Explore Sweden’s Historic Castles
Visit some of Sweden’s most iconic castles with an expert guide on this full-day tour visiting three castles. Explore and hear the hidden stories they have to tell!
Visit the Royal castle of Drottningholm, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and two other castles. Both Wenngarn and Skokloster are very well preserved castles from the 1600s. The three castles were built in 1600-1700s Sweden, but some of the foundations date to medieval ages, and some of the stories do too.
These were the places where most famous Swedish nobles of their time lived, and we tell your their stories on this guided tour.
