Guides such as Kevin and Nischel tailor the pace and stops to your interests.
“We—a family of three with a ten-year-old—took a one-hour evening walking tour of Gothenburg with our guide, Kevin. There was never a dull moment; Kevin’s sense of humour and deep knowledge of history made the walk both pleasant and informative. Highly recommended!”
Walk central Malmö with a local guide in a group capped at eight. In about an hour, you’ll see Lilla Torg, St. Peter’s Church, Malmö Castle, Form/Design Center, and Slottsparken. The route can adjust to your interests and pace, though museum, monument, and transport tickets cost extra.
“Unprofessional guide. He was not knowledgeable and not well versed with English. He was not prepared. We wasted our time & money.”
Join a one-hour walking tour through Uppsala’s overlooked past with Sweden History Tours. You’ll visit former poor districts, the 19th-century red-light area, the cathedral, and sites linked to racial biology, slave trade, phrenology, plague, and forced sterilization. Guides Owe and Jonathan are associated with the tour.
“Nice your. Of course we think Sweden is soft and fluffy but it's really all a sham! The zeal with which they tried to hurt mail or kill 'defective' citizens put the Nazis to shame. The guide was a typical older Swedish lady! You will know what I mean.”
Join an authorized Uppsala guide for a fast-moving history walk from Riddartorget through the university quarter, cathedral, old city center, and castle. Hear about Rudbeck’s anatomical theater, Celsius, Linné, royal scandals, plague, student life, and the Botanical Garden. Groups are capped at 20.
“Superbra guide! Vi var ute i sista minuten med att boka stadsvandringen, dock var det inga problem. Jonathan som guidade oss berättade massor av intressanta saker om Uppsala som en del av vårat gäng (Uppsalabor) inte visste. Vi är mycket nöjda! :) Kan starkt rekommendera både för turister och dom som är intresserade av att turista i sin egen stad.”
Pick a quay, a forest, or a long dark night.
