This is a fabulous tour. Be prepared to be tired and happy all at the same time. The bus travel is long and gives you a great chance to see the local houses, the people and the countryside. Not a trip for the unfit or less mobile person but a surprise every day for all.

What our customers ask about Nordic / Scandinavia Family Tours
What are the best family-friendly activities in Nordic/Scandinavia?
Nordic and Scandinavian destinations offer activities that engage all ages. Children can meet Santa Claus at his official residence in Rovaniemi Finland or explore Viking history at Oslo's museums. The ABBA museum in Stockholm provides an interactive music experience while Friðheimar farm in Iceland introduces visitors to Icelandic horses and greenhouse farming techniques. Copenhagen's Tivoli Gardens remains a family favorite and the Fløibanen funicular in Bergen offers panoramic city views. A TourRadar traveler shares: "The journey up to Floyen located 320 meters above sea level takes only 5-8 minutes. It is an experience in itself but when you appear at the top you will be amazed by the fantastic views over Bergen."
What type of accommodation can families expect on Nordic/Scandinavia tours?
Family accommodations range from well-appointed hotels to unique local stays. The Fosshotel Baron in Reykjavik provides family rooms with kitchen facilities while the Scandic Hotels chain across Norway Sweden and Denmark caters to families with dedicated play spaces and child-friendly dining options. Guests can also experience overnight ferry cabins between capital cities or stay in traditional countryside guesthouses. According to a TourRadar traveler: "The hotels were well chosen for location and access to the wondrous landscapes. Some hotels are remote all the better to enjoy the beautiful natural settings."
