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 experiences and activities - weather dependent.
Our only suggestion is to provide more detailed information on what to bring depending upon the week you book. We ended up purchasing and packing things that were unnecessary.
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.
The. tour brought me so much happy memories and allowed me to see interesting places I never would see.The experiences and the knowledge shared made me a better person than yesterday. I never realized that one day I will be able to reach this so wonderful, colorful and historically rich cities which I only see in movies or read in books. I congratulate Expatexplore for organizing these tours not only for adventure of a lifetime but a vivid wikepedia for learning.

Loved this tour, fast paced but not too much, really well structured so you felt you saw all of the must sees in Denmark, Norway and Sweden. Highlights have to be the Fjords and ABBA Museum. Used good hotels, all comfortable, great breakfasts and close to good public transport. Did most of the optionals and would really recommend them, they were usually far cheaper than doing it yourself. First tour with Expat, they offer really good value and we will be using them again

I absolutely loved this tour. Whilst being packed full of things to do and see, the mornings weren't too early and I didn't feel like we were spending all our time on the road so it really felt like a holiday as well as a wonderful sightseeing experience. My only suggestion for improvement would be to add Krakow on as I think that would be a more valuable and interesting addition than Warsaw. Otherwise this tour was wonderful! Highly recommended!

Honestly I really enjoyed everything. But if I had to pinpoint a favourite I think it would be how often we saw the northern lights. Due to the extreme weather conditions - a blizzard in October, we saw them almost every night which I think makes us really lucky, as I was expecting it to be much harder to see them. Additionally, I was pleasantly surprised by the adaptability of our day plans by our TM and Driver when we needed to be kept safe, and had delays to departures on some days due to snow, icy roads, and strong winds - we still managed to see everything we would have in the end and made some surprise pit stops too! I was super stoked with the glacier hike, but it would be even more incredible if it was longer. The only way I think this trip could be improved would be to have the start time earlier so the first day is actually a full day, and start the travel straight away! Why do we need to stay in Reykjavík on the first and last night? It could easily be changed to make the trip feel like you see even a tiny bit more.
