| Betina’s favorite: Winter Ilulissat, Greenland via Copenhagen 2016/2017 Departures: Select dates Price from $4,051 per person 8 Day Independent Tour |
“This is a cool winter package because you get to see the wonderful city of Copenhagen, plus visit the more exotic Western Greenland. Ilulissat is a fantastic town in Greenland, nestled on the shores of Disko Bay which contains floating icebergs. Several day tour options are available including snowshoeing, dogsledding, and an iceberg cruise – and hopefully the aurora borealis will show themselves.” |
| Andrea’s favorite:
Baltic Capitals Triangle |
“While not traditional Scandinavia destinations, the Baltics are still one of my favorites. This particular Baltic package shows the many facets of northern Europe while maximizing travel times by sailing to your next destination overnight. It also provides flexibility for clients who would like to extend and see more of Scandinavia!” |
| Ana’s favorite:
Winter Delights, Tromsø |
“This is one of my favorite packages because there is no place like Tromsø and Northern Norway in the winter! It is magical – see the Northern Lights, experience winter and Lapland culture with the Northerners, and see the beautiful landscapes all covered with snow.” |
| Elspeth’s favorite: Three Capitals, Scandinavia 2016/2017 Departures: Daily Price from $1,920 per person 9 Day Independent Tour |
“The Three Capitals of Scandinavia is my top pick because it gives you the freedom to focus on your individual interests. I’d utilize my time exploring all the museum and historical sites, but you could go more active if that is your preference. I’d especially recommend Stockholm’s Skansen Open-Air Museum, Christiansborg Palace in Copenhagen, as well as the Viking Ship Museum and Fram Museum in Oslo!” |
| Nicole’s favorite: Savor Scandinavia August 31 – September 9, 2017 Price from $4,993 per person 10 Day Escorted Signature Journey |
“One thing most of us have in common is a passion for food. Whether you are a self-proclaimed foodie (like myself) or just genuinely interested in Scandinavia (also me), this is a tour for YOU. We will travel through the fjords and visit each Scandinavian capital while learning about traditional food and the New Nordic cuisine, as well as tasting both.” |
| Elisabeth’s favorite: Northern Lights, Volcanoes & Glacier Lagoon, Iceland 2016/2017 Departures: Saturdays Price from $1,996 per person 7 Day Escorted Tour |
“This package is a great way for travelers to explore the beautiful southern coast of Iceland beyond Reykjavik- where the splendors of nature are awe-inspiring and up close! Plus, spending a few nights outside of the bustling city increases your chances of seeing the Northern Lights!” |
| Samantha’s favorite:
Winter Sami Adventure |
“I really adore this package because of its ability to capture both traditional and modern glimpses into the life of today’s Finnish Sami people. My favorite part is exploring Lake Inari and the old Sami village center. The ride back through the majestic glistening snow is one not to be forgotten! Surely this is a trip of a lifetime for all!” |
