A 1-hour Stockholm canal cruise from the Royal Palace to Djurgården, with audio guide in 14 languages and fika.
“Enjoyable review ride which exposed me different part of stockholm and history. Electronic Guide should have been better .”
Solve a Kurt Wallander murder in Ystad with a GPS audio app, clue triggers, puzzles, and classic half-timbered streets for under $11.
“The apps were not working therefore we never were able to do the tour. I do hope your company reimburses me. Thank you.”
Walk Lund’s main sights from Stortorget to the cathedral and university, with offline English audio on VoiceMap for $9.99.
“Work fine. Many nice stops, but too much around the university and far too little about the cathedral.”
A self-guided audio walk through Malmö with 16 stops, handy quizzes, and free sightseeing, centered on Malmo Central Station.
“Smart concept. Complete tour around Malmö, we paused the tour for visit and lunch at the museum of Malmö house. Afterwards we could just continue.”
A self guided Stockholm scavenger hunt with audio and GPS. Start any time, follow clues at top sights, and walk about 3.1 km.
“This worked really well and was a great way to discover the city. We saw things we may have missed..”
Self-guided GPS audio tour of central Stockholm, from Drottninggatan to the Royal Palace, with design and royal stories.
“Loved it! Not too much, not too little - just enough to explore less known sides of the city and learn something new. The app worked very smooth, it automatically played relevant audios at the right moment, so it felt as if I am walking with personal guide. Headphones recommended for best experience, though not necessarily.”
Self-guided audio stories across Stockholm, from Gamla Stan to Djurgården. No app downloads, GPS-style web map, English.
“During a big family reunion, we were about 20 relatives, we walked all over the old town with Trales. I was the host for this part since I live in Stockholm, but lack all the information about the historical places. Trales helped me to show the guests from various cities in Europe, the highlights and my impression was that they were impressed by the Trales and the old town of course. A great event.”
Self-guided audio walk in Lund traces the 1829 Locus Peccatorum murder, with English narration, free stops, and flexible timing.
“This is a great way to explore Lund. I would have given it 5 stars of the download and registration process wasn't so bad. The app could certainly use a redesign. I still would recommend it but make sure you are ready to go before you leave from your home. When door example you are registering through the tripadvisor you will receive a code which you need to fetch from your email, after which you have to start over. 2 way payment does not work through tripadvisor. But if you have able to install and pay for the tour, it is definitely worth it.”
A GPS audio walk through Stockholm’s oldest streets in Gamla Stan, with music, interactive narration, and no group pressure for $7.75.
“We did not want to be part of a large tour group. But wanted to get some historical insights to Gamla Stan. This was a great self walking tour in Gamla Stan in Stockholm. Very easy to use.”
Self-guided audio walk in Sigtuna with offline GPS in English. Mariakyrkan, rune stones, Viking streets, candy stops, and the Stone Circle.
“I went with my husband and 23 year old son. We all agreed the self-guided tour was great. We will definitely use it for other cities in the future.”
Self-guided 2h20 Stockholm audio walk with 25 English stops, offline mode, and transcripts. Hit landmarks from Kastellholmen to Gamla Stan.
“The ‘meeting point’ is just a suggested place to start, not somewhere you gather anything for your trip. You need to have plenty of battery as it suggests. However, our location on the map did not change so it was always stuck at the same position so self navigation is crucial. The info provided along the way was good at times but there are info boards throughout the city to tell you about each place. We found burst handy to give us a route to see various sorts of Stockholm, some we’d picked out for ourselves and others as suggested on the ap.”
A self-guided audio walk through Stockholm’s witch trials with Gertrud, eight story stops, and free entry sights in 1 to 2 hours.
“Could have been better app, took a long time before it found me, did not show the way well, therefore it took longer, inform better where it starts!Auto-translated”
Old town walks to Arctic nights.
