Culinary walks with local insight

Our tours are built around neighbourhood markets, local specialities, and the practical details that make a private tasting walk feel smooth from the start. We confirm the route, tastings, and meeting point in advance so the experience is clear before the day begins.

Each outing is arranged by appointment for small groups, with the route shaped around the interests and dietary information shared during booking. We focus on thoughtful pacing, local context, and recommendations that help guests continue exploring after the tour ends.

Our story

A private food experience shaped by the city

From the beginning, the focus has been on private food experiences that feel local, well explained, and easy to plan.

01

Neighbourhood stops with meaning

Explore Uppsala was founded in 2021 by Sofia Lindström with a clear idea: culinary tours should feel connected to the city, not assembled from random stops. That is why we build each route around local market life, neighbourhood character, and the stories behind the tastings.

02

Simple booking and clear details

Guests often tell us they appreciate how clearly the practical details are communicated before the tour. Meeting instructions, timing, and route notes are handled in advance so the experience can begin without avoidable confusion.

03

Routes shaped around your interests

We also leave room for the route to respond to the group. Within the confirmed plan, the pace can adapt to what becomes most interesting along the way, and we share local recommendations for what to enjoy next in Uppsala.
