Visiting Stockholm 6/21-24/25 at end of cycling for 2 weeks in Norway. 2015 Scandinavia lists 2 guides Hakan Franden/Marita Bergman. Are they still guiding or is there an update. Other guides used by recent travelers for a half or full day? Not adverse to walking.
Will be staying at the Hotel Reisen by Hyatt near the water in Gamla Stan.
Thank you.

I'm not sure if this will help. I was just on the Scandinavian tour in July 2024. Our Rick Steve's guide was Gabriella (Gabby) Ylvasdotter, and she was a fantastic guide. I think she mentioned that she also does other tours on the side when not leading a Rick Steve's tour. In addition, her father Hakan (may be the same Hakan you referred to) was our local guide. Surprisingly, there is also another family member who gives tours of the City Hall. Gabby's mother, Ylva. All three were wonderful.
Continuation of my previous post. I found Hakan Franden and Ylva Gunillas dotter on Association of Qualified Tourist Guides of Stockholm. The website is guidestockholm.com. I have been trying to track down these guides for a friend of mine who is also planning a trip to Stockholm. Hope this helps you, as well.
I took a tour with Håkan last year. My sister and I hired him for a couple of hours. He was outstanding! He met us at our hotel and gave a tour tailored to our interests. Here's where you can find him: https://www.guidestockholm.com/en/guider/hakan-franden-2/
