Gothenburg Museum of Art: Private Expert-Guided Nordic Masters Tour

Explore one of Scandinavia's finest art museums — the Gothenburg Museum of Art — on a private guided tour focusing on its extraordinary Nordic and international collections, housed in a stunning neoclassical landmark.

What to expect

Your expert guide leads you through the grand galleries of this 1923 neoclassical palace at Götaplatsen, opening with the museum's celebrated Scandinavian collection — canvases that defined Nordic identity. Then into the international wing for French Impressionists and Old Masters. The rooftop terrace offers a sweeping view down the Avenyn boulevard — Gothenburg's Champs-Élysées. The pace is leisurely, the commentary exceptional, and the experience deeply civilised.
