About this experience
Solve A Mystery is a self-guided murder mystery city tour in Stockholm for friends and family! Simply purchase online, collect it at our pick-up location, and begin your adventure any time that suits you. Murder by The Royal Palace is inspired by true events and takes place around the Old Town of Stockholm. The total walking distance is about 1.5 km (around 1 mile), and your final destination is by the Riddarhustorget. We are writing the year 1966 and the brutal murder of a woman has the city of Stockholm on edge. As responsible investigators, it is your duty to solve this bestial act of bloodshed and restore peace and order on Stockholm's streets. It is your job to gather enough evidence to point out the right suspect of the crime. Eventually, you will reach the Supreme Court where you gather all your clues and hopefully accuse the right person guilty of the crime. You are responsible for ensuring justice is served. Good luck and happy solving!

To see it from the outside you expect more
To see it from the outside you expect more but you will not be disappointed, some very nice rooms as well as the corridors that you cross to reach them. The visit of the palace is actually made up of a visit to several museums, including the part dedicated to treasures with crowns and swords as evidence of the value of the family. Not far away and included in the ticket you can visit the Riddarholmen church where most of the rulers were buried. Recommended The changing of the guard deserves just if you pass by at the appointed time

Good stuff.
Good experience. Some things could do with tweaking, but we had a good time solving the puzzles and seeing the older part of Stockholm.
Response from the operator: Thanks a lot. Have a wonderful day. Regs the Solve team.

Murder at the castle
Everything was ok, easy to follow and interesting to learn about the old town. Annoying that I here will have to write more than I want
Response from the operator: Mange tak. Din rating betyder meget for os:)

Very funny experience highly recommended! A guided tour without a guide so to speak that brings you to a lot of interesting places in Old Town, Stockholm!

A fun visit
We tried the experiment. We laughed! No complications to recover the puzzle envelope. Lets you discover the Gamla Stan neighborhood. In complete autonomy, you must play the game and only discover the sheets one after the other and at the indicated time. Pretty funny!
Response from the operator: Bonjour et merci pour votre évaluation. Faites-nous savoir si vous venez dans une nouvelle ville où nous organisons des promenades mystères et nous voulons nous assurer que vous vivez une expérience au moins aussi bonne. Rég. Rasmus

Why this scores 59
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Stockholm Self-Guided Murder Mystery Tour by the Royal Palace: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Stockholm.
How much does Stockholm Self-Guided Murder Mystery Tour by the Royal Palace cost?
+
Prices start at $58 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Stockholm usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Stockholm Self-Guided Murder Mystery Tour by the Royal Palace take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Stockholm is not rushed.
Is Stockholm Self-Guided Murder Mystery Tour by the Royal Palace worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Stockholm, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Stockholm Self-Guided Murder Mystery Tour by the Royal Palace?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Stockholm Self-Guided Murder Mystery Tour by the Royal Palace suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Stockholm Self-Guided Murder Mystery Tour by the Royal Palace?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Stockholm can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Stockholm and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Stockholm Self-Guided Murder Mystery Tour by the Royal Palace start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Stockholm within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Stockholm?
+
On Outty we rank every Stockholm experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Stockholm: Walking Tour of the Old Town, Best of Stockholm: Small Group Walking Tour (Max 10, 3 Hours), Vasa Museum Guided Tour, Including Ticket & Guide. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Stockholm?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Stockholm?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
