Classic Scandinavia
< View Other Tours
Tour Overview
For the quintessential Scandinavian experience, take on an eight-day adventure and see all the best bits of Finland, Sweden and Norway’s capital cities. As well as Helsinki, Stockholm and Oslo, you’ll also visit a few lesser-known spots, like the village of Tallberg, which sits on the scenic shores of one of Sweden’s largest lakes. Take city tours with your handy local leader, try the cultural experience of Fika, learn how to bake cinnamon rolls and paint horses and walk through the forest to an outdoor lunch experience with a local host. Sail through Sweden’s archipelago of 30,000 islands, taste some delicious local snacks and drinks in Norway and balance it all with some free time to explore at your own pace – urban sauna on the Oslo fjord, anyone?

Trip Highlights
Why you'll love this trip
- •
See all the major Scandi capitals in just one trip – Helsinki, Stockholm and Oslo – while also exploring some smaller, lesser-known places like Tallberg, a lakeside village sitting in the scenic Swedish countryside.
- •
Indulge in the local experience of Fika – the popular pastime of coffee and sweets is embedded in the culture and means more to the Swedish than just an afternoon pick me up. Then, bake cinnamon rolls with the locals in Tallberg.
- •
Take a gentle walk through the forest of Tallberg, followed by an outdoor lunch prepared with your local host getting a proper ‘taste of Dalarna’ (a county in central Sweden).
- •
Sail Stockolm’s scenic archipelago on a 3-hour boat tour through the blue waters and many green islands, soaking up the gorgeous landscape.
- •
Explore Oslo with your local leader on a walk around the city, the Opera House and the harbour. Then, try some popular Norwegian snacks, beer and go for an aquavit (spirit) tasting.
