Hej! Hi! Most welcome to Stockholm and Sweden! My name is Anette and I would love to show you the beautiful city of Stockholm and the interesting surroundings. I was born in the city and I lived here all my life. I would like to share my city with you, and tell you all the great stories and the history of Stockholm. Take a look at my tours to get an idea of what you want to see and do. We can easily change according to your wishes. There are so many things to experience in Stockholm. We can do city walks, go to museums, or visit palaces in and around Stockholm. The archipelago with all islands is very special, or maybe a walk in the smallest national park just 40 min drive from Stockholm? It will all be unforgettable in different ways. During the tour I will have the opportunity to tell you about daily life in Stockholm and about Swedish traditions. You can pick one of my published tours, or tell me what you want to experience and I will arrange for it. I always start my tours with a short introduction to the Swedish history. Some more about me, history and travelling has always been my interests and passions. My career started within international telecoms, I traveled in my job but also for vacation. With two grown up sons, I went back to university and studied to become a teacher in history and business economics. I have been a teacher at a high-school for many years. Now I spend more of my time guiding and I do love it! If you book a tour with me I will send you, - a list of the 10 attractions in Stockholm - a list of the top 10 attractions just outside Stockholm - a list with the 10 best restaurants - a list with the 10 best bars - a list with the 10 best coffee/lunch places All according to me. :-) Again, welcome to Stockholm! Good for guiding, -Authorized guide in Stockholm since 2012. - Master in teaching/education in history and business economics, University of Stockholm - Worked within international companies (AT&T, Telia international carrier) - Driving license

We will visit the City hall of Stockholm, probably the biggest architectural project during the 20th century (in Sweden), an unique building ready in 1923. Maybe most famous for the yearly Nobel prize dinner. Beautiful halls in a national romantic style with influences from the nordic gothic and Italian renaissance. Several leading Swedish artist at the time contributed to the beautiful interior design. We will then walk via the medieval Riddarholmen to the part of Stockholm called the Old Town and visit the royal palace of Stockholm. The palace is today the "office" for the king and queen of Sweden. Since 1981 they live at Drottningholm palace outside Stockholm. The royal palace of Stockholm has been on the spot since the 11th century. From the beginning a defensive castle that the Vasa kings turned into a renaissance palace that burned to the ground in 1697. It took 57 years to build the new palace with an baroque exterior that you can see today. It is one of the larger palaces in Europe.
Annette was great. We were getting a little maxed out on tours and she was able to keep us engaged and interested. She found us a spot to refuel with Fika and a pastry so we could continue on. Palaces themselves hold many similarities across Europe but we all really enjoyed the historical lore Annette had to share!
My wife and I had a fantastic day with Anette touring City Hall and the Royal Palace. She was very knowledgeable on the history of the area and the royals (she is a history teacher!) And she is an excellent guide. This was a great introduction to Stockholm.
Great tour and AWESOME GUIDE! Sincerely enjoyed. Very knowledgeable and dedicated to tour. Strongly recommend!
Anette was a FANTASTIC guide. She is/was an educator and gave me all the information I wanted on Swedish history. She was super knowledgeable about the places we went and the things she showed me. I would highly recommend Anette as a tour guide.
