    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.
