- KHKate· September 23rd, 2025Well organised & good communication . Our first tour -> enabled us to enjoy many places & experiences ,w ith the hassel !Show moreTrip date: September 2025
Zane· September 17th, 2025Great tour, better to do it alone if you travel alone because Scandanavian culture is built around that. The mountains were great (I recently moved from CO/WY area to the not-so-great Houston, so seeing these made it better). Mike our tour guide was excellent, knew what he was doing, if there was a hang up it never felt like a hang up he handled it well, he was very knowledgeable in the facts of the areas we visited. The dinners were great, people were great. Overall, the trip is great if you like colder climates, quiet cities, clean culture, no loud music or yelling in these places, and people are super introverted.Show moreTrip date: July 2025- Mark· September 17th, 2025Great scenery and history with lots of contentShow moreTrip date: August 2025
- MKMohandas· August 11th, 2025We just got back from a Scandinavia tour- The tour itself was decent — the itinerary was fine, and the hotels were clean and comfortable, though they were located quite far from the city Unfortunately, the biggest downside was the tour leader. He seemed unprepared, offered very little communication, and did not share important information with the group. This lack of guidance affected the overall experience.Show moreTrip date: August 2025
- CBConnie· July 28th, 2025Brilliant, personable, and knowledgeable guide (Luke), wonderful safe and experienced driver (Bogdan), and fabulous tour. Extremely well organized, a curated experience-lovely adventure where all was taken care of and a nice balance of free time with included activities and optional activities. I have had bad experiences with previous tours and Luke and this tour has changed my opinion of tours. This tour of Scandinavia and Finland was brilliant and I would recommend it. Two recommendations: 1) Local guides should ALL have Whisper Systems. Some are really hard to hear, especially with a larger group and in some city areas. A couple of these were really hard to hear. 2) The Helsinki walks and local guide, Rebecca, was awful. Awful. We went over 2.5 hours in mid-day heat, was not given lunch break so it was 2:30 when we could finally eat. She walked extremely fast and did not wait for people-by the time the people in the back caught up she was walking again. No whisper system and she stopped in really loud intersections or by machinery so couldn't hear most of it. The pace was horrendous; we had a few older people who really struggled to keep up and I felt I was i training for a marathon; a fellow traveller said it felt like we were in a big hurry to go nowhere, another said boot camp exercise. She dragged us a long route to library when we could have taken a more direct shorter route or even taken tram to library to start. This was worst part of hole trip, 3people dropped out 25 minutes in. 5 of us left before it ended, maybe 30 minutes-found Luke and told him so he wasnt worried-and went for lunch,Show moreTrip date: July 2025

Your flight arrival time should not be a problem because the Tour will only be in Copenhagen on Day 1 and you can always catch up with the group when you arrive. You will receive the Tour Leader's contact information 10-15 Days before the Tour Starts, and you can reach out when you arrive in Copenhagen so that you can get instructions on where to go.
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written June 2025
The Tour's included accommodations is only until the night of September 24, 2025 as the tour ends on the next day. If you are staying longer in Helsinki, then you may need to arrange Post Tour Accommodations. We are unable to assist in reserving pre and post-accommodation.

Asked on June 14th, 2025What does phrase "1 Other Unavailable departure" mean for the 13 Sept 2025, Copenhagen to Helsinki tour?
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written June 2025
The phrase "1 Other Unavailable Departure" simply means there was another date for this tour that is now fully booked or no longer available. The 13 September 2025 departure from Copenhagen to Helsinki still has a few seats left.

Asked on June 12th, 2025Hi expat explorer, I have travelled with you in July 2023 , for this booking, am I allowed to get 10% discount?

We're unable to apply Expat Explore's 10% return traveler discount, as each platform has its own pricing structures, terms, and promotions. Discounts and special offers may differ between TourRadar and Expat Explore, and they may not carry over between the two platforms.

You're scheduled to stay at the Radisson Blu Seaside Hotel in Helsinki on both Tuesday, 26 August and Wednesday, 27 August 2025. If you'd like to book one more night before your flight on Friday, 29 August, I recommend reserving an additional night for Thursday, 28 August at the same hotel.
