Overview

This private guided sightseeing tour starts with a comfortable drive that passes most of the must-see attractions in Stockholm. It gives you a nice overview over the city. Then the driver takes you to The Royal Domain of Drottningholm which was the first site in Sweden to be listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage. The castle was first built in the end of the seventeenth century and then the queen Ulrika Eleonora ordered the transformation of the interior to what has become the finest example of an 18th-century northern European royal residence that has been inspired by the Palace of Versailles. Besides the palace, the site holds a perfectly preserved theatre from 1766, an amazing Chinese pavilion from 1770 and a grand baroque garden. Today the castle serves as the permanent residence of the present royal family. A must see when you are in Stockholm.
