Description

Gamla Stan Self-Guided Walking Tour

Explore the best-preserved old town in Europe. Gamla Stan is Stockholm’s old town and is located on an island in the heart of the city. For hundreds of years, this was the entire city of Stockholm. Only over the last couple hundred years has Stockholm spread out to the other islands around Lake Malaren. Gamla Stan fell into disrepair for some time as other parts of the city became more important, but now Gamla Stan is well-maintained and the most visited place in Stockholm. The fact that it is one of the few medieval cities in Europe not damaged during World War II (as Sweden was neutral) only makes it more wonderful to go walking around in!

  1. Andrew (verified owner) –

    We’d booked a guided tour but the guide didn’t show – so we downloaded this self-guided walk instead. It was very informative and interesting, and took us round the quieter parts of Gamla Stan, avoiding the busy tourist thoroughfare. It took us a little longer than the stated 1 hour as we diverted a bit to look at other things along the route. I recommend this guide, and also recommend a coffee break at “Fika and Wine” on Osterlanggatan on the way 🙂
