Explore
Sweden’s second city

Göteborg Walking Tours has the goal to spread local culture and history to travelers all kinds and financial opportunities! Be part of our tours to experience the second city of Sweden with all it’s quirky secrets and unique places!

The main focus of Göteborg Walking Tours is in offering free walking tours! A concept, that is quite spread by now worldwide. This means, that everyone can simply join the offered tours and enjoy! The idea is to tip our tour guides for their work – if you liked the tour obviously. This way, every travelers budget can take part in walking tours and learn more about the place!

WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO

Gothenburg has a history dating back much longer than the official founding date of the city back in 1621.

It’s a place where ideas meet people with a “let’s do this”-mentality. It’s a place where sustainability meets ambition. It’s a place that screams inclusiveness, no matter of your background.

We want to bring people together, give them a glimpse of the history and let them explore why Gothenburg is more than just another city.

FREE TOURS

All of our free tours are available in English language only!

These tours are free, based on the popular concept of free walking tours found all around the world. This means, simply join the tour and if you liked it, you are free to tip’ the tour-guide depending on how much you think the tour was worth. No risk for you, and we will make extra sure that you will enjoy your time! Otherwise, we also love reviews on TripAdvisor, Google Maps or Facebook as forms of gratitude!

‘you can tip the guide cashless, it’s Sweden after all.

Please keep in mind that the tour offer is subject to change.

Make Your Own Tour

Sometimes you just want to have a tour on a specific date at a specific time for your group. Do not worry, we’ve got you covered.

We can customise your experience according to your wishes and give you a memorable time in Gothenburg – with a dash of individuality from our guides.

Islands Trip

Enjoy the beauty of the Southern Archipelago and activate your inner nature-lover with a hike and possibility for a dip in the sea. A true Swedish experience.

The Islands Trip will guide you to one of the islands, help you with identifying the right berries to pick and where it’s safe to swim. No rush, just a calm break from the busting city.

Hiking Trip

In Sweden, we like to call our nearby forests the ‘living room’. Spend a morning there with us and enjoy a dip in a lake and a Swedish ‘kokkaffe’.

The Hiking Trip will guide you through the nearby nature reservoir Delsjön, but show you off-the-beaten path spots and give you an idea of “uteliv”.

We hope you can understand this.

Vegan Christmas Market in Gothenburg

The cold season is upon us! But fear not, that’s just all the more reason to really make it enjoyable with a Vegan Christmas Market in Gothenburg!

This year, right in the centre at Kungstorget, outside Saluhallen. With local artisans and food producers showcasing their handcrafted goodies. From unique crafts to vegan treats, there’s something for everyone.

Both local and invited food trucks from other regions offer you delicious, entirely plant-based food, even adapting them specifically to the market. Some of them reoccurring favourites by now.

So come on down and join the festivities. It’s going to be a Christmas vegan celebration like no other!
