Simple stays with essential amenities. Typically guesthouses, hostels or hotels rated below 3 stars — clean, no-frills, and great for value-conscious travelers.
Comfortable and reliable 3-star stays. Expect private rooms, en-suite bathrooms, and solid amenities — a great balance between comfort and cost.
Upscale 4-5 star hotels and lodges. Enjoy high-end service, refined comfort, and premium locations — ideal for travelers seeking extra indulgence.
Great balance of planned activities, free time to explore, and other options if you wanted to participate in more opportunities. Our tour guide made the trip more enjoyable. He was so knowledgeable and organized. He paid attention to all the small details. The bus driver was great as well. We were glad that we went a day early to catch up on sleep and get acclimated to Reykjavík and the time difference. The bus transportation requires every person to have their own credit card account number. We tried to use our visa twice and the payment was declined.
We had a great time and enjoyed every part of the tour. Our tour leader Luke and our driver Brian are the best, always making sure we were safe and had a blast everywhere we went, plus their culture, history and geography knowlede is outstanding.
They make a great team.
This was our 4th Expat tour and can't wait for the 5th. (already planning it), it was the second time we had Luke as a leader and hope to have him again in future tours.
Breakfast was great in every hotel except for Karlstad.
The only reason why we don't put a 5 star in accomodations is Karlstad (definitely not good)
We were the first group to do the Catamaran additional excursion from Gdansk to Sopot and it was one of the best excursions, the Catamaran, the Catamaran crew and the dinner in Sopot were awesome!!!!!

It would have been nice to have a hotel more centrally located in Borgames. The Hotel Hamar Borgames was nice but extremely isolated. There was nothing to do. Other hotels were centrally located and there were retail and grocery stores nearby.
A really great experience visiting Norway, Denmark and Sweden. Our guide Mads was excellent! He was very knowledgeable, giving detailed info for every location we visited, as well as being attentive and kind. The Fjords are amazing, as well as the Flam Railway but then everything we did was enjoyable!
We had such a great bunch of people in our small group of 11.
Would highly recommend this trip, absolutely no negatives!

Scandinavia has astonishing sightseeing for those who like nature or history. The experience was even better with Contiki. Ollie our trip manager and Tamas our drive provide a lot of historical information, curiosities and we were able to drive to some other places for sightseeing. Highly recommend it.

Einer Thosteinsson , our guide was super enthusiastic about his homeland
The tour was well planned, we went to all the major sites without being rushed
The hotels were all very good if a little overheated
I knew we weren’t going to be met at the airport so that was no problem but I would have liked an introductory meeting either the night we arrived or before we clambered onto the coach the following morning, I missed the small sign on reception that gave the first meet-up time
Otherwise a superb trip
