Visit Sweden and see Lund & Malmö on this day tour to the core of Southern Sweden. Your local guide takes you around and tells you all about these twin towns, each other's contrasts and compliments. Lund's great past once made it more Danish than Copenhagen and is today the town of wisdom. Your guide will tell you about the Vikings, who founded the town 1000 years ago. See the University and the goofy student events that defines Lund today. The guide will also show you the old Cathedral, once the most powerful place in Northern Europe. In Malmö you visit the acclaimed Food Court, giving you plenty of options for lunch, such as Swedish meatballs. Your guide then gives you a walking tour of this every changing town and its unsentimental ways.

I took the tour to Malmo. It was an ok tour. The guide was nice. And once across the bridge he drove us around the city for an hour before giving us time to look around ourselves. It was a nice day.

We were happy to have Nadia as a guide, who was absolutely nice and welcoming. A genuine professional that could quickly notice what triggered our interest along the tour and bring up more interesting details to meet our curiosity. It really just felt like walking around with a friend who is truly passionate about Danish culture herself and together enjoying the beautiful places we were seeing. This tour option turned out perfect for the corona time when everything is closed because, even though you cannot enter the castles or the library or anything, there is a person who can describe it to you in a comprehensive and captivating way. Definitely enjoyed this experience.
