Was glad to see the four capitals. However, the two-hour "city in a nutshell" bus tour in each city was not as satisfactory. The guides were very knowledgeable and spoke excellent English, but it seemed as though we were driving around looking at a lot of buildings. After a bit, one building began to look like every other building. I realize we were being given a brief look at the city, but more interesting sites with a stop for pictures would have been more enjoyable.Show more

I was not thrilled with the way Trafalgar sets up their tours. On the first day in each city, we had a 1-2 hour bus ride just pointing out different sites. Then to actually visit most of the attractions in was an optional experience with an additional fee. I would have preferred to pay more up front and had all the important sites and activities included and not waste time just touring around on a bus.Show more

Thank you for your feedback. We recognise that you would have liked for some of the Optional Experiences to have been included in the itinerary; however, we offer these to allow our guests to explore further or to give those that would prefer to undertake independent sightseeing or leisure time the opportunity to do so. That said, we still hope you have taken many lasting highlights away from your time in Scandinavian countries.
