We had a very enjoyable half day Viking history tour which incorporated visiting a former Viking farm, a causeway, a meeting place and Sigtura. Along the way we were introduced to runes that had helped to identify these places and learnt about the people that lived there. There were only four of us on the tour, so whilst it was a public tour, it felt very personal and our guide Olof, was very accommodating. For example, we chose not to stop for lunch so that we maximised our time in Sigtura. I would thoroughly recommend this tour. I had contemplated the 8 hour tour and part of me wished that I had chosen the longer tour, but I think this was actually a better choice as I ended wanting more. Whilst we were driving around, Olof also chatted a lot about Sweden in general and it was lovely to have those conversations with him. He also recommended we take the boat trip from Stockholm to Drottningholm Palace which we did the next day and enjoyed enormously.

Not only was our driver, Natalie, amazing, but so too was our guide Karin. Both women were personable, enthusiastic and so very gracious. Natalie’s driving was safe and she too offered so much insight into the history of Sweden. Then, Karin, was a wealth of information about Uppsala. The entire day was fabulous from start to finish!

An excellent educational day with Jakob! Just finished a full day tour with Swedish history tours. It was very interesting and informative day and we got to see a number of different sites, including Viking runestones and places where the Vikings gathered as well as burial mounds predating the Vikings. Jakob was an excellent guide and it was a great day.
