Review of Stockholm’s small-group nature hike, with a national park walk, campfire lunch, local wildlife, gear, and practical booking tips.
“Had an amazing time on this hike! The guide, Lucas, was very knowledgeable and super nice! It’s a great tour to get you away from the more touristy things in Stockholm. Would definitely recommend, even in winter, but bring snow boots!”
See Visby’s medieval wall, harbor, Kneippbyn, and Snäck Beach by open-top bus with flexible hop-on hop-off access for one day.
Cruise Stockholm’s archipelago to Vaxholm for fortress history, seaside fika, swimming, and a relaxed Swedish summer day.
“Very personable; friendly guide with a great knowledge of Stockholm. Made the whole trip enjoyable + worthwhile.”
Explore Malmö from Copenhagen by train, cross the Øresund Bridge, see old and modern sights, and enjoy Swedish coffee with a private guide.
“It was fantastic!! Grazie is wonderful, knowledgeable and FUN. Very much enjoyed our day.”
Review the Abisko Sami and reindeer day trip, with practical details on transport, feeding reindeer, costs, cold weather, and who should book.
“It was a bit boring and freezing cold. The price was high. Maybe they could offer a simple lunch including their price.”
Explore Sigtuna, Wenngarn Castle, and red-cabin Viby on a guided five-hour trip from Stockholm with hotel pickup.
“It was very instructive and very relaxing . My elder brother was very happy”
Explore Viking runestones, medieval churches, King Vasa’s ruins, and an Icelandic horse farm on a private Swedish history tour from Stockholm.
“The trip was very interesting and learned quite a lot. More time to sit down to have a lunch would have been better as time was running out to see all the things. An extra history building or style of old home would have been good to have seen to mix it up a bit.”
Explore Sweden’s Icehotel from Abisko with return transport, ice art, the Ice Church, Ice Bar, and three hours to wander Jukkasjärvi.
“We weren't sure if we wanted to take a full day and spend the money to see the ice hotel, but I'm so glad we did. I'm also glad we had Joey as our transportation coordinator and Modestas as our driver. A polar storm was moving through the area the day we went. Snowfall was heavy, wind was ferocious, and the roads looked dangerous to me, but Modestas kept us safe every step of the way.”
