Highlights

Copenhagen: Kick off your trip with a visit to the Little Mermaid state, the Gefion Fountain and the Royal Palace. Let the photo ops begin...

Copenhagen: Get your bearings in the coolest way possible - with a TM-led walking tour through the heart of Copenhagen. From the buzzing Town Hall Square to the iconic Stork Fountain, we’ll stroll past historic hotspots like the Round Tower, Copenhagen Uni, and the city’s oldest square. It’s culture, cobblestones and all the Scandi charm, served fresh.

Oslo: Take an orientation around the friendly Norwegian capital. Soak up the Viking and maritime legacy, see city highlights and discover where to get the best seafood.

Oslo: Get your sculpture culture on! It’s hard to believe that one artist created all of these masterpieces.

Torgås: Stay in a small, family-owned hotel for a cute, homely vibe. You’ll also get to explore the local area.

Stockholm (Solna): Wanna get a feel for Sweden's stunning capital? Come discover the historic sites of Stockholm, from the kaleidoscopic buildings of Gamla Stan (the old town) to the stunning waterfront views.

Itinerary

From colourful Copenhagen to sophisticated Stockholm, this trip gives you 10 days of pure Scandinavian magic. Expect chilly breeze, fairytale forests, fresh seafood, hot saunas, jaw-dropping fjords and enough natural beauty and cultural heritage to take your breath away.
