Traveler Reviews

What a nice tour given by Cecilia. She was friendly, helped our group bond but also kept us moving. The tour highlighted the very medieval beautiful city of Lund..with its ancient cathedral and great huge working astronomical clock chime. I actually spent lots of time researching it on YouTube later. Malmo had 2 parts, the very modern totally sustainable city and the "old section. The Saluhalle for lunch was a treat..the Swedish meatballs lunch plate was the best I have ever had.

Cecilia was great, very knowledgeable of history and polite. Picked up us from Copenhagen on time, drove through the Oresund bridge took us to Sweden side. Lund which is historical, with beautiful 'older' architectural buildings, and Malmo, which has both old and modern style building and beautiful view of the ocean and Oresund bridge. She brought us to local food market for delicious to meat balls and potatoes for lunch, walked us to Malmo city center and showed us the train station. Tour ends around 3:00 pm, since the train ticket is good for the entire day, I had the entire afternoon to browse the surrounding stores, carnival rides, church before heading back to Copenhagen. Word of advise: Choose the 1st class ticket back to Copenhagen when booking this tour, it's only a few euros more than standard ticket price, can enjoy some quietness on 40 minutes train ride back.

Such a great tour! Petra was our guide and she was very friendly and knowledgeable. She gets 5 stars! I liked how we had will the freedom to continue exploring Malmö at the end of the tour or to hop on the train back to Copenhagen. The Swedish meatballs she recommended for lunch at the food bizarre was delicious. I will definitely recommend this tour to my friends as a fun activity for the day!

Our guide took us all over and explained lots of history about these cities. Wonderful tour with lots of time to ask questions and strool along the beautiful streets and seaside

Sold as a day trip tour in fact it was finished at 3pm which included 1 hour for lunch

Transport was an old small Transit van with seats. the van was full and uncomfortable

The guide was nice but not really engaged in informing us of details unless asked, she was also the Driver

The pick up point was quite isolated.

The trip back was by train with out the guide who stayed in Sweden
