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.

I couldn't be more happier and satisfied with the service your company provided in planning our trip and making the process so user friendly and intuitive. All the hotels were in prime locations and close to all the attractions we wanted to visit. You saved us months of planning and research if we were to do it by ourselves. I've been telling all my friends and family about the website. Thank you and congrats on a wonderful service and a great product!!

I wish to express my extreme satisfaction with Route Perfect. Shortly after deciding that Italy was to be the place that I would next visit, I was at first overwhelmed and daunted with the thought of having to book and pay for accommodation in different cities in Italy and having to try and correspond with people whose English is less than perfect! It was at this point that I happened to stumble upon RoutePerfect on the Internet and what a blessing this turned out to be. I would highly recommend RoutePerfect to any person wanting to organise a trip to Europe. RoutePerfect is extremely user friendly. Within moments, I had my trip itinerary worked out and all the hotels booked and paid for. It not only provided maps of the areas, but details of the history of each place and what the worthwhile attractions would be. They also have links to Wikipedia if you were not satisfied with the information that they provided and wanted to read more, as well as links to TripAdvisor if one wanted to read up on the standard and quality of the hotels recommended. When I next travel to Europe or anywhere else, Route Perfect, will most definitely be my first port of call. Thank you for making my life so easy.
