Description

Meet your guide at the entrance and purchase tickets to the Vasa Museum, then head straight past the ticket line to enter the museum together. Discover the history of the Vasa warship as you explore the museum with your guide.

Begin with details about the Swedish Empire and the war during which the ship was commissioned, and explore how warnings about the ship's seaworthiness were disregarded. Find out why the Vasa eventually sank on its maiden voyage, still within sight of the shipyard where it was constructed.

Then, listen as your guide explains how the ship was later found and ultimately salvaged. See the 19th-century maps used to locate the ship and hear about the engineering involved in salvaging the wreck. Leave your tour with a deeper understanding of the Vasa warship's history, including everything that happened, and how the museum is as it is today.

Top tour!

I ended up having a private tour with Davinia and it was great. She was very knowledgeable and took her time to explain things well.

Una experiencia

Una experiencia excelente en el Museo Vasa. Explicación muy clara, completa y entretenida, con muchísimo contenido interesante. Si no nos lo hubiera explicado, sin duda nos habríamos perdido gran parte de la información y de los detalles que hacen que la visita sea realmente especial. Se nota que conoce muy bien el museo y que disfruta compartiendo todo lo que sabe. Además, fue muy amable, atenta y cercana durante todo el recorrido, pendiente de nuestras dudas y de que no nos perdiéramos ningún detalle. Sin duda, una visita mucho más completa e interesante. ¡Muy recomendable!

Worthwhile tour

Jan was an exceptional guide and most knowledgeable about the Vasa Museum and it's history. It was great having a guide who enhanced the experience with his in-depth commentary and his own personal love of the Vasa and it's history. His engaging personality had both my husband and myself hooked from the beginning. And he made it easy to manage the crowds of people visiting when we were. We consider ourselves fortunate to have experienced this tour. Couldn't have done it without him. You will not be disappointed booking with Jan.
