STOCKHOLM. 7hrs. What do Swedens’s first University and largest cathedral have in common? Uppsala, of course! From former scientist to students of today, discover this intellectual hot spot on our Uppsala’s Secrets Private Driving Tour.
The story about the tour
Approximately 60 minutes by transport from Stockholm we find Uppsala. A picturesque, easily accessible, cosy city, with cultural treasures that have remained hidden from the large crowds of tourists primarily sightseeing in Stockholm. The fourth largest city in Sweden, it’s the perfect twin city to Stockholm, making for an excellent opportunity to see two destinations in one trip.
What are these secret gems Uppsala has to offer, you ask? First, a man with love for botanical gardens and living organisms. Friends with royalty and teacher to many, he is still famous for his work with plants and animals. His connection to Uppsala? We’ll discuss his work and share his tale at the Botanical Gardens behind Uppsala Castle. Can you guess to whom we are referring?
In the meantime, things are getting “warmer” as we walk closer to another treasure in Uppsala. This one is two-fold: it’s the oldest remaining university building at Uppsala University (which also happens to be the oldest university in Sweden), and it contains discoveries and inventions developed by famous scientists from the university. Can you guess where we are?
Stepping back outside, we stroll down the street in the direction of the largest cathedral in Scandinavia, Uppsala Cathedral. Our quest for the secrets of Uppsala brings us to the tomb of one of Sweden’s most famous kings (he’s probably the Danes’ least favourite king). Do you know who this is?
Travelling by our very own private transport to and from Uppsala, we will be accompanied by the quaint Swedish countryside. Having gone off the beaten path to visit a unique destination in Sweden, we’re back in the capital. You’ve now unlocked the door to Uppsala’s Secrets. The question is, can you keep them?
Tour includes: Private Guide, Private Transport, Gustavianum Entrance Fee, Uppsala Cathedral Entrance Fee, Botanical Garden (Free Entry)

Happy Nobel Day! 💡 As Nobel Week was cancelled in 2020, Nobel lectures, prizes and banquets were replaced with Nobel Week Lights - light installations inspired by Nobel Prize-awarded findings and laureates. As the festivities are now back, we sure hope that we are so lucky that the artwork brightening up the city during the darkest month of the year; is a December tradition that has come to stay. 💫
🇸🇪
Nobeldagen är här! 💡 Nobelveckan blev inställd 2020, och istället för Nobelföreläsningar, prisutdelning och bankett genomfördes Nobel Week Lights som är ljusinstallationer inspirerade av Nobelpris på olika platser i Stockholm. Det blev så uppskattat att det genomförs i år igen trots att Nobelveckan är återinförd. Har vi tur så är det en decembertradition som kommit för att stanna. 💫

It’s a contested issue amongst numerous Baltic connected countries as to who invented the Ice-skate. Was it the Finns or the Dutch? All of this is irrelevant because the best city to ice-skate in is Stockholm. If you want to show off your Quadruple Axel in front of the masses, the ice-rink in Kungsträdgården is the perfect location. ✨⛸️✨

Don't let its controversy cloud your curiosity as Christianshavns characteristic slanting roofs and canals, as well as the tremendous Church of Our Saviour, are well worth seeing. Not to forget the Færgecafé or Café Parterre who are both worth visiting.

A few hundred years ago, if you asked a Norwegian how old they were they might reply “I have seen forty winters!” Every year of life was a success! Now, living conditions are of course much improved, but there is no such thing as a mild winter here. Bring thermal underwear, wool and grow a beard... if you can. ❄️☃️☃️
Of course, if you love the snow and want to ski, then you're in the perfect place, and you get to see the beauty of Oslo in a truly Nordic light! The canvas of white snow - unpredictable but usually arriving in November/December - can provide a canvas of light across the city that makes up for the few hours of sunlight the people of Oslo get to enjoy. While still beautiful, it's best to stay inside! ✨✨

The temperature might not be super-cold in Winter in Copenhagen, but strong winds make it quite chilly. 🌬 The city is still quite magical. 🌟 The Christmas markets open already in the middle of November so that you can warm up with a hot Gløgg! Expect 10 to 13 rainy days per month.

The first snow is here with us in Stockholm! 😍❄
Södermalm (the South Island) is the largest of all the islands that make up Stockholm. For the majority of Stockholm's existence, it has been the home of the poor and the working class. Not anymore! Today, the hipsters have well and truly transformed Södermalm into a trendy place to live, work and play. 🐱👓

What's a better winter activity than museum hopping? Not much, if you ask us. Let us introduce you to Bygdøy (also known as museum heaven), the peninsula in Oslo where you find a big collection of museums close to each other. Perfect! ❄️

Our favourite time of the year is here! 🎅🏻🎄 If you are in Stockholm for this festive season, make sure you make it a tasty one 😋 and try:
🌟 Freshly baked saffron buns, also called “lussekatter”, preferably filled with almond paste.
🌟 Gingerbread cookies and having them with blue cheese, it’s an odd yet delicious combo, we promise!
🌟 Freshly made candy cane, if you pop into @gamlastanspolka and find them baking the candy canes, they often let you try the mix. Soft candy cane should be a thing!
