View on StoryHunt

StoryHunt guided tour — a flexible collection of 9 GPS-triggered stories focusing on the Viking foundations of Copenhagen and the notorious conqueror Svend Forkbeard. Unlike a standard linear audio guide, this interactive experience includes quizzes and can be started from any of the featured locations.

As StoryHunt is based in Copenhagen, their local tours often feel more “insider” than global platforms. This experience is well-suited for history buffs who want an engaging, multi-media walk rather than just a passive audio guide.

The tour follows the story of Svend Forkbeard and the early days of the city, bringing the medieval past to life through a mix of audio, text, and images. It covers Viking naval skills, brutality, and religious sacrifices.

The route is flexible; while it officially starts at Kongens Nytorv, you can unlock the nine stories in any order as you move through the city center. Note that the app requires a continuous mobile data connection to trigger the content and quizzes.
