Highlights

  • Norway's fjords feature some of the most stunning scenery on Earth. Cruise past waterfalls and snow-capped peaks through the narrow Naeroyfjord.
  • Visit Dalarna County, nestled in middle Sweden and often referred as “Sweden in miniature” for the abundance of lakes, forests, and local traditions.
  • Follow your local guide along the narrow, winding roads through genuine villages, past the typical red painted cottages and explore unique sights around Siljan lake rural settlements. You'll even get a chance to meet and mingle with the locals living in these villages.

What travelers are saying

"We joined the Intrepid “Real Italy Food Tour” and enjoyed it thoroughly. Our tour guide, Micol, was very knowledgeable and provided us with lots of good information. It seems Micol knew many of the staff of the venues we visited, including the pasta making class we attended. Our group of 11 travelers was extremely compatible, which greatly added to the fun and enjoyment."

What travelers are saying

"The trip was well laid out. Tour guides were friendly and knowledgeable. The only complaint is some of our travel documents that were sent out were not in English. If your sending documents out correspondence should be in both the native language and the language of the people the correspondence to. Other than that a great first time experience."

What travelers are saying

"BUYER BEWARE!!! This company has a policy that if THEY cancel your trip…THEY get to keep your money and you get a credit the company. They cancelled my first trip..found out the hard way about their policy. Booked a trip…then had left over money so booked another…which they cancelled…again. Surprisingly…this time they offered a refund, but only gave me back the money I had put down…not what was left of “my credit”. So now I am forced to do business with a company I no longer wish to, that picks and chooses when to follow their own policy!! There are plenty of other travel agencies with similar tours…don’t give these guys your hard earned money for them to keep."

Additional details

Where is Stockholm?

Stockholm is located on Sweden’s east coast, where the freshwater Lake Malaren meets the Baltic Sea. It is a unique city in that it is made up of various islands also called the Stockholm Archipelago. More than ⅓ of the city is comprised of waterways and ⅓ is made up of parks and green spaces. Nature lovers and urbanites will be delighted with a visit to Stockholm.

Traveling from Stockholm to Copenhagen

There are numerous ways to travel between Stockholm and Copenhagen, as many travelers choose to combine these two cities on a trip. There are direct trains that take roughly 5.5 hours from Stockholm central station to København H Train Station.

Alternatively, you can take a direct flight in about 1.5 hours or take a rental car road trip for about 7.5 hours to make stops along the way. Finally, you can take a local bus for a cheaper option, which will take about 10 or more hours.

Tips for touring Stockholm

Scandinavia as a whole, including Stockholm, can be a rather expensive travel location but there are ways to visit on a budget including eating at lunch buffets and avoiding big restaurants, purchasing the Stockholm card (access to public transportation and free entrance to most museums and canal tours) bringing and refilling your water bottle and drinking beer instead of more costly alcoholic beverages.

Sightseeing in Stockholm hosts a large variety of activities and sights, as such one could easily enjoy multiple days in Stockholm. If you’re on a timeframe, it is possible to get a taste for the major sights within 1-2 days, as long as you plan ahead on what you don’t want to miss.

Do most Sweden tours include Stockholm?

Yes, the majority of Sweden tours and Scandinavia tours include a visit in Stockholm, as it is the major international airport and a cultural gem. Depending on the tour, the length of stay and guided activities in Stockholm could differ. Some tours in the northern part of Sweden meet visit smaller cities in the north and do not include a visit to Stockholm.
