Itinerary
After checking in, you have time to explore. Perhaps you wander into a local bakery and choose a sweet wienerbrød, its sugar rustling softly inside the paper bag. You clink glasses over drinks and dinner with the Travel Director and fellow travelers. As evening settles in, you walk down to Tivoli Gardens, wandering along glowing lamplit paths past the Chinese-style Pantomime Theater. Perhaps you will board the old wooden roller coaster or catch the sweet buttery scent of pastries wafting among the food stalls.

You continue to Christiansborg Palace, the seat of the Danish Government, then pass Rosenborg Castle’s red-brick walls and copper-spired turrets before crossing Amalienborg’s octagonal palace courtyard. In Nyhavn, you pass painted townhouses that lean over moored boats as water knocks softly against the hulls.

Traveling along Sweden’s west coast, you arrive in Gothenburg, where your Local Specialist leads you through a city of canals, quays and old fishing trade. As vessels bob in the harbor and gulls call above coils of nets, you hear how shipyards, fishing and seafood have long filled working days by the water. This evening, you head along Avenyn, Gothenburg’s broad boulevard, passing the Poseidon fountain, glittering theater lights and tall trees lining the pavements. Perhaps you will take a seat at a local seafood restaurant as evening settles and you hear fish sizzling on the grill.

Crunching gravel paths lead you between 18th-century garden quarters, hedges of mock orange, barberry, willow and spruce. If the wild tulips are flowering, you may catch their fragrance as they unfold in front of you and Hans shares how the garden changed the way plants were studied. Later, you arrive in Falun, where timber houses painted Falun red line the old mining streets. At a local restaurant, you sit down to a farm-to-table dinner of fresh, locally sourced ingredients.

From there, the road slips along Lake Siljan towards Mora, with broad water beside you and stories of the town’s 17th-century witch trials waiting on arrival. Sweden’s forested interior grows denser on the way to Sälen, where you stand at the starting point of Vasaloppet and picture skiers pushing into the cold, their poles striking a 90-kilometer route through pine and snow towards Mora. Across the Norwegian border, Hamar’s Vikingskipet curves like an upturned Viking ship, its Olympic ice once cut by the scrape of speed skates. You travel beside Lake Mjøsa, Norway’s largest lake, with water stretching towards Lillehammer and the mountain town’s 1994 Winter Olympics legacy.

In Lom, you pause before the dark timber of Lom Stave Church, one of Norway’s largest and oldest stave churches, and look up at the carved dragon heads along its roofline. The road bends on, and you follow its turns through the spray of roaring waterfalls, rushing rivers, ice fields, lakes and snow-capped peaks.

You pass fish laid on beds of crushed ice, berry baskets, leafy greens and colorful buckets of flowers, as the scent of fresh fruit cuts through the cool harbor air and vendors call across the stalls. At Håkon’s Hall, you step onto wide wooden floorboards and look up to a steep timber roof, with gray stone walls, arched windows and warm hanging lights above the medieval banqueting hall. The afternoon is yours to explore, perhaps visiting the Kode Museum before riding Fløibanen up Mount Fløyen, where the funicular climbs 320 meters above sea level as you look out across Bergen’s colorful rooftops and the deep blue water stretching out towards the horizon.

Around the Opera House and Bjørvika, you follow the fjordside, passing white marble, glass façades and Barcode’s narrow high-rises as you hear waves tap along the quay.
