There were many moments, but kayaking at Vrango Island, Sweden was a highlight.Oh, forgot about staying in cabins in Gudvangen, Norway with a waterfall in view, was outstanding. Then from there, the Naeroyfjord cruise to Flam. What can I say? Too many memorable parts to choose just one.
Tips?
It can be physically challenging- a lot of walking- so pace yourself. It's well with it.

Yes, we took public transportation when possible. We walked ... (more)Catherine Norman
It was better than I expected and the northern lights were of course the highlight. It gave us a good taste of Sweden and I feel like coming back one day. (more)Julia Ehrlich
The tours are authentic and thoughtful curations to showcase some of the amazing nature in Sweden for eco-conscious tourists who enjoy being in community with other likeminded explorers. (more)Deniece Wheeler
The dog sledding was amazing and lots of fun. The dogs were beautiful and up for lots of cuddles. The time spent with the Sami people was awe inspiring. The Northern Lights are always something to behold. (more)Alison Rogers

Tips?
Because much of the walking was away form shops, it would be a good idea to ensure provision for lunch. This might be something for them to
consider in addition to the provided evening meal.

Wonderful! We got a particularly warm welcome from Carmen, and from Clara. The cycling was memorable in many ways: beautiful countryside, great weather, and I felt I had achieved a lot - great exercise. The accommodation was superb and the quality of the food on offer was excellent.

The amazing accommodation and food. Thank you Carmen for going out of your
way to help us. We needed the tour moved back two days to fit in with our flight and she came through for us. Great little tour around a part of Sweden we had not visited before. (more)Sharon Ramel

Tallinn Estonia. Beautiful city with an amazing medieval section and Christmas market.
Tips?
Go a bit early and spend some extra time in Stockholm.
Local benefits?
It benefited local people from us dining in the smaller restaurants and shopping in the markets. We had a full size tour bus but only 20 people so our carbon
footprint was a little bigger than needed.

We loved the paths on the islands through unspoilt flower filled meadows and woodland paths lined with blueberry bushes. We rarely met anyone else as we walked. On the small boat out to Huvudskar we chatted to the people heading out to spend a week on the island - no running water or electricity - who go every year without fail. We had just a glimpse of life out on this remote island.
Tips?
The walking is not particularly strenuous although the first day is a ... (more)Edwina Jones

The Cakes or FIKA! Seeing the different towns at the end of each day added a lot of interest. Also interesting to see different castles and gardens and nature reserves. Good undulating bike rides with lots of lakes and trees. Generally managed to find good coffee/cake stops! Roads were quiet. Variety of accommodation - loved the glamping and stay at Lilla Vasskar. Enjoyed time in Stockholm too - visiting some of the museums and exploring the old Town.
