Not worth the effort to get there

Craig_S, Jul 2024

The cab ride is about 40-45 minutes. Definitely not worth the ride. The problem is that not a lot is known about the Vikings. We saw some well-preserved and maintained runestones. The tour is listed as 90 minutes, while the guide expects you to be there for two hours. But, he ran out of things to say after about 30 minutes. The scenery is nice. As he drove us around, he pointed out some small bumps on the hills and said there might be a Viking buried there. The guide was nice and knowledgeable, but there isn't enough to learn and/or see to make it worth the cost and effort.

Response from Host, Jul 2024

Hi, thanks for your feedback and thanks for taking your time to leave this review. Sadly there ain't a lot of remains left and no standing houses or preserved viking buildings to se; what we have are rune stones and grave fields like the bumps on the hills. Im also so sorry that you did get this impression out of the tour you booked as that isn't ok, and I need to speak with the guide in question cause it isn't an acceptable feeling from a guide I hire in locally due to me being sick to not being able to speak about the time period I hire him in to do. I usually advice to take a bus due to cab rides being expensive and we've a good bus system here but you're right that it is a bit out from stockholm city, due to not being any clear remaines to se inside Stockholm proper. Usually we do two or max three stops on this particular tour depending on time. Thanks for telling me about the tour time glitch, I'll check and make sure the tour time is properly decribed. I'm however happy you liked the scenery, places and the stones. /Owe
