Explore two of Stockholm’s renowned museums with an expert private guide: the Viking Museum and the amazing open-air Skansen Museum dedicated to Swedish life, culture and industry.
Your first stop is the Viking Museum, completely dedicated to the history of the legendary Vikings in Sweden. The museum is divided into two parts. The first part you’ll visit is the exhibition in which you’ll see examples of the mighty Viking Longboats, and learn about these brutal seafaring warriors. See if you can wield a heavy Viking sword, and feel the weight of a helmet. Learn about their everyday lives, what they ate, how they dressed, their religion and how they lived.
Next up, visit the world's first open-air museum, Skansen, founded in 1891. Here you can immerse yourself in five centuries of fascinating Swedish history. Around 150 traditional buildings from across the country scatter the hilltop, providing a real glimpse of what it was like to be Swede hundreds of years ago.
