I had 1 day in Malmo and I wanted to see as much as I could in a short space of time. I really enjoyed the tour, and I have a much better idea of the place and the people here. I thought Cassie was great - good historical knowledge, and an insight into how the locals are. Overall I really enjoyed the tour and I would recommend!

We had a great day with our guide Christel. Such a lovely lady, who speaks perfect English. Because it was early season my husband and I were the only 2 on the tour. We saw loads of the sights and learned much along the way. We particularly enjoyed the cycling session which was a great way of reaching interesting sites outside the central city. Thank you Christel for making our trip to Copenhagen so memorable!

Visit Sweden and see Lund & Malmö on this day tour to the core of Southern Sweden. Your local guide takes you around and tells you all about these twin towns, each other's contrasts and compliments. Lund's great past once made it more Danish than Copenhagen and is today the town of wisdom. Your guide will tell you about the Vikings, who founded the town 1000 years ago. See the University and the goofy student events that defines Lund today. The guide will also show you the old Cathedral, once the most powerful place in Northern Europe. In Malmö you visit the acclaimed Food Court, giving you plenty of options for lunch, such as Swedish meatballs. Your guide then gives you a walking tour of this every changing town and its unsentimental ways. You learn how you can get rich by bad book-keeping, what the Koreans mean by “The tears of Malmö” and see the landmark Turning Torso. After the tour you have the option to stay in Malmö and explore it further in your own pace, or return directly.

Malmo is a quick 30 mins from Copenhagen by train..what a perfect day trip. Best way to see the highlights is a 3 hour bike tour. Ashley was our FANTASTIC guide.

We were happy to have Nadia as a guide, who was absolutely nice and welcoming. A genuine professional that could quickly notice what triggered our interest along the tour and bring up more interesting details to meet our curiosity. It really just felt like walking around with a friend who is truly passionate about Danish culture herself and together enjoying the beautiful places we were seeing. This tour option turned out perfect for the corona time when everything is closed because, even though you cannot enter the castles or the library or anything, there is a person who can describe it to you in a comprehensive and captivating way. Definitely enjoyed this experience.
