What travelers are saying

"I was very, very pleased with this tour. My wife and I elected to take all the optional experiences, and we were very glad we did. The tour reflected a great deal of well-informed planning and coordination. Collectively, the locations and associated experiences provided a rich mixture of exposure to satisfy many interests - including historical, geographic, cultural, architectural, artistic, and culinary pursuits. This was enhanced by information provided by both our Tour Director and select local guides with expertise in the topics relevant to our site. In reasonable proportion to any given location, we were also given time to explore on our own. From morning to evening, each day of the tour was filled with activity of one kind or another. The end result is that I felt there was no time wasted, and that I received great value for the time and expense I invested in this tour. I should also add that our bus driver (Ben) demonstrated great skill – driving smoothly, efficiently, and inspiring confidence that we were in safe hands. Yes, the success of this tour was the result of careful, well-informed planning. However, the success of great plans ultimately rests on the shoulders of the person who leads its implementation. This is where the talent, experience, dedication, and personality of our Tour Director (Ilja) really made this Best of Benelux Tour such a great success in my opinion. Whether travelling on the bus or walking at a location of interest, she had a great skill for developing a sort of “esprit de corps” within our tour group. Consequently, our group became increasingly cohesive, allowing for fluid and efficient movement to each day’s planned travel experiences. This was enhanced by her genuine interest in the needs and travel aspirations of each tour member as an individual. I, for one, was deeply moved by her taking the time and effort to facilitate my visit to a travel site (within the tour) that was of great importance to me. My wife and I will never forget that experience – it was a priority aspiration we hoped to fulfill as part of this tour. In summary, Ilja’s leadership and skills made the tour a joyful, satisfying success from the first to last day. I can’t ask for more than that!"

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

"My wife and I did the six day Lofoten Islands tour offered by 50 Degrees North. The tour is simple, they provided us a rental car, accommodations for two nights each at three Rorbuer hotels scattered across the islands, and a couple of scheduled day tours. Most of the time, we were on our own to see the islands at our own pace. The islands are stunningly beautiful, and the tour planning made our travels hassle free. They even scheduled lunch for us at an organic goat farm, which may sound a little strange for a vacation like this, but that is only because you haven't tasted the cheese. (Best lunch ever!) At our request, they altered the tour slightly so that we could begin the tour in Svolvaer and end it six days later at the airport in Leknes. We can't imagine a more complete tour of the islands in six short days."

Additional details

When is the best time to visit Sweden?

Sweden is a country with various wonders throughout the seasons. Your best timing will depend on what type of travel, activities and sights you’d like to experience.

If you’d like to visit during the sunny season, see the midnight sun and have lots of hours to sightsee, hike, relax, and bike, visit during May through September.

If you’d like to enjoy winter activities such as nordic skiing, seeing the Northern Lights or watching the snowfall, plan on visiting between November and March.

Who will enjoy traveling to Sweden?

Any type of traveler will enjoy visiting Sweden, as it hosts interesting cultural, historic, natural and culinary delights. In particular, Sweden is an excellent destination for active travelers who want to engage in biking, hiking, skiing and other activities. Someone who enjoys a less crowded experience with lots of access to nature and the outdoors will also enjoy a trip to Sweden.

Why should you travel to Sweden?

Sweden is a bit off the beaten track as a tourist destination, so those travelers seeking to get away from the crowds, spend some time outdoors, and learn about this unique Nordic country will love spending time touring Sweden.

You should travel to Sweden to taste the sea-based cuisines and delicacies of the country. You should arrive ready to spend time outside in beautiful landscapes and be active on your trip.

You should travel to Sweden to engage with interesting cities and a culture that lives amongst long summers and winters. You should travel to Sweden to get away from the crowds of Western Europe.

Sweden travel packing list

Along with the usual necessities when packing for a trip, a trip to Sweden wouldn’t be complete without including:

1) Hiking Books

2) Outdoor gear depending on the season (you could also rent there)

3) Layers (the weather can change and it’s good to be prepared)

4) A rain jacket

5) A swimsuit (for the summer months)

6) A great book (for relaxing after an action-packed day)

What is the weather like in Sweden?

Many people think of long winters when they think of Sweden. While this is true, the climate is milder than one would expect due to Sweden's proximity to the Gulf Stream.

The further north that you go, the more cold the climate. In general, the country has some humidity from its closeness to the ocean.

The summer can be quite pleasant with many sunny days. As with any trip, research the weather for your timeline to pack accordingly.
