Highly recommended for 1st timers in Gothenburg, enabling you to decide what to do in the next days with knowledge!
Born and raised in Gothenburg, for 2 hours I will show you the oldest city parts and buildings and their fascinating history as well as the best viewpoints on the city heights. I will point out the best restaurants, bars and shopping streets and other hidden gems during the tour around the old city center.

We really enjoyed our walking tour with Marcus. He spoke excellent English, and took us on an interesting route around the main buildings of the city centre, and it helped us go to a more interesting place for our lunch!

Great guide - wide range of knowledge from history, architecture, culture to “everyday and night life”. Open to questions and dialogue and just a really nice guy who adjusted the pace to the groups ability and energy. Glad we took the time to learn more about Gothenburg, been here several times before but from now on it will be more enjoyable.

An excellent walking tour of Gothenburg, Marcus presented a great overview of the history and settlement particularly referencing the city walls and fortifications. As we walked through the city he highlighted points of interest, restaurants and bars. Would recommend this walking tour as Marcus was informative and enthusiastic about his city

Marcus was very friendly, informative and passionate about Gothenburg. Was really nice to be taken round and shown the best spots. Highly recommend to someone who is looking to get to know the city if it’s their first time visiting. Not too long not to short.

The walking tour led by Marcus was fantastic! He guided us through the major landmarks and uncovered hidden gems, and even provided recommendations afterward. Despite the rain, Marcus's warm and welcoming demeanor made the tour enjoyable :) We all highly recommend it. Thank you, Marcus!
