Private Viking Heritage Tour: Sigtuna and Uppsala from Stockholm
You leave Stockholm behind and step into Viking history. This ten hour private guided tour takes you through sacred landscapes and ancient towns. At Jarlabanke Bridge you trace runestones carved with power and pride. Arkils Tingstad whispers of Viking law as wind moves through the grass. Inside Vallentuna Church your fika break brings warmth with coffee and pastries. In Sigtuna narrow streets reveal rune covered stones and echoes of markets. Old Uppsala holds the memory of pagan rituals and silent mounds. Uppsala Cathedral then rises with vaulted arches where faith changed a nation. Each place deepens your journey into a past of myth and legend.
