Good to know

This tour will take place rain, snow or shine. If you are unsure how to dress warmly for Stockholm's winters, check out our YouTube video about what to pack: https://youtu.be/wwipWtTmELs?si=YtKMX4wxPtaDgRc- The Christmas light displays start only around 3 pm as of November 16th, 2025 (so you won't see most lights turned on if you choose the morning tour). The Old Town Christmas market is only open from November 22nd to December 24th, but there are other markets we will refer you to if you want to discover them on your own.
