This trip includes accommodation in multi-share dormitories, where you won't be staying in twin share hotels, but rather cool hangouts with shared facilities. This means travellers on the same booking may be split between rooms due to the single gender dormitories.

Scandinavia can be an expensive destination in many ways, from museum entrance fees to optional activities and eating out. Your leader will be able to advise on how to have the best value holiday in Scandinavia.

This trip travels primarily on public transport. We recommend packing light as you'll be required to carry your own luggage between train stations, ferry ports and hotels, which can include walking up stairs and over cobblestones. Train stations often don’t have elevator access.
