Highlights
    What to Expect
    Depart from the your centrally located Stockholm hotel in a comfortable car or minivan depending on the size of the group. Travel north into the picturesque Swedish countryside. Feel how you start to move back in time as you sweep through the lovely landscape.

    Visit Broby Bro, a well excavated Viking grave field. Learn about how the Vikings buried their dead and what happened to them in the afterlife. Hear the story about Estrid, a aristocratic Viking woman in the Stockholm region. 

    Stop next at Jarlabankes rune stone bridge in Täby. Hear the intriguing tale about Jarlabanke, the great Viking lord who was a super-magnate. Learn about the Viking bridges and roads that tied Sweden and laid the foundation to our nation. 

    Next, visit a Viking parliament and feel the presence of ancient power, imagine the Viking men sitting in the parliament making mighty decisions. 

    Last but not least, head to Sigtuna. This is Sweden's oldest city, founded in 970 AD by King Erik Segersäll of the Svea Kingdom. Learn about its role in our history as we walk the Viking age-originated main street with its prettty 18th century houses. 

    Transport back to Stockholm is included.

    Important Information
    Departure Point
    Traveler pickup is offered
    All central hotels, ports and other accommodations within 5km from Stockholm central station. No pick up at Nynäshamn harbour but instead travel directions to meeting place in Stockholm.

    If your tour departs from the cruise pier:

    If your ship arrives at S165 and S167 STADSGÅRDEN: Please walk a few hundred meters away from your ship while following the BLUE/GREEN lines. Go past the fences and guards, and your guide will wait there, with a sign saying "Viking Tours" on an A4-paper.  NOTE: If you enter any other harbour number in STADSGÅRDEN than S165 or S167 please go outside the fences and guards and the guide will meet you there on the time of the tour.

    If your ship arrives at F638 FRIHAMNEN: Upon debarking the ship, please go through the terminal building. Once you go past the sliding doors (everyone else that departs the ship will walk out this way), the guide will meet you just outside the sliding doors. The guide will be holding an A4-paper saying "Viking Tours". NOTE: If you enter any other harbour number in FRIHAMNEN than F638 please go outside the fences and guards and the guide will meet you there on the time of the tour.

    If your ship arrives at V523 VÄRTAHAMNEN: Walk from your ship towards the tourist buses, which is less than 10 meters from the ship hull. The guide will wait for you at the tourist bus area, near the buses, with an A4-paper, which says "Viking Tours." The guide will then direct you to the tour vehicle. NOTE: If you enter any other harbour number in VÄRTAHAMNEN than V523 please go outside the fences and guards and the guide will meet you there on the time of the tour.

    If your Ship Arrives at NYNÄSHAMN: NO PICK UP INCLUDED HERE. That due to it being 50km away from Stockholm central station. We recomend you to contact and with us decide a meeting place in Central Stockholm. We will give directions how to go there either by train or that take one of the cruise busses going from the harbour into Stockholm.

    If you are unsure of which pier your ship is arriving at, please check with the cruise line.

    Viking History Small Group Tour
    The guides were very likeable and welcoming. They were also well-informed and happy to answer a range of questions. It was an enjoyable day for all of us, including my teenage daughter and elderly mother. I'm glad we chose this one.

    Disappointing- poor value for money.
    Bit of a chaotic start as the other members of the tour were late getting to their meeting point which meant that we waited over an hour (in a field in the middle of nowhere) for them to show up with the tour guide. Then when they arrived we were informed that we had to travel…
