What people love about touring Nordic / Scandinavia solo
- From Copenhagen to Helsinki
I was worried about the culturally mixed tour clients due to some negative reviews from previous clients. But I enjoyed the experiences of mixing with participants from Mexico and the Philippines. Yes sometimes bilingual guides’ presentations were not clear, and I had to ask for clarifications. Hotels were better than I had expected from the reviews; except in one-hotel the lightening was so bd
- Absolute North
Very good tour got to see loads of places over short period of time, it really gave us a snapshot of Scandinavian countries. Most guides were very informative and kind. Very comfortable transportation and accommodation throughout
- Grand Scandinavia (Classic)
Greg was fantastic. Would recommend him to anyone going on a tour with him. He was amazing.
