Book a Guide

Stockholm Tourist Service / Guide Booking works only with Certified Stockholm guides authorized by Stockholm Visitors Board (City of Stockholm).

Certified Stockholm Guides

Certified guides undertake a one year guide education course and many have special knowledge in various fields such as history, architecture and much more. Certified guides undertake certification exams ensuring their guide and language skills are assessed on a regular basis.

Our basic fee for a guide is SEK 2 950 (for up to 3 hours). For additional hours, an hourly rate of SEK 795 will be charged. An additional one hour fee is charged if assignments start or end outside the city center or for start or end at Arlanda or Bromma Airport. Expenses for the guide for travel to/from airport by the Airport Coach will be added. A holiday fee is charged on public holidays and an evening supplement is charged between 7 PM and 7 AM.

Important notes

Groups of 45 persons or more are considered very large when a microphone is not available, and particularly for walking tours, groups of around 30 are considered large. Please talk to us so that we can help find the very best solution for your specific group.
