Absolute recommendation - My wife and I were at the Vasa Museum today and had booked a German-speaking tour. We were fortunate that we had our guide Daniela to ourselves and so enjoyed a very private tour. Daniela has described all the information about the Vasa, her fate and also about the history all around so grippingly that the two hours passed as if in flight. Her winning and sympathetic nature, as well as the expertise imparted was unique and can only be highly recommended.

Caoimhe was an incredible guide! - Our guide Caoimhe (sounds like kwee-va) was absolutely incredible. She made the entire tour informative, engaging, and incredibly interested, even to our young girls. She was so good that another bloke tagged onto our group just to listen. High priase, and I hope she has success in whatever she does. She was a great guide!

Excellent guide! - I visited with Pedro, in Spanish, who has told us in detail everything about the Vasa. His passion for sailing is rating, which is a plus to understand why it sank, how it was sailed and the work to recover it. Highly recommended!

Captivating VASA Museum tour - Our guide, Caoimhe was friendly and wonderful. Very knowledgeable and assured everyone stayed together and was able to hear her. She was on time and rounded everyone up to start the tour on time. I love that she texted us a picture and dropped a pin for the meeting place the morning of the tour so we felt comfortable meeting up. Definitely do this tour. The VASA is amazing.

Everyone in the group was kind. Thanks to this guided tour and the explanations I was able to better understand the history of the Vasa. Thank you for this experience.

The experience with Trip advisor regarding this tour, is the tour guide change the time so we missed it. - The tour guide was a no show. I later saw that the tour had been changed to a different time. This was only stated on the Tripadvisor site, no email, no text. I'm still waiting for my refund.
