What people love about touring Nordic / Scandinavia solo
- Northern Capitals
It was excellent tour
- 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
We took this tour in July 2024. It’s billed as a low cost tour. Every hotel was excellent and included a great breakfast. When we stayed two nights, those hotels were not in town but they were on a well serviced commuter train line allowing you to stay late in town. The included dinners were fine but either not representative of the region or insufficient portions. As a low cost tour, there were very few inclusions but you could pay for optionals. We opted to buy museum cards for Copenhagen and Helsinki and fared much better. The ferry rooms did NOT have windows - don’t be deceived by the images in the brochure. We were happy with our guide, Matt who was patient, kind, and professional.
