No tickets are sold and no groups are booked through this site, so there is no form and no desk to queue at. The 8 GuruWalk walks and 2 freetour.com exclusives described here belong to independent local guides, and every sign-up happens on the platform page for the walk you pick. What this site keeps is one email address, and mail that lands there gets read. Corrections, new walks and firm disagreements all belong there. Short, specific messages work best.

Some messages matter more than others. A tip that a guide now starts elsewhere, or that a landmark stopped letting visitors into its courtyard without a ticket, saves the next reader from a wasted trip. Corrections like those are the reason this page and its inbox exist.

• Tour descriptions fall out of date. Guides switch meeting spots, shorten routes, or pass their walks to someone else, and the words on a page can end up behind the reality on the ground. Spotted a gap on any of the 10 walks listed here? Tell us the tour name and what differs. One detail never needs reporting: cost. All 10 walks run on tips alone, pay what you want at the end, so there is no price that can change on you.
• A tour that has vanished or changed shape without notice. Give its name and the difference you saw. If the walk's own GuruWalk or freetour.com page backs up the report, the entry here is corrected or taken down.
• Museum entry rules move too. Sweden's state museums have sold general admission tickets since the 2022 funding change, most keeping a free path for visitors under 20 and a few opening free on certain evenings, while some landmarks admit you to the courtyard at no charge but sell the interior tour. Found a page repeating a rule the attraction has dropped? Send the current terms. Every entry condition on this site is taken from the institution's own published ticket information.
• Spotted a walk these pages overlook? If a bookable free tour of Stockholm exists on GuruWalk or freetour.com without a card here, send the link and it gets reviewed like the rest. Operators cannot buy a spot, and guides cannot pay for a better one.
• Plain questions are fine as well, whether the FAQ or the guides cover them.

What Happens Next

Repairs go first. A meeting point listed on the wrong square, or a free museum evening pinned to the wrong day, can cost a visitor the one free afternoon they have in Stockholm, so anything that fixes a fact on a walk page jumps the queue. Wider questions follow behind, and a few of them turn into a full article rather than a quick reply. There is no mailing list here, and no address is passed on.

Where Tours Are Booked

This website never takes a booking. All 10 walks listed here belong to the guides who run them, and sign-up happens on GuruWalk, or on freetour.com for Dan Vernier's two Old Town tours. The tip at the end is handled there too, because every walk on this site works on a pay-what-you-want basis. What happens here is research and description: honest write-ups of each route so you can choose between them. When a start time shifts, a spot needs dropping, or a payment goes astray, the guide or the platform holds the record and can act on it. This site cannot.

Already booked? Your confirmation email is the place to look, not here. It carries your reference, the meeting point and a direct way to reach the guide. A delayed departure, a group you cannot locate, a date you want to move: only the person leading the walk can sort those out, since the reservation sits with them and this site plays no part in delivering it. Writing here about a live booking only slows the fix down.

Two details in that email deserve a careful read before you set off. The first is where the group meets. Stockholm guides gather their walkers at exact spots, a corner of Stortorget, a statue, a named exit, and the people who arrive to an empty square are usually the ones who skimmed past that line. The second is the cancellation rule, which each guide sets individually rather than this site, since a pay-what-you-want seat is still a seat another walker hoped to fill. On both counts, the guide's own page on the platform has the final word.

Most questions get answered faster by looking around than by writing in. The tour categories sort the 10 walks by area, seven Gamla Stan routes plus Sodermalm, Ostermalm and the Viking history walk, while the guides explain which museums and landmarks let you in free and on what terms. Both pages open straight away, which beats waiting on a reply.
