All offer easy trails through diverse national parks – ideal if you’re new to walking trips – plus historic cities and towns to explore.

Here you will meet the Arctic dog-sled racing Alta huskies—a world-famous champion dog sledding team, before stopping in Tromsø, where the Indigenous Sámi community invites you to help feed their reindeer herd. The vacation draws to a close on the scenic, once-Viking, shores of the Oslofjord.

This trip was a lot of fun! I recommend doing both parts, Scandinavia and Baltics. The free time ad ons had something for everyone and a lot of unique experiences. the included meals in Baltics were incredible, Scandinavia not so much. Most of the hotels were also very nice and comfortable.
