Walk through Uppsala with an authorized guide and connect its cathedral, university, castle, and botanical garden. Hear sharp stories about Linné, Celsius, Rudbeck, student scandals, a royal murder, and the city’s rushed rebuilding. Guides such as Anette and Jonathan have led the walk.

“Guiden var kunnig, men för att vara en stadsvandring var det inte mycket till vandring. Vi stod mest still och så pekade hon på saker. Skulle önskat en lite tydligare röd tråd också - nu kändes det lite hoppigt.”
