Excellent guide Cedric! Since my friend and I were the only two guests, we were able to customize the trip a bit to hit sites we especially wanted to see.
Cedric was an exceptional guide! He was so knowledgeable about the history of Sweden and enthusiastic in sharing his knowledge. He was great at pacing the walking tour for our group.
I truly enjoyed the tour with Cedric. His depth of historical knowledge made the experience both enriching and engaging. My sister and I found the tour highly enjoyable, and his storytelling style added a wonderful sense of humor throughout. I would certainly choose to book with him again in the future.
We had one full day in Stockholm and wanted an experienced guide to assist us in seeing some of the main attractions of interest to us. Cedric was outstanding! He was flexible with our schedule and so very knowledgeable.

My dear friend and I had a private tour with Cedric Anthony. He is by far the best tour guide either one of us have been fortunate enough to experience! He is such a kind person and you can tell that he loves what he’s doing! He is super knowledgeable and we really appreciated the fact that we were not rushed and allowed to go at our own pace. At first, I thought the price was high until we actually went on the tour and realized it was worth every penny! I highly recommend booking a tour with Cedric, as you will not be disappointed! Excellent tour with a TRULY EXCEPTIONAL PERSON!!!
