Really enjoyed this experience, it was a little odd at first as you walk around reading about all the different foods, then at the end you get to try some and do the chilli challenge but we didn’t find it very hot at all 🙈 but we enjoy spicy food anyway

It was a great intro to Malmo, stopping in lots of cute squares and streets and taking it totally at my own pace. If I saw something along the way that interested me I could go check it out and then pick the tour right back up again, so fun!

Very good, I love these self-guided audio tours. You get a lot of information at your own pace and according to your own taste and have the opportunity to get a good first impression of a new city/area.

It lived up to it’s name. Some of the grossest foods and the tasting part didn’t disappoint

Great to discover a city with lots of information at your own pace!
