Stunning Scandinavia

This beautiful region, consisting of the kingdoms of Norway, Sweden and Denmark, is nestled to the very north of Europe, and has a distinct feel quite apart from its neighbours.

Each country can be explored indivdually, however with excellent ferry links and great road networks, it is possible to travel between the countries too. Though they share a number of cultural attributes each has a very individual character. Tour themes here can include Viking history, Royal Palaces, WWII history, walking tours, trains and general scenic trips.

Given the location, an extended stay to incorporate northern Europe as well as the UK is possible. As an alternative, exploring the Baltic states can be combined with a tour to this region too. With their unassuming and friendly manner, the Scandinavians always offer a warm welcome to their visitors.
