Discover Sweden
Journey through a mystical land of viking history
The Kingdom of Sweden is famed around the world for its high quality of life and standard of living. With a testimony like that, it’s little wonder it’s one of Europe’s most popular destinations. Combine Viking history and contemporary culture during a single day in Stockholm – the Vasa Viking Ship in the morning and the Abby Museum in the afternoon! In the summer, extend your activities into the wee hours, thanks to the Midnight Sun, and in the winter, experience Swedish Lapland at its favorite time of year as you snowshoe and dogsled across a white expanse of snow. Recently chosen as the European Capital of Gastronomy, Sweden’s dining establishments welcome foodies of all preferences, from the most meat-centric restaurants to strictly vegetarian menus. Perhaps you’ll even take a private cooking class with a local chef! Come with us to peel back the layers of this multifaceted country.

When to Visit
The Scandinavian climate is colder than continental Europe. The best time to visit Sweden for fine weather is May to September. If you want to see the Northern lights or enjoy Swedish Lapland activities, then of course winter is the perfect time to visit.
