“We had a fun time being led through the streets of Galma Stan, with tales of the darker parts of history. It wasn’t a ghost tour, but more of an informative stroll. The stories were entertaining. Crazy how you can walk down a charming alley, with no idea of what happened 100s of years ago in that very same spot.”

10.Private blood, ghosts and folklore Old Town 2h Stockholm tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 3 reviews · from $188

A private 90-minute Stockholm Old Town walk with spooky folklore, blood stories, and door-routine tips, guided all the way.

“It seems that not much happened in Old Town Stockholm. Based on the name of this tour, we were expecting many interesting, gruesome, intriguing stories. Instead we were told that a body was found between the walls of the palace and they say her ghost still haunts the palace. Campfire stories are better than this. Our guide was nice, but there isn't much to say.”
