About Tour Guide Anna-lena S.
Welcome to SWEDEN and STOCKHOLM - my hometown!
Join me for a guided walk through narrow alleys and on quaint cobble stones in Old Town or a visit to one of our many museums, the Royal Palace, the City Hall, the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Drottningholm Palace or the Vasa Museum.
We talk about the history, the architecture, the art but also todays culture and life.
Welcome to the province of DALARNA and the city of FALUN - my hometown as well!
Let me open up the doors to my country, the culture and the history on our walks. My roots are in the country side, the province of Dalarna, where I am a qualified tourist guide. This is where one of the symbols of Sweden is made, the Dalahorse. Falun is a UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE, let me take you around in the area, to the painter Carl Larsson's home and museum, to the village of Sundborn and to the city of Falun. This is where the red paint used on som many houses in Sweden comes from and where art, fairy tales, industry and nature blends into one.
Or if in Stockholm, why not join me to Skansen Park in Stockholm and hear about old and new traditions from Dalarna and other parts. I am a qualified tourist guide in Stockholm as well.
Welcome to the university town of UPPSALA - where vikings, scholars and Kings meet.
The old ancient history at Old Uppsala will come to live at the museum, we will admire the runestones, visit the cathedral as well as the university library. A day full of history!

“Stockholm City Tour”
We had an absolutely fantastic time on our Stockholm city tour, all thanks to Anna-Lena! She was incredibly charming and knowledgeable, making the entire experience delightful and memorable. Her enthusiasm and passion for the city were contagious, and we all learned so much. Anna-Lena’s attention to detail and her warm personality made our tour special. We would love to have her as our guide again on our next visit. Highly recommended!
