SCANDINAVIAN TRAVEL CHECKLIST: DESIGNING A BESPOKE TOUR ACROSS NORTHERN EUROPE TIPS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Introduction Scandinavia is an astonishing part of the world, with cities and landscapes across Denmark, Sweden and Norway that range from vast open wildernesses to eclectic towns, tiny villages and islands perched in the ocean to sophisticated spa hotels and luxury wellness centres.
CREATING A CUSTOMISED TOUR OF THE SCANDINAVIAN COUNTRIES Organising a tour means you don’t need to make any compromises, We’d recommend beginning with a checklist of your must-see places or the type of holiday you’d most love to experience.
for example: Would you prefer to travel in the warmest summer months, during the snowy winter, or during spring and autumn when most cities are quieter?
Are there activities you’ve always wanted to try?
Do you have a particular type of accommodation in mind?
EXPLORING SCANDINAVIA’S CAPITAL CITIES The architecture and history of Scandinavian cities are a big draw for guests. There is a variety of experiences to pick and choose from, such as fine dining, visiting world-famous palaces and museums, walking tours and self-guided tours
Oslo is Norway’s capital, with an urban, contemporary feel, yet surrounded by mountains and greenery.
Our next stop is Stockholm, Sweden – a captivating and beautiful city characterised by cobbled streets winding through Gamla Stan.
If your Scandinavian tour includes a visit to Copenhagen, you’ll see colourful houses lining the harbour and canals.
BOOKING A WINTER TOUR OF SCANDINAVIA Several Scandinavia tour packages are designed around festive themes, including the Polar Express Train Journey, which takes you on an incredible tour through the Arctic Circle, crossing Norwegian and Swedish Lapland.
