    Great guiding!

    The guide Kristoffer was fun and easygoing and made the tour interesting. It made you forget about the thunderstorm.

    The World's Best Ghost Walk

    Oh, woow woow wooow. Me and my husband went ghost walking yesterday with our guide Peter who made it absolutely magical! He told the story of the Old Town about all the events that happened and still happen so you went goose bumps on the tour! Highly recommend this! We had kids k the group and he was so friendly to everyone so we felt like a close-knit group. He heard both a lot of screams and laughter from our group, which we thank for! Many thanks Peter for an unforgettable experience!!

    Response from the operator: Woow vilken trevlig review! Vad kul att ni blev så nöjda med vår vandring och guide.

    An enjoyable tour of Stockholm Old Town

    Chris the tour guide was great fun and had plenty of spooky and gruesome stories about the Old Town in Stockholm. The start point is easy to find. The group was fairly big about 20-25 people but there was no problem hearing and seeing what was going on. It is definitely worth wearing warm comfortable clothes and good shoes especially if you go in November like we did. The whole experience is well organised and fun.

    Response from the operator: Thank you! Glad you liked our tour and guide.

    Cancellation by organizer without giving reasons

    I had booked this tour for my visit to Stockholm in a few months. Now I receive a cancellation without any plausible reason given. Totally disappointing.

    The Original Stockholm Ghost Walk and Historical Tour - Södermalm: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Stockholm.

    How much does The Original Stockholm Ghost Walk and Historical Tour - Södermalm cost?

    +

    Prices start at $31 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 The Original Stockholm Ghost Walk and Historical Tour - Södermalm take?

    +

    Plan for about 1.5 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 The Original Stockholm Ghost Walk and Historical Tour - Södermalm worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 7 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 The Original Stockholm Ghost Walk and Historical Tour - Södermalm?

    +

    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 The Original Stockholm Ghost Walk and Historical Tour - Södermalm suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book The Original Stockholm Ghost Walk and Historical Tour - Södermalm?

    +

    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 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does The Original Stockholm Ghost Walk and Historical Tour - Södermalm 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.

    Included: Local guide. Not included: Hotel pickup and drop off; Food and drinks, unless specified; and Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
