A border town steeped in history, Helsingborg has reinvented itself as a lively destination with great shopping and a few landmarks.

Helsingborg is a town in Skåne County, Sweden. Historic Helsingborg, with its many old buildings, is a scenic coastal city. The buildings are a blend of old-style stone-built churches and a 600 year old medieval fortress in the city centre with more modern commercial buildings. Kullagatan, the main pedestrian shopping street in the city, was the first pedestrian shopping street in Sweden.

We were very satisfied with our trip! It went very smoothly thanks to RoutePerfect. You went over and above my expectations! When we needed to change hotels on our itinerary, your staff was accessible by phone, willing to help, and promptly made the changes that I needed. Thank you for your website, it's very helpful and user friendly.

Thank you for your email, our trip was amazing. I found the whole experience of using RoutePerfect brilliant. It made it so easy to plan your trip, and work out travelling time between each place, so we weren't in the car over 2 hours each journey. The hotels we chose were great. And the reviews were spot on. We loved our whole trip from start to finish and we have already discussed where we would like to go next year. So I will definitely be using RoutePerfect again.
