On our own took the long walk into town to attend Medieval Week, an annual festival attended by 100's of people from nearby towns in period costumes. RCI didn't even mention that this festival was being held. Shame on them. ...
Visby- a favorite spot for us. You have never seen a medieval festival till you have been here. The only ones not in authentic wear and gear was tourists from the ship. So amazingly authentic and not the hype of festivals we americans are used to. We were very disappointed the ship left so early so we couldn’t see the evening games. cute town easily walkable.

Great little place we loved it here one of our highlights walked into town despite Royal Caribbean ‘strongly’ urging people to book their overpriced excursion tours. ...
Our favorite port on the tour. The old city is beautiful, quaint and filled with history, There is a free walking tour offered at 10:00 and 1:00. Book early! ...
This is a great port to explore on you own. There were only a couple of excusions offered and were sold out but really you are just fine on you own. We were the biggest boat to ever dock there! ...
