Jonathan and Helene are the absolute best. Helene picked us up right from the hotel in a Volvo SUV and while technically our driver, she was super knowledgeable about Stockholm (makes sense, she is a certified guide). We picked up Jonathon our guide for the day and we didn’t stop hearing awesome stories about all parts of Swedish history. I know it’s tempting to do the Viking only tour, but I would highly recommend this one instead. We got our fill of Viking history plus broader Swedish history like the regicide of Gustav III. Jonathan was a wealth of information and a very good story teller. Bring some snacks with you, they offered us lunch but we really just wanted to power through to hit as many sites as possible. We visited three churches and a farm with Icelandic horses. Plenty of runes along the way and the owner of the farm actually came out and toured us around (cannot guarantee this happens on every tour). Best part is that you basically tell Jonathan what you want to see and he will curate the trip for you. The five hours flew by, and it was nice to get into the countryside. Highly recommend for anyone interested in history and some beautiful scenery.
