About this walk

Gothenburg was drawn up by Dutch engineers on marshy ground, laid out around canals like a little Amsterdam, and rebuilt again and again after fires, yet its real character was saved by its own citizens. This self-guided walking tour traces that story from the grand cultural square down to the rescued wooden houses of Haga. Everything runs from your phone. You get a clear map of all 8 stops, simple directions through Google Maps, and a short audio story with an interactive quiz at each location. The route runs from Carl Milles' Poseidon at Götaplatsen down the grand Avenyn, past the beloved "Copper Mare" and the 1654 Kronhuset to the old Dutch canal, the cathedral, the neo-Gothic "Fish Church," and finally Haga for a fika among its wooden houses. Start anytime, pause whenever you like, and explore freely. No groups, no schedules. Audio and text available in 7 languages. And it comes with a free eSIM, redeemable once per account, so your map, directions and audio work from the moment you arrive, with no roaming charges.

  • Fabulous walking tour around the main areas of Dubrovnik old city.we were able to stop and listen as many times as we needed as there was also written information too

  • A great way to discover the hidden gems in Sorrento. It provides history, cultural context and a flavour of the place. We would have missed so much had we wandered round without this valuable guide. Thank you for the research and information.
