Haga is one of the oldest neighbourhoods in Gothenburg. The pedestrian street Haga Nygata is lined with well-preserved houses, many in the characteristic Gothenburg style called "landshövdingehus" with one floor in brick and the rest in wood. Today they house plenty of independent shops and cafés.
Linnéstaden, commonly known as Linné, is a laid-back neighourhood with plenty of local charm. By day a tempting mix of independent shops and cafés and by night a bustling borough with eateries and bars.
Second Long Street) is a street in Gothenburg, Sweden. It starts west of Haga at Järntorget and ends at Masthuggstorget. The street is renowned for its many restaurants, bars, galleries and record shops. Although the street has a dodgy past its reputation has now been redeemed. It is now a "magnet for creative types" according to Lonely planet. The tourists have yet to find this street but alternative Gothenburgians love the street for its "authenticity".

My husband and I took the Bike Tour with Nils, www.bikegothenburg.com, Thursday, Jun 25, 2026. Nils created a fun two-hour ride as an introduction to this fabulous city, and he is a delightful host and guide. We highly recommend the bike tour if you are a visitor. Local residents would enjoy this ride too, especially if they are welcoming guests to their city. Nils’ route takes you through the neighborhoods, to historical sights, and to point out numerous museum and entertainment options in Gothenburg. We travel throughout Europe and the USA doing our best to support local entrepreneurs. Nils offers a top-notch experience and he is a local business person. Top!
a beautiful, fun, engaging experience, cool guide
The tour was great, a ‘must do’! It makes you smile because the guide is really fun. He knows a lot about the city, the perfect combination for me!
Super nice experience. Our guide Nils captivated us with historical, practical, geographical facts as well as humorous snacks. Just perfect!
Nils is an amazing guide, and with his distinctive bicycle he earns the title of "most famous anonymous person in Gothenburg". Everybody waves and smiles when they see him leading his tours. On this tour you will learn about Gothenburg history and how it is today, all delivered from a native resident who knows the facts and colorful history. The bike route is easy effort. E-bike option is available but for most people it's not necessary. Nils leads you through a two-hour ride with stops for stories, covering 12km of travel. He keeps the group safe and together, and answers every question. Fun!
We booked the city tour and then rented bikes for two more days. The tour was very good. The guide Nils is from Gothenburg and knows the city and its history very well. The rental of the bikes went very well. We also received bike bags, helmets, and locks. The bikes were in very good condition. He even offered the service of picking up the bikes with his truck in Alingsås, which is about 60 km from Gothenburg. I can highly recommend both the tour and the bike rental!
Many thanks for this great review! Made my summer! It was such a pleasure having you on the tour, say hello to your family and have a great summer!
This was a superb bike tour, led by Nils who was a fantastic guide, funny, informative and professional. The cycling was easy and covered lots of interesting parts of the city that we can then revisit at our leisure. Highly recommend to anyone to do this.
We had a wonderful time with Gothenburgs number 1 celebrity I’d highly recommend it to anyone it was really good fun very educational and very easiy in regards the actual cycling part
What a great way to experience Gothenburg! Such a fun and lively tour. And, you learn so much about the city.
We rode thru all the historic and shopping areas in Gothenburg. Wish the tour had been slightly longer to allow us to shop a little in the Haga district - lots of super cool little stores and restaurants. Be aware that Gothenburg is a bit hilly and you’ll have to exert yourself a bit!
