Highlights
  • Djurgårdsvägen 13 - Meet your guide in front of the Karl X Gustavs Monument, Djurgardsvagen 13, 115 21 Stockholm
  • Vasa Museum - Private tour of the Vasa Museum in Djurgården, Stockholm. It is one of the most visited museums in all of Scandinavia, but you don’t have to worry about wasting time in long lines, as your group will skip the queue at the ticket office and conveniently enter at your reserved time slot. Inside the Vasa Museum you will see the original Vasa warship, which was built in 1628 but sunk on its maiden voyage and was forgotten for centuries in deep waters. Now that the salvaged wreckage is on display, you can fully appreciate its grand scale and detailed features, as it was once the best equipped warship known. The tour will also cover the exhibits of 17th-century clothing, personal hygiene items, kitchen equipment, and military weapons, as well as the gardens, where you’ll see examples of the flowers, herbs, and vegetables grown in Sweden during this period. Your Expert Guide will explain everything in detail, so you will get the most out of your experience!
  • Skansen - Skansen is the world’s oldest open-air museum and offers an intimate look into traditional life in Sweden, in the 19th-century before the Industrial Revolution. Both adults and children can learn about handmade crafts and experience nostalgia by entering authentic 19th-century houses where time has stopped. There is even an open-air zoo where you can see various animal species from the Scandinavian region.
