Explore Sigtuna, Sweden's oldest town, its Viking history, church ruins, and historic Venngarn Palace on this tour from Stockholm.

Description

Discover the historical charm of Sigtuna, with its preserved Viking-era street network and 18th-century houses. Visit the Sigtuna Museum to learn about Sweden's royal and religious history.

Considered "where Sweden begins", the tour includes a visit to romantic church ruins and Viking runestones. Explore the serene shores of Lake Mälaren where these runestones reveal Viking tales and the church ruins provide insights into post-Viking Christian life.

Visit the 17th-century Wenngarn Palace, residence of Magnus Gabriel De la Gardie. Experience well-preserved Baroque architecture and original 17th-century paintings, gaining insights into the lives of Swedish nobility and farmers in the 18th and 19th centuries.

Explore Viby, a farm preserved since the 1700s. This location features iconic red countryside buildings and offers a glimpse into Swedish life from two to three centuries ago.

After 5 hours of exploration, the tour concludes with a drop-off at your hotel.
