Excellent trip, every need catered for - thank you Do the North, we will be back!
- Team Expedition - Guided Kayak & Wild Camp the Archipelago
This 5 day kayaking trip was superb from all aspects. All equipment was high quality and in excellent condition; this resulted in a very comfortable experience. The menu was carefully chosen to highlight Swedish cuisine; it surpassed expectations. Our guide Adam, ably assisted by Thomas, was thoughtful and knowledgeable. The scenery of the archipelago and the near perfect weather conditions made this a most memorable trip.
- Wolves, Moose and Beavers in the Forests of Central Sweden
Amazing trip, I loved every second from howling with the wolves to watching long legged moose cross the road. Our guide Simon was so enthusiastic and knowledgeable, he made the trip !!
What our customers ask about Sweden Small Group Tours
What unique accommodations are available on small group tours in Sweden?
Sweden's small group tours offer distinctive places to stay ranging from designer treehouses to ice structures. The TreeHotel in Harads lets guests sleep in elevated rooms with views across the Lule River valley. At Udden Guesthouse near Skinnskatteberg travelers stay in log cabins that put them close to local wildlife. The ICEHOTEL in Jukkasjärvi provides rooms carved entirely from ice. A TourRadar traveler notes: "The TreeHotel was absolutely magical - having such a unique place to stay made the experience even more special."
How does small group travel enhance wildlife viewing in Sweden?
Smaller groups move quietly through Sweden's natural areas making it easier to spot wildlife without disturbing them. Places like Abisko National Park and the Saint Anna Archipelago become more accessible as guides can lead travelers closer to Arctic owls white-tailed eagles and grey seals. A TourRadar traveler shares: "Our guide was very knowledgeable on the area and helped create a really great group experience viewing local wildlife."
How do meals work on small group tours in Sweden?
Food experiences on Swedish small group tours blend traditional and local dishes. Groups can eat fresh seafood at waterfront spots in Harstena village or gather for guide-prepared meals over campfires in Skinnskatteberg. Many tours stop at Stockholm's Östermalms Saluhall market for food sampling. According to one TourRadar traveler: "The intimate group size meant we could have wonderful dining experiences at small local restaurants that couldn't accommodate larger groups."
What is the best season for small group tours in Sweden?
The ideal time depends on what you want to see. Summer tours from June through August offer extended daylight and warm weather perfect for exploring the archipelago and watching wildlife. Winter tours between December and March focus on northern lights viewing and activities at the ICEHOTEL near Kiruna. A TourRadar traveler notes: "Our small group winter tour to the ICEHOTEL was magical - the intimate size meant everyone got plenty of time to learn ice sculpting and dog sledding."
What is the guide-to-participant ratio on small group tours in Sweden?
Most Swedish small group tours maintain about one guide for every six participants. This ratio proves especially valuable during activities like kayaking through Saint Anna Archipelago or watching for northern lights in Abisko. One TourRadar traveler shares: "Our guide could really focus on each person's needs and interests making the experience more enriching."
How much interaction is there with local communities on small group tours?
Small groups can connect closely with local communities throughout Sweden. Tours often include meetings with Sami reindeer herders in Flakaberg or visits to traditional fishing communities like Harstena. A TourRadar traveler reflects: "Being in a small group allowed us to visit a local Sami family's home and learn about their culture in a way that wouldn't be possible with a larger group."
