Explore the heart of Stockholm with a licensed guide!
100 years ago, Södermalm was a poor district with cramped residential buildings for workers. Today, Södermalm is a trendy area with restaurants and shops.
I'll show you lush environments and charming houses from the 1750s. I'll tell about the people who lived here and about their everyday life in both joy and sorrow.
A footbridge leads over to the small island of Riddarholmen, where Riddarholm Church is located. Today, this place is a museum with many Swedish kings buried under it. Also under the church are the remains of a monastery from the 13th century.
On the next island is Gamla Stan, one of the best preserved medieval cities. We'll wander along the narrow cobbled streets with buildings painted in gold. I also want to show you some of Stockholm's most beautiful doors, and the Great Church as well as the royal palace.
Stockholm tour on feet, by boat, subway and tram!
You may know that Kungsholmen is one of Stockholm's larger islands, and here stands the city's symbol: City Hall. Stockholm's subway system has more than 110 kilometers of art along its stations. We see three of these stations when we travel from the Town Hall via Centralen to Kungsträdgården.
Kungsträdgården is Stockholmers' own living room. Here, we arrange many different events throughout the year.
Gamla Stan is a living museum with attractions, restaurants, cafes, bars and shops. Alongside the charming cobbled streets are Stockholm Cathedral, the Nobel Prize Museum and the Royal Palace.
Djurgården is a green oasis in the middle of Stockholm. The city's most famous museums and cultural attractions are here, including the Vasa Museum, the Viking Museum and Skansen.
The Vasa is the world's best-preserved 17th-century ship and a unique art treasure. More than 98 percent of the ship is original, and it is decorated with hundreds of carved sculptures.
Exploring Uppsala and the Viking history together
Uppsala is one of Sweden's largest and oldest cities, and until the 13th century, it was called Östra Aros. Today, it's world-renowned for its university, magnificent cathedral and the legacy of emeritus scholar Carl Linnaeus.
5 km north of today's Uppsala, was the old Uppsala. 1, 500 years ago, it was a place of trade and of worship where we sailed around by boat. It was also an important center for trade and meetings. Even today, we see remains of the place where the assembly met and created laws, as well as some burial mounds from the 6th century where kings were buried.
Sweden only became Christian in the 12th century, and in 1164 Uppsala became the country's religious center. The church was destroyed in a fire and a rise in land made it impossible to continue sailing here. The Archbishop's office moved 5 km south to Östra Aros and in 1286 we founded the new Uppsala. A new cathedral was built and consecrated in 1435. Uppsala has many green parks and nice cafes to discover too.
