Full description

Your tour begins at Stortorget, the main square of Old Town. Hear legends and stories about the city and the people that used to lived here. You’ll walk past some of the best-known landmarks of the area, such as the Royal Palace, the Coronation Church, and the statue of St. George and the Dragon. If you have chosen this option, board the Djurgården ferry for the short trip to the island of Djurgården. On the way you’ll be able to see parts of Stockholm from the water, including Old Town and the island of Södermalm. Stop at the Vasa Museum, the most visited maritime museum in the world.

Just great

The tour was very interesting! Our guide was very nice and told many interesting stories, but could also answer all the questions asked. The pre-booked tickets for the Vasa Museum paid off 100% as they did not wait 5 minutes at the group entrance. The "normal" entrance, however, had an eternally long queue, in which one would have to wait over an hour safely. All in all, it was a great trip and I would definitely recommend it!

Highly recommended .. with Mr. Wirbl

Mr. Although Wirbl only had four of us this morning ... so very good conditions. He has us very comprehensive, very charming and really lovingly guided by his adoptive home ... that was a very informative and really on the scale (old town, ferry and then also an equally fine tour in Vasa) very nice event, which we recommend .... merci, Mr. Wirbl!
