Join us for an exclusive private day trip to Uppsala, Sweden's 4th largest city, rich in Viking heritage and archaeological sites.

Uppsala Private Day Trip from Stockholm

We will pick you up from your hotel in central Stockholm to begin the day trip to Uppsala. This city has historical significance as the former site of royal coronations and funerals.

Upon arrival, we'll first visit the Uppsala Cathedral, built in 1273 and the largest cathedral in Scandinavia. The seat of the Swedish archbishop is located here.

After a 30-minute exploration at the cathedral, we will proceed to Gamla Uppsala, an archaeological site from the Viking era. You will have one hour of free time to explore the burial mounds and the on-site museum, which provides further insight into Sweden's Viking past. The grave of Anders Celsius, among other historical figures, is also located here.

Next, we will visit Uppsala Castle, a 16th-century structure where you will learn about the Sture murders. You will have one hour of free time at the castle, along with an opportunity to have lunch at local restaurants.

The final stop is at Uppsala University, where we will spend 20 minutes discussing its history, which dates back to 1477, at the main building constructed in 1887.

After 7 hours of exploring, we will return you to your hotel in Stockholm.
