I am very happy to recommend this tour. My tour guide, Natalie, was most informative. We viewed a variety of interesting sights in the Gamla Stan, ranging from the grand - the castles and cathedrals, to the minute - the smallest statue, the narrowest street. Each fact was presented in a friendly, informative way, taken at a pace that allowed me to indulge in my hobby of photography. As an introduction to the old town, it should not be missed.

An experienced guide, who lead us at a reasonable pace through the melee of a packed tourist town. He did what any good guide should do; informed us of many facts we could not have found anywhere else.

To be recommended; our tour guide was knowledgeable and too us at a leisurely pace through the city. As you can cover considerably more ground than a walking tour, I would recommend this in preference.

The tour of the city was interesting. However I noted that our chef was wearing dirty clothes; the food was certainly not worth the money paid. That said, the service was good and the staff were very friendly.

A good orientation to the city. What I did not know was going to happen was that we were going to see one of the diamond factories, so this came as a pleasant surprise. I now know what at €41,000 diamond looks like!

Our guide was truly knowledgeable. As a native of Tahoe for many years, he not only knew where to take us to get really stunning shots of Tahoe and the surrounding areas, he also knew the local lore and people. He was able to fill us in on a lot of the local history, including what happened last year when they had a bad forest fire and the effect it had locally. This was not really necessary for the tour, but it made it far more interesting.

My Review
In one sense, this is the quintessential Californian experience I suspect there are few other parts of the world doing Segway tours. The instruction we received was excellent and the guides knowledgeable and good fun into the bargain. The group sizes were small, which helped. It was fun being part of the tourist attraction of the waterfront as well! I enjoyed myself so much, I signed up for and went for the advanced tour 3 days later.
