About this experience
Meet your guide at your accommodation. From there, board a tour vehicle and head north through the countryside, move back in time as you travel. Stop first at Broby Viking graveyard, to learn about a real Viking woman named Estrid who was buried here. Cross the 495-foot (150-meter) Jarlabanke's bridge, built by a powerful Viking leader centuries ago. Listen to a message written on a rune stone that flanks the bridge and hear stories from real Viking persons that lived here 1000 years ago. At the Viking parliament, imagine the powerful leaders making important decisions on that very spot and learn about Viking society and culture. Continue to Vallentuna church to see a famous collection of Jarlabanke’s runestones. At the end of your tour, return to Stockholm and be dropped off at your accommodation.

Nice half day of Vikings
Olaf did a great job sharing Viking history with us. It’s a nice morning activity and we got yo see a bit of the Swedish countryside. Lovex the rune stones and the old church and cemetery. Worth 3-4 hours to learn more about Vikings and Sweden.

Great experience
Jakob was funny, informative and considerate. He was careful to differentiate historical facts from lore. He further enlivened the tour by showing his personal Viking reenactment apparel . Vehicle was clean and had functioning air conditioner for a relatively warm Stockholm day. It was well spent money.

Fun and informative trip
Amazing tour! Tor was a great guide and very knowledgable about the history and any questions we had. He also picked us op from the hotel which was very convenient. We learned a lot about the viking history of Stockholm and had a great time. Even got to see some frogs! If you’d like to learn about history and see beautiful nature, you should consider this trip.

Great excursion to the countryside!
Excellent experience. Thor was very knowledgeable and provide a lot of historical insight into Viking ways. It was great to get out of the city into the countryside and see the rune stones. The van was comfortable and we were just 2 families so not a huge tour with a ton of people. Highly recommend for learning more about viking history.

Viking Life and Ancestry
Thor was an excellent guide! We learned more about runes and Viking life and Viking exploits and breadth of military and trade conquests. He was very knowledgeable and had a great communication style.

Why this scores 77
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
3-4h Viking History Short Day Tour from Stockholm: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Stockholm.
How much does 3-4h Viking History Short Day Tour from Stockholm cost?
+
Prices start at $107 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Stockholm usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 3-4h Viking History Short Day Tour from Stockholm take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Stockholm is not rushed.
Is 3-4h Viking History Short Day Tour from Stockholm worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 77 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 54 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Stockholm, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 3-4h Viking History Short Day Tour from Stockholm?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 3-4h Viking History Short Day Tour from Stockholm suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 3-4h Viking History Short Day Tour from Stockholm?
+
Around 19 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Stockholm can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Stockholm and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 3-4h Viking History Short Day Tour from Stockholm start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Stockholm within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Stockholm?
+
On Outty we rank every Stockholm experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Stockholm: Walking Tour of the Old Town, Best of Stockholm: Small Group Walking Tour (Max 10, 3 Hours), Vasa Museum Guided Tour, Including Ticket & Guide. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Stockholm?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Stockholm?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
