Wonderful experience! The organization made us do a lot of different activities, making the trip perfect in every aspect: the activities were various, the price was the best you can find and they are ready to help in every situation. Even in difficult moments they are able to find the best solution keep the travel amazing as they promised. The guides are also super friendly!! Super suggested experience
This tour was wonderful! Our guides were very knowledgeable and friendly - and they kept us warm (we rented the recommended clothing, which was smart). Everything about the tour went very smoothly. There were six people in our group and we enjoyed getting to know each other. We visited with a Sami reindeer herding woman and got to hand feed some of her reindeer, we went on a dogsled ride, and we stayed a couple nights with a Sami man at his comfortable encampment. We skied across a frozen lake by his home, took a sauna, and rolled in the snow afterward. The Arctic is beautiful and different from what I'd envisioned. And we saw the Northern Lights on two nights - they are beautiful and awe-inspiring. It was the trip of a lifetime and my wife and I both loved it.

Find Your Story

Sweden has many different stories to tell. The mainland offers mountains, forests and lakes, but Sweden also has hundreds of thousands of islands off its coasts. The country has a wonderfully diverse sampling of architectural sites that range from royal palaces to the modest homes of fishermen. No matter where you look you will find beauty, but the most spectacular sights are the midnight sun and the northern lights.

Destination Must-See's

Sweden ms1

Vasa Museum:

On tour, visit the Vasa Ship Museum to see a perfectly preserved example of a 17th century ship. Studying the craftsmanship of the vessel provides a great foundation for understanding the long-standing building tradition in a region that employs simple and practical design. On your travels you’ll notice that much of that same craftsmanship infuses Scandinavian architecture today as it has throughout history.

Sweden ms2

Stockholm Archipelago:

Stockholm is sometimes called the “Venice of the North” because there’s water everywhere. There are 30,000 islands that lie in Stockholm’s spectacular archipelago. Some islands are occupied, and have red and yellow timber houses on them for summer residents, but many are still just as nature created them.

Sweden ms3

The Northern Lights

October through March is the best time to get a chance to see the famous Aurora Borealis, also known as the Northern Lights. It’s mother nature’s most stunning light show and an absolute treat to see if you’re lucky enough to get the chance.

Sweden ms4

The Midnight Sun:

Travelers visiting from May to July will experience what it’s like first hand to live in a place where the sun never sets. The intensity of the sun varies depending on fog or clouds, but it can be seen for nearly 24 hours a day during the warmer months.

Destination Must-Do's

Sweden md1

Travel the Bergen Railway:

The Bergen Railway is considered to be Europe’s most scenic rail journey. Your camera is in for a workout as you chug through breathtaking fjords and mountain terrain on your way to wondrous Bergen.

Sweden md2

Cruise Nærøyfjord:

This is the most famous arm of the Sognefjord and is the narrowest fjord in Europe with incredible views of waterfalls and tiny farms hugging the steep mountainside. Keep your eyes peeled for goats grazing right along the fjord and seals sunning themselves on the rocks.

Sweden md3

Norwegian Coastal Voyage:

Board a Hurtigruten ship for what has been dubbed the “World’s Most Beautiful Voyage.” You’ll sail for six magnificent days along the stunning Norwegian coastline enjoying a wealth of landscapes, scenery, sights and sounds.

Sweden md4

Eat dinner at Fem Små Hus:

Located in the heart of Stockholm’s old town, this intimate 17th century restaurant is comprised of five connected timber houses. The fare, served by candlelight, captures the flavors of a bygone era.

Expert Advice

diana

As you prepare to explore Sweden, enjoy a casual dress style and be sure to pack comfortable walking shoes. Travelers should prepare for a range of temperatures due to the geography of the region and its northern location.

Sweden e2

The Swedish enjoy smoked river trout baked with local herbs and vegetables. Deer, elk and bear meat are often on the dishes of this region. These meats are made into meatballs and served with a gravy sauce and hard bread or mixed with stewed vegetables and heated for hours. In Sweden, adventurous travelers might try the traditional Swedish “hamburger” made from smoked local meats.

Sweden e3

One of the best parts of traveling is coming back home with souvenirs that really reflect the place you’ve just been. In Sweden, keep your eye out for a traditional dale horse carving plus glass, crystal and handicrafts.

Next time I go to Scandinavia, I'll definitely keep Nordic Visitor in mind. They booked us great hotels that were centrally located and made it easy for us to tour every location at our own pace. The timing of travel was well considered so we could grab breakfast before our train to the next location, our accommodation were lovely, and communication leading up to our trip was smooth, even given the time difference. Highly recommend.

We recently undertook a self-drive tour in Sweden and were thoroughly impressed. The itinerary was thoughtfully crafted, providing interesting stops and sights each day just when we were ready for a break. I'd like to especially commend Juliana for her exceptional coordination and communication throughout the planning process. She consistently demonstrated professionalism and responsiveness, greatly reducing any potential stress associated with trip planning.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sweden Tours

If you're thinking of visiting Sweden, you might have a few questions. For your convenience we’ve collected the most asked ones, so check our FAQs below. You can also find more detailed information on booking and payments on our general FAQ page .

