“We came to Malmo by train from Copenhagen and booked a walking tour to show us the basics. Svend did more than that. He took us around different areas, old squares, gardens, parks and down to the sea shore. He explained context and shared some of the history with us. Worth the five stars!”
Private 3-hour Viking history tour from Stockholm with runestones, Estrid sites, Jarlabanke’s causeway, a Viking þing, and Vallentuna church.
“We had a great tour, two adults and two 11 year old boys. We got lots of background.information and talked about some of the myths as well as realities of the Vikings. It was fun to get out of the city and to see some of the ancient sites that are preserved to this very day.

“This was by far the worst tour I have experienced. We were so looking forward to learning about the history of Stockholm. Instead, we had a guide, who I’m sure is a perfectly nice person but should not be a tour guide. He spent an odd amount of time talking about irrelevant topics without providing any context or explaining what we were seeing and the significance. It was so bad that we left early as did another pair in our group.”

“Amazing experience. This was a highlight of our trip. Frankie was our tour guide and she was friendly, funny, and engaging. I went on the tour with my teenage daughter and it felt like we were shopping with a friend who happened to know lots of great shops. Frankie went above and beyond - she catered the tour to the types of shops we were interested in and gave us fantastic suggestions for other places to go and things to do. This tour was at the start of our trip and did a great job of helping us understand how to navigate the streets, public transportation and culture. If you…”
