Perfect way to spend the night in Stockholm

This was a fun way to spend the evening in Stockholm. Our guide Rhys was knowledgeable and quite the showman. I do agree with other reviews that the tour is more history leaning than the supernatural but this is the perfect tour if you like both these things.
Living told and solid construction

Kristoffer gave us a unique experience in the dark and cold streets of old Stockholm. The tension built up gradually until we had a truly frightening experience. I don't know if I'd dare to do this again 😉

The directions we were given for this ghost tour took us to a locked door. We arrived 15 minutes early so we knocked & were patient. A half hour later a woman answered, & once discovering we were here for the English speaking tour she apologized & said that we must’ve accidentally been given the wrong tour directions. Because this happened we were considered a ‘no show’ and our monies were not returned to us. Viator did not respond to my texts that night or since then. So this is what I’ve had to resort to. Hopefully anyone reading this will reconsider booking ANY Viator tours.

Our guide Lou was very enthusiastic and skilled. We got a really nice, fun, scary and educational tour. I went with my nephew and we were both very pleased.

Worth every penny! Exciting, educational about the old town. For history buffs, it was powerful to experience some of what happened in the old town. Kristine was an excellent guide. Would love to redo the experience.

I found this tour to be underwhelming. There wasn’t much historical depth, and it lacked engaging stories, interesting details, or memorable insights that would make the experience stand out. Overall, it didn’t feel particularly informative or captivating. You could easily skip this one without missing much.

We did the Ghost Tour with Calum and it worth every single minute. We had Calum as our Tour-Guide and he did a fantastic Job. I can recommend it for everyone who likes to know things outside of the mainstream touristy stuff and I will definitely do it again.
