    Itinerary

    1. Introduction

      You can’t say you’ve travelled all of Europe until you’ve been to Scandinavia. This land of natural beauty and minimalistic style is huge and so different to the rest of Europe, we thought it deserved a whole package to itself.

      Start your trip around Northern Europe with a couple of nights in Berlin before heading to the Danish capital. The liberal and charming city of Copenhagen is sure to win you over with its amazing architecture and friendly locals. Don’t miss out on seeing its jaw-droppingly beautiful nearby castles, too! Then make your way up north (with a camera to hand) through the stunning Swedish countryside and into Norway. Its capital, Oslo, will welcome you with open arms, offering a range of museums and sights all within easy walking distance. Venture further out into the fjords and you’ll also get to experience the great Scandi outdoors with the most stunning of backdrops.

      Travel back through Sweden and head to colourful Stockholm, one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Contemporary, slick and stylish are just a few words we could use to describe this gem! After a couple of nights here, take the overnight ferry across the Baltic Sea to Helsinki, Finland – a harbour town set on a picturesque fjord. Brimming with edgy art and an alternative bar scene, you’ll have plenty of photo ops!


      If you don’t want to stop there, then you can always nip across the Finnish Gulf to explore the Baltics, starting in Tallinn, Estonia. Just get in touch to create a custom route!

    1. Days 1 - 3 Berlin

      Berlin is the alternative, cool kid of Europe and a pro at being edgy. It’s how people dress, their liberal attitudes, the graffiti, the skaters and BMXers, the art, the clubs and the food. Berlin is also crammed full of fascinating WWII history around every corner.

      Highlights

      • See a section of the old Berlin Wall
      • Climb the dome of the renovated Reichstag
      • Discover the nightlife of Schoneberg and Kreuzberg

    2. Days 4 - 6 Copenhagen

      Copenhagen is a place where equal rights and liberal attitudes take precedence, a land where the atmosphere is incredibly safe and remarkably relaxed. Make sure you visit the hippie commune of Christiania where squatters’ rights still hold sway.

      Oslo will take you by surprise. It is not a big city, but it has exceptional museums and you can walk all over and around it into the overlooking hills.

      • See some excellent preserved viking ships
      • Understand Norway’s heritage at the Folk Museum
