Your tour starts out at the old Hanseatic harbour at Almedalen, where the Powder Tower can be seen, which is the oldest tower of the Visby city wall.
Driving through the countryside south of Visby, you’ll stop off to visit one of the many fine examples of the medieval churches which can be found in Gotland. At the imposing burial- place, the Ship Grave, marvel at the stones standing on their edge in the shape of a ship. It was believed that the ship would carry the departed chieftains on their voyage to eternity.
On the return journey, pause at the picturesque fishing village of Gnisvärd, dating back to the 1700’s. You’ll also make a stop at Gallows Hills view point, offering a wonderful view of Visby and the coast.
