It was a lovely trip with a fun group and an excellent leader in Dushan. The itinerary was well planned and the accommodation was ok and I suspect being on the classic. Level what was to be expected.

Kristina, we are so glad to hear that you had a lovely time in Scandinavia and that despite the challenges with Oslo, you were able to enjoy your time in this country and the group that you travelled with. We have forwarded your feedback on to the country offices so that they are aware of the issues with people in the area of the hotels. Thank you for that info and we look forward to seeing you again soon!

Nikolai was FANTASTIC!!!! He was a great tour leader. The tour took us to many places and he educated us well. However, just a few negative comments. The hotels were not satisfactory ....I am used to better hotels when I travel. Carrying my luggage throughout the tour was very burdensome. I am an older person, and although I am in great shape, I did not want to be responsible for carrying my luggage everywhere. There was an 89 year old man on our trip. He had a real hard time catching up. I usually go on escorted tours where my luggage, and everything else, is handled by the guides, not by me. I loved the places that wer went to and overall I would suggest people take Tourradar and Intrepid if they don't mind doing some of the labor involved.Show more

Thank you for taking the time to post a review and for your recommendation. It’s great to know that Nikolai did a great job, and you had a great time exploring Scandinavia, but we are sorry to learn the accommodation wasn’t satisfactory, given you are used to better hotels. Intrepid trips have different trip styles, and the one chosen was an original style trip which offers simple tourist class hotels, so perhaps our Comfort or Premium style trips might be better suited to your needs. You mention carrying your luggage was burdensome. Given the nature of our trips, they do not include porterage, but we do advise travellers to pack light as they will be carrying their own bag. Nevertheless, we do appreciate this can be inconvenient if you are used to this being included. Thank you again for taking the time to post your review. We hope to welcome you an another of our adventures soon.
