Stockholm's Gamla Stan hides centuries of Viking and seafaring history behind its cobbled lanes, and the best way to taste it is with a local guide leading you street by street. This small-group walking tour weaves through Old Town's alleyways and courtyards for 7 tastings that trace Swedish food from its coastal roots to its sweetest finish.
Start with golden-fried herring and knäckebröd, then try toast skagen, prawn toast piled with mayo, sour cream, dill and roe, alongside creamy potatoes with lingonberries and cucumber. Watch a candy shop craft artisanal peppermint sweets by hand, sample a classic Swedish cheese at a cosy local haunt, and finish with prinsesstårta, Sweden's iconic cloud-soft princess cake.
Along the way you'll pass the Royal Palace and hear how Gamla Stan's colourful buildings have held their stories for hundreds of years. And somewhere in the mix, Secret Food Tours will slip you a Secret Dish we won't name until it's on your plate.
