Reviews of our Sweden Self-Guided Tours
Self-guided travelers rate their independent journeys through Sweden.
Fiona | Traveled in July
A great introduction to Finland and the Stockholm area. I really enjoyed the combination of walking and sightseeing. I was pleasant surprised that the walking wasn’t quite as gentle as I’d feared The Finnish countryside was stunning and this, together with the stay in Turku, were my highlights. Toni was an excellent guide, full of information and history about both his home country of Finland and Sweden. The only downside for me was the Stockholm hotel, where the room was very warm and there was a lot of street noise with the window open at night,

A very well-organized trip with an exceptional leader.
Ian | Traveled in June
Pleasant countryside and a varied itinerary made this an interesting tour, and much more than just a walking holiday. I learnt a lot about Finnish culture and history from our tour-guide, Toni, who was enthusiastic and knowledgeable. For me, the island of Åland was a particularly special place and the visit to the Vasa in Stockholm was another highlight. For any fellow "gluten-free" travellers, I can say that it was very easy: there was a lot of choice at hotel breakfasts and on restaurant menus.

Excellent trip which was well organised and gave the right balance of group activity and free time. The train journeys and overnight ferry crossing worked well and the fjord boat trip and flåm railway were lovely. It would be interesting to see more of Denmark and Sweden but that would make it quite a long trip, however my appetite to revisit these countries has been whetted! Paula was a very good tour leader!
Richard | Traveled in June
Toni was a brilliant leader, he knew so much and was very interesting. He also has excellent English and a deep, loud, clear voice, which is an advantage! And I loved the Scandinvian food. Hotels were comfortable too and the ferry / cruise ship from Finland to Stockholm was brilliant as were the views on the way

Our tour leader, Toni, had a deep knowledge of the history and politics of both countries, and he was a superb communicator. The city tours were interesting though I would have preferred much more time spent on the countryside hikes. Sections of the forest walks were more challenging than I had anticipated and a lot of time was spent looking out for tree roots and other trip-hazards rather than enjoying the wonderful scenery. The forests of Finland and Sweden are magical; it would have been good to have had the services of a local nature-guide in order to interpret the fascinating ecosystems of these wild places.
