three of us instead of a group. We are older, and may be a little slower, but we saw everything and walked over 3 1/2 miles on the tour. Stopped when we needed to rest and took different modes of public transportation to get around. We highly recommend Mecki as a personal tour guide if you’re planning to come to Stockholm. Thank you again, Mecki!!

We had a very nice day with Mecki in Stockholm. Her detailed information at the Stockholm City Hall was especially interesting.

Mecki was incredible! We met at our hotel in the morning. Mecki sat us down for a few minutes to get acquainted and to get a feeling of our interests. We knew nothing about Stockholm, and settled on a tour of Stockholm's City Hall, the Vasa Museum, and a good overall stroll around the city. Mecki kept us busy, but at a relaxed pace with lots of interesting information. Her guidance through the magnificent City Hall was perfect. Then a quick bus ride to the ferry dock and a lovely ferry ride. Mecki was well informed about the Vasa. Mecki's walk from the Vasa Museum along Strandvagen back to the Old Town was very pleasant and picturesque. She left us with a great impression of Stockholm and a great desire to return. We highly recomment Mecki.

If you are traveling to Stockholm and need a guide book Mecki B. Do it now! She was fantastic. Tour included City Hall, a stop at the subway. Trust me it is worth a look. She took us to the Vasa museum and a final shopping stop at Svenskt Tenn . Finally she recommended restaurants for us at the end of the tour. Also included lots of information along the walk that we would have missed without her. She was great and I recommend booking her.

My husband, adult son and I just spent a wonderful day with our guide Mecki in the city of Stockholm. She was very knowledgeable, flexible and a joy to be around. We got so much more out of this tour than we would have in a larger group. We covered a lot of ground and enjoyed every minute. 100% recommend.

Mecki did an outstanding job. She took Denise and I to many nice spots including City Hall and the old ship museum, she knows her stuff. We used public transportation and a ferry, very interesting. We would use her again when in Stockholm.
