Amazing History - This tour was excellent. Our guide Gabriel was extremely knowledgable. We visited many sites that combined help tell the story of the Viking era. From farm paddocks to an old village, to churches, Rune Stones, mounds and more. Fascinating tour.

Very enjoyable and worthwhile tour! - The guide, Gabriel, was fantastic. He was exceptionally knowledgeable and very engaging. His commentary on what we were seeing and his discussion of the Vikings and of Swedish history were clear, informative, and entertaining. He was also very concerned to ensure we were comfortable during the tour and were seeing all we wanted to see and that he was answering all our questions about Sweden and life in Sweden.

Amazing Viking past! - Calle was an outstanding guide! Truly knowledgeable about his craft and did an outstanding job of bringing the Viking culture to life. We saw many areas around Stockholm that had many old runes. Truly amazing. Calle was exceptional and we were so lucky to have him for our private guide. Thank you for the experience of a lifetime.

Disappointed with tour schedule - Emma (guide) was wonderful and our driver (Bianca) was terrific. Only concern this was a Viking tour and felt the new town of Upsala should have been omitted We wasted time at a church and then didn’t get to see the Viking Museum in old Upsala as it was closing in two minutes. Very disappointed! We chose this tour as we wanted Viking history not another European church!
