Welcome to Stockholm!

I would be happy to guide you through this amazing city and show you everything that Stockholm has to offer!

 
It will be a very dynamic interaction with many topics about the social, cultural, political and economical uniqueness of Sweden. We will cover the modern city of Stockholm and talk about Stockholm Syndrome, the Swedish model in economics, the Welfare State, how the pandemic was managed, Olof Palme, the Nobel Prize, the monopoly of alcohol the motto "lagom", the climate and geography, religion, happiness index, integration of refugees, crime statistics and  neutrality during WW2.

Hemos organizado el dia para hacer este tour. Ayer me enviaron un mail confirmando el dia, la hora y el nombre del guia. Pues no se ha presentado nadie! Y sin ninguna explicación. Empresa y organización sin ningún tipo de seriedad. No pienso utilizar guruwalk nunca mas.

Excellent tour by Sebastian explaining Swedish society, culture, politics and much much more. He has a vast and deep knowledge about European and international current events while understanding the past and is able to explain things in an easy understandable way. By far the best tour I've attended, this goes way beyond any typical sight seeing tour and gives you great insights.
