Loved Scandinavia and Baltics tour. I have travelled with various companies on multiple tours and Diarmaid is the best leader I have had and we loved Sylvian (our driver) too.
The accommodation was great - the ferries particularly a highlight. I only wish we had more time in Riga and Tallinn (but fortunately I had been there before). I recommend the Fjord optional in Norway but, if you are happy to do your own research, save your money on the city 'plus' optionals for the well-earned tip for your tour leader and driver.
Gdansk and Bergen were particular highlights.

Had read a lot about Expat Explore but always set my expectations lower than the advertising hype. Was pleasantly surprised when the tour was better than I expected. The locations, excursions - both included and extra - were phenomenal. The pace was a little daunting for this 70+ woman with mobility issues but everyone sort of looked out for each other. It was a good mix of ages and overall a great group to travel with. Our oach driver was great and our tour guide had lots of pertinent info for us, was a great administrator and excelled at "herding cats"....keeping us together and on schedule.

This trip was a hidden gem! The Scandinavian capitals were stylish, and the Baltics were full of history and charm. The fjords in Norway were absolutely breathtaking!

My husband and I took this tour to celebrate our 45th wedding anniversary. it turned out to be one of the most memorable trips of our lives. We’ve traveled quite a bit over the years, but this tour stood out for its perfect blend of countries.
From the very beginning in Copenhagen everything felt well-organized and thoughtfully planned. The pace was comfortable for us: not too rushed yet still packed with fascinating experiences. We especially loved the fjord region in Norway cruising past snow-capped peaks and still waters was like something out of a dream. Each capital city had its own charm.
The hotels were clean, comfortable, and located close to key attractions which made exploring in our free time very easy. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about making the experience enjoyable. She even arranged a surprise dessert at dinner one evening which brought tears of joy to my eyes. It was such a thoughtful gesture and made us feel celebrated and appreciated.
We also enjoyed connecting with fellow travelers from different backgrounds. This trip reminded us why we fell in love with eachpther in the first place. Scandinavia and the Baltic were destinations we’d always dreamed of, and the team made it all possible without the stress of planning every detail. We came home with beautiful memories, hundreds of photos, and hearts full of gratitude. We would absolutely recommend this tour especially for special milestones. Thank you, team, for making our 45th anniversary so unforgettable.
