Best of Gothenburg Photography and Sightseeing Tour

Meet your guide, a professional photographer, in central Gothenburg. If you plan to take photos, bring your DSLR, compact camera or smartphone along, too. With its waterways, squares and distinctive buildings, the city is beautifully photogenic, so it's not only perfect for sightseeing but also for polishing your photographic skills.

Before you set off on your walking tour, listen to your guide explain how to use any manual settings on your camera to achieve the best results. Then, as you walk, hear more insider tips and professional secrets to help you achieve the best effects.

With your guide beside you, admire some of the most scenic places in the city, and listen avidly as your guide lifts the lid on their fascinating histories and architecture. Head to the harbor to see and take shots of the Lilla Bommen skyscraper and hear why it’s commonly known as the ‘Lipstick Tower.' Stroll along the Avenyn, the main boulevard, and perhaps snap pictures of the buildings, statues and views as you go.

Cross the quaint Vallgraven moat for a stroll around the picturesque Old Town. Linger at elegant Gustav Adolfs Torg (Gustaf Adolf Square) and the conservatory-like Saluhallen indoor market, and stop at the Feskekörka fish market. The latter resembles a chapel, which is why the locals call it the ‘Fish Church’. Take shots of its Gothic-style eaves as you hear how it was built for fishermen’s wives to sell their wares in the late 19th century. Then, head for a viewpoint to soak up and snap fantastic panoramic views over the city.

Your tour concludes in central Gothenburg.
