Denmark
Although historic castles still stand in Denmark and one of the world’s oldest monarchies still reigns over the land, the Scandinavian country enjoys a modern and contemporary lifestyle. Denmark effortlessly blends the old and the new, showcasing both ultramodern architecture in cosmopolitan cities and charming villages off the beaten track. From undulating sand dunes to the salty, open seas, the various landscapes of Denmark are easily explored with the local transport. Come see these fantastic places for yourself.
Norway
A trip to Norway will prove to be a full-body workout as well as total indulgence. Go on a Norwegian adventure and get ready for hiking, biking, mountain walks, or polar bear tracking! Following the excitement, take a moment to admire the vibrant light streamers of the aurora borealis. And if you’re visiting in the summertime, throw on your sunnies and enjoy the sunshine – at midnight! Norway isn’t just about adventure; it’s also about pleasure. Treat your tastebuds to the tasty foods and wines of the country or pamper yourself with a luxury spa treatment.
Sweden
Sweden is the meeting point of nature and urban life. Those visiting Sweden are drawn not only to the beauty of the country’s wilderness, but also to the cities’ wild night clubs, vibrant restaurant scenes, and wooden horse factories. A delightful country full of colour: Enjoy the verdant pastures, charming red cottages, and clear blue waters. While taking a stroll through Sweden’s beautiful countryside, you may stumble upon a burial mound for an ancient king or stone ships, huge stones arranged in the shape of a ship for ancient burials.
Finland
From the country’s alluring lakes to the wilderness of Lapland, Finland is a patchwork quilt of regions that each has its own unique character. However, throughout the country, you will always encounter fresh, unpolluted air; nature’s beauty, and friendly locals. Not matter when you visit Finland, there will always be something to do. Sporty types can get their hearts racing while skiing or ice swimming; animal lovers will absolutely enjoy a reindeer safari; and city-goers can spend their time in the museums, at the shops, or around the festive markets.
Iceland
The Nordic island nation of Iceland is home to impressive landmarks. From volcanoes and lava fields to geysers and hot springs, you’re not going to want to forget your camera. Treat your body right and take a dip in the toasty waters of the Blue Lagoon, a geothermal spa. Despite the heat, you can also see glaciers in Iceland if you head to Vatnajökull and Snæfellsjökull National Parks. A trip to Reykjavik, the country’s geothermally powered capital, will reward you with information about the island’s Viking history.
