This glorious trip is 1 week with people on the Taste of Scandinavia tour then 2 weeks with those on the Scandinavian Explorer trip (I’m so glad I chose all 3 weeks)...
Simply an amazing trip - so much seen and done. Each country is uniquely different and it has been great to experience them all. This trip provides a complete Scandi...
We did “Complete Scandinavia” trip and had a fabulous time. We enjoyed every place we stayed, from the capital cities to smaller towns like Lillehammer and Gudvangen...

Well organised and interesting however I felt the itinerary let the leader and trip down when we visited the Aland Islands, where everything was closed and we wander...
Most of the trip was very nice, however Lillihammer and Mora were questionable stops and Åland was a total bust. I realize Lillihammer and Mora are somewhat dictate...

Excellent leader, showed us very many sites. Adding a rest break to the 2 hour tours would be good.

Editor’s Take
Most trip reviews tend to focus on some or all of these 5 key areas, not all of which may be relevant to you: the tour guide, travel company, service level, country or countries traveled in, and the trip itinerary.
Remember, just because you see a 1 star review doesn’t necessarily mean that person disliked the country.
Reviews for Scandinavia give entirely positive feedback. Travelers exclaim how friendly and informative the tour guides were as well as commenting on the beautiful scenery. Many people recommend going and some even say they plan on going back!
The reviews that gave a 4 out of 5 seemed to mostly say that they felt time at certain cities could have been allocated to other things or spent at other cities. But this is completely bias and it will be up to you to determine which city you will be fond of depending on your type of travel.
A couple reviews spoke negatively about their visit to Aland Islands saying that it was closed for the season. While it is a beautiful place to see during summer and actually receives more sunshine hours than anywhere else in Scandinavia, the days are short in winter and there isn't much for a traveler to do. I would either prepare for this if your itinerary includes it or try to avoid it if visiting during winter altogether.
