A Memorable and Inspiring Walking Tour

5.00I had the pleasure of taking a private architectural and design walking tour with Olesia, and it was truly a memorable experience. Being the only guest made it feel especially intimate, and Olesia guided me through the city with fascinating stories that brought each place to life. Her passion, knowledge, and engaging stories made the tour memorable! I also appreciated that she gave me time to explore design stores on my own, where I could browse furniture, home accessories, and textiles at my own pace. It was the perfect balance of guided insight and personal discovery. I highly recommend Olesia—thank you again for sharing your time and passion with me!

4.00Interesting tour of Stockholm with a twist - understanding the architecture and design influences and learning more about a couple of key designers in the scandi scene. Would be good if they could throw in at least one Art Metro stop.
Excellent tour with Loredana