1. Is Sweden safe to visit?

Sweden is a safe country for both visitors and locals. In fact, the Global Peace Index rates Sweden as one of the safest countries in the world. Sweden is also one of the safest driving countries in the world according to the World Health Organisation .

2. Is Sweden Scandinavian?

Sweden is part of Scandinavia, along with the neighbouring countries of Denmark and Norway.

3. Is Sweden part of Europe?

Yes – Sweden is part of Europe and is located in the north of the continent.

4. What is the currency of Sweden?

The Swedish krona (SEK) is the official currency of Sweden – keep this in mind if you plan on exchanging money as Sweden does not use the Euro.

5. What language is spoken in Sweden?

The official language of Sweden is Swedish, with English widely spoken. However in Swedish Lapland and the northerly regions, the locals may also converse in Finnish or Sami.

6. What is the warmest month in Sweden?

The warmest month on average is July. Swedish summers are typically pleasant, and temperatures can get as high as 30°C (86°F) between June and August.

7. What is the best month to go to Sweden?

For mild weather and sunshine, we recommend visiting Sweden from May to September. Not only will you experience Sweden’s charming towns and natural attractions in pleasant conditions, but you’ll also have longer summer days to enjoy them. Regions close to the Arctic Circle experience the ‘midnight sun’ during the summer months – a phenomenon where daylight lasts well into the evening.

If you enjoy wintry activities, a cooler climate and landscapes blanketed in snow, then a visit between October and January is perfect for you. The winter is prime northern lights viewing season and Swedish Lapland is the ideal region to chase them down.

8. Where can we see northern lights in Sweden?

The further north you are of the Arctic Circle, the better your chances of seeing the northern lights, so we suggest visiting the province of Lapland . Here’s our list of aurora viewing areas:

  • Kiruna, Sweden’s most northerly town
  • Abisko, a charming mountain resort village in an “aurora zone”
  • The Aurora Sky Station, a northern lights observatory based outside of Abisko

Swedish Lapland is a beautiful place to go on a ‘northern lights safari’, so why not learn more about the area, and what to expect there, in our northern lights Lapland guide .

9. When is the best time to see the northern lights in Sweden?

The best time to see the northern lights in Sweden is during winter, specifically from October to March, with peak visibility between December and February. Evenings are the best time to go searching for the lights and ideal viewing conditions are remote areas away from light pollution, with clear skies.

10. What is a self-guided tour?

A self-guided tour is a package where all of the bookings and activities are organised for you by your dedicated travel consultant. On these tours, you travel without a guide and navigate the journey yourself.

11. Which is best to tour Sweden – by rail, cruise or self-drive?

The best way to tour Sweden depends on the form of transport you most enjoy and how you prefer to experience attractions.

Sweden’s train system is prompt and comfortable, and when travelling through the countryside, the views from either side of the carriage are exceptional. Rail travel is popular among locals and for good reason – you get to enjoy a traffic-free journey with good amenities and opportunities to stretch your legs.

If you’re the seafaring type, then try a Scandinavian cruise that starts or ends in Sweden. You get to enjoy sweeping views of the coast and experience overnight stays in cosy cabins. By choosing to cruise, you’ll get to visit other famous Nordic cities like Copenhagen and Oslo. You’re also in visiting distance of cities like Tallinn and Helsinki. Find more cruises on our Scandinavian packages .

Self-drive tours are another appealing option as you get to set the pace of your journey and enjoy the flexibility of driving to each attraction. Sweden has some of the safest and most well-maintained roads in the world. A smooth and picturesque drive, another benefit of taking the wheel is that you receive a hand-drawn map of your route and a detailed reference guide with area information and nearby sight-seeing.

12. Can I choose the arrival date?

Yes, you can choose the best arrival date to suit you depending on package and season. All our vacation packages can be purchased online, and once you’ve decided on the best journey for you, you can choose your ideal dates. If you’ve already booked, but your travel plans have changed, then get in touch with your travel consultant as soon as possible so they can rearrange your trip.

13. When should I book my flight tickets?

We advise that you book your package first to secure your tour. It may be worth checking potential flight times and prices first, but be aware some airlines and flight booking websites raise their prices between visits, so remember to do research using “Private” or “Incognito” mode. Once your tour is confirmed by email, go ahead and purchase your flights. If you have missed out on flights, please get in touch with us to change the dates of your tour.

14. What should I pack for my trip?

We advise all our guests to dress sensibly and pack warm layers, as well as wear comfortable shoes when visiting Sweden. Northerly regions like Lapland can reach temperatures as low as -50°C (-58°F), so it’s best to wrap up! Scandinavian weather can change quickly and it’s better to plan for the unexpected than to be underprepared. We recommend that you bring:

  • Jumper or fleece
  • Waterproof jacket
  • Comfortable walking shoes
  • Umbrella or poncho
  • Sleep mask (summer)
  • Foot warmers (winter)
  • Thermos (winter)
  • Binoculars (for cruise-goers)
  • Sunscreen and sunglasses (summer)
