Samen met 2 vriendinnen de stadswanding gemaakt. Onze gids was Jörn, een vriendelijke student die met een leuke dosis humor het e.a. vertelde over de oude stad, het koningshuis en het schip de Vasa. Aanrader om te doen!

Although we didn’t go into any of the sites that day it is a good way to spend an early day of a trip to get an overview and figure out what is worth exploring more closely.Steen Erik J

Excellent guided tour to many historical places, specially interesting for us as Danes. The only unpleasant thing was that the tour ended miles away from the starting point, and we had a long and tiring walk back.
