Scandinavia tours Highlights

Faroe Islands, Denmark

The Faroe Islands have one of its own magical wonders. Get ready to witness the Sorvagsvatn (the Floating Lake), a unique natural wonder, known for its optical illusion that makes it appear as though it's floating above the ocean. As the tour leader guides you to stand in a specific angle, the lake seems suspended in mid-air, creating a stunning and surreal visual effect. 

Gamla Stan (Old Town), Sweden

Walking down the stillness of Stockholm’s famous old town, keep a lookout for winding cobblestone streets with colourful buildings and medieval architecture. As they say, Gamla Stan transports visitors to another era! It’s also home to  iconic landmarks, such as the Royal Palace and Storkyrkan (Stockholm Cathedral). Stick around till dusk where the old town takes on a special charm, as the warm glow of streetlights and the peaceful ambiance of the harbour creates a serene ambience.

Northern Lights, Norway

The Northern Lights are a breathtaking natural phenomenon that attract visitors from around the world. Be ready to spot the auroras that paint the night sky with vibrant hues of green, purple, and pink as solar particles collide with the Earth’s atmosphere. Whether you see it while adventuring out or having a relaxing moment under the starlit sky, the auroras are a highlight of any trip to the Arctic.

Vasa Museum, Sweden

Explore out to Stockholm's historical museum that displays the nearly fully intact Vasa ship, giving you a fascinating look at Sweden's maritime history. Inside, you can see the ship's detailed carvings, learn about its sinking, and find out how it was recovered and preserved.

Fjords, Norway

Cruise along a ferry boat through Naerofjord to experience its breathtaking scenery up close. It's one of the top destinations for kayaking, boat tours, and hiking along trails that offer sweeping, panoramic vistas. Beyond their natural beauty, Norway’s fjords are steeped in culture and history, with charming fishing villages, historic landmarks, and local traditions scattered throughout the region, adding depth and character to the landscape.

Gjogv, Denmark 

Take a walk in this charming village situated at the northern tip of Eysturoy Island in the Faroe Islands. The village is especially famous for its deep gorge, which stretches from the village down to the sea, creating a dramatic and unique natural feature. Gjogv also captivates with its traditional Faroese architecture, including colourful houses and distinctive turf-roofed buildings that enhance its rustic charm. This picturesque setting, combined with its peaceful atmosphere will want you coming back.
