Complete Nordic Journey in 28 days

On this Nordic adventure, you’ll combine an independent tour of Scandinavia with a road trip in Iceland.

The first part of your trip will see you travelling across the Scandinavian region, from country to country. We’ll book your accommodation and transport across the region, as per the itinerary. You’ll explore independently in each destination.

Then, catch a flight to the Land of Fire and Ice, Iceland. Here you’ll pick up a rental vehicle and drive the top spots of this gem. We’ll book your flight to Iceland, your airport transfers, accommodation and rental car for a smooth travel experience.

To find out which dates you can start your trip on, navigate to the "Find your price" section on the tour's page. Under "Tour start date", you'll see a calendar symbol. Select this and you'll see all the available dates to start your tour.

If you can't select a certain day, this means there are no departures available then. In that situation, please get in touch and one of our travel consultants will look into the options for you.

It’s best to book as soon as you can to secure your preferred travel dates. Once you have picked your tour, check the availability calendar to see which months are open for booking. Then, select the date you want and complete your booking.

We recommend waiting for confirmation from your travel consultant to ensure your travel dates are available. You’ll then be able to purchase your flights with confidence.

If you like to plan well ahead of time, you’ll find that it’s possible to book many tours for the following year. And if you have any questions or need advice, you can always contact us.

Yes, we highly recommend adding optional activities and extra nights to enhance your tour. This way you can customise your trip with what you want to see and do most.

We recommend adding them now to secure your spot, as popular excursions often sell out. And we suggest booking no more than one additional activity per day for the best experience. You can also add up to 3 extra nights at the beginning or end of your tour.

So when do you check in? And what can you expect when you land in Finland?

After picking up your luggage, you’ll make your way to your accommodation. Public transport is easy to access and convenient in Helsinki. Or you could catch a taxi.

Check-in times vary between hotels and guesthouses, but it normally starts between 2–4 PM.

You are welcome to request an early check-in for an additional fee. Although this isn’t always available, you’ll be able to store your luggage at the hotel until check-in. Please contact your travel consultant well in advance of your trip if you’d like an early check-in.

You will travel from Helsinki in Finland to Tallinn, Estonia by ferry. This is a 2-hour journey onboard either the Star or Megastar ship. There are several departures throughout the day, but we usually book the mid-morning departure.

Tallinn’s medieval Old Town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site – and one of the best-preserved in Europe. The good news is that almost everything worth seeing is within easy walking distance: churches, viewpoints, museums, restaurants and more. Comfortable shoes and a little curiosity will take you a long way.

English is widely spoken in the city centre, restaurants and hotels. That means getting around, ordering food and shopping is straightforward. Estonia uses the Euro, and card payments are accepted almost everywhere.

Tallinn is generally very safe. The usual travel common sense applies – keep an eye on your belongings in tourist spots – but nothing that should give you a moment’s worry.

For attraction recommendations and things not to miss, your personalised itinerary has got you covered. And you’ll receive a Tallinn Travel Guide too. It’s worth a browse before you go, if you’d like to get a feel for the city ahead of time.

After your stays in Helsinki and Tallinn, you’ll travel to Stockholm on an overnight cruise. You’ll depart in the evening and arrive in Sweden the following morning.

We’ll book you a cabin with a sea view, including private facilities. Breakfast will be included in the morning.

There are 2 ships operating the route, Tallink Silja Line Baltic Queen or Victoria I. On board both, you will find restaurants, cafés, tax-free shopping and guest entertainment.

You’ll make this leg of the journey by train – a comfortable 5 to 5.5-hour ride through the Swedish countryside, finishing up by crossing the Øresund Bridge. Eight kilometres of road and rail connecting Sweden to Denmark, with open water on both sides. It’s worth looking up from your book for.

Your seat is reserved, and there’s usually a café car on board for snacks and drinks. That said, we’d recommend packing a little water and a light lunch too – just in case.

Prefer to fly? No problem at all. Select the flight option when booking, or mention it to your travel consultant. Just bear in mind that switching may come with an additional charge.

One thing to be aware of: during summer months, train companies sometimes carry out track maintenance that can affect the route or journey time. If that looks likely for your dates, your travel consultant will keep you in the loop.

Yes, you can fly to Copenhagen instead of taking the train, if you’d prefer. To do this, select the relevant optional extra during the booking process, or contact your travel consultant.

Your travel consultant will select the flights that make the most sense with your itinerary timings.

Please note that this service will come with an additional charge.

After your stay in Copenhagen, you’ll travel to Oslo on an overnight cruise. You’ll depart in the mid-afternoon and arrive in Norway the following morning.

We’ll book you a private cabin with ensuite facilities and a small window. In the morning before docking in Oslo, your breakfast is included.

There are 2 ships operating the route, Nordic Pearl and Nordic Crown. On board both, you will find facilities such as lounges, restaurants, bars and a viewing deck. There are also daily activities and entertainment to enjoy. 

With this itinerary, you’ll travel from Oslo to Trondheim by train. This scenic journey follows a route not easily accessible by car, making it an unforgettable experience.

You’ll board the Dovrebanen train from Oslo Central Station. This railway, dating back to 1921, passes over the Dovre mountain plateau, through the Gudbrandsdalen valley and across Dovre National Park. These regions are rich in wildlife, so keep an eye out for unusual animals.

Towards the end of the journey, the train makes a steep descent to the lowlands. With over 548 kilometres (340 miles) of railway, it takes around 6.5 hours to complete the journey to Trondheim.

You will have assigned seats on most trains in Norway. Unfortunately, seat selection is outside our control. Because of this, please be aware that you may be assigned a seat that is backwards facing and not next to a window.

On this tour, you will hop aboard a coastal cruise, provided by either Hurtigruten or Havila Voyages, along the Norwegian west coast. You’ll be staying in your own cabin with private facilities.

Hurtigruten and Havila Voyages operate along the same route on different days. Your personal travel consultant will book the cruise on your behalf in light of your tour’s start date and the rest of your itinerary.

If you are travelling on a Hurtigruten cruise:
Hurtigruten ships offer a classic Norwegian experience, with cosy cabins furnished with either twin or double beds. Your room will be between 8-11 square metres (86-118 square feet) and will always include a port hole, but please note that a view from the window cannot be guaranteed.

Instead, Hurtigruten ships all offer comfortable viewing decks, dining areas and lounges. This way, you can spend your mornings and evenings relaxing with incredible views of the passing Norwegian coastline.

If you are travelling on a Havila Voyages cruise:
Havila Voyages ships are the newer cruise liners on the block. Their modern cabins are furnished with either twin or double beds and are all around 15 square metres (161 feet). Your room will have a port hole and a small sofa so you can watch the views of ocean or coastline go past. Or, head up to the lounge, restaurant or viewing deck to see more of the passing fjords.

Once you’ve booked, your travel consultant will arrange your cruise departure to fit seamlessly around your itinerary – and include all the details in your personal travel documents.

If you have a specific cruise in mind, check out our list of Hurtigruten and Havila Voyages sailing dates and let us know. We'll do our best to make it work. 

Hurtigruten and Havila Voyages are shipping companies which transport travellers along the Norwegian coastline. Both offer incredible views of spectacular fjords and charming coastal villages as they journey towards Norway’s north or south.

That said, both companies have their own histories and distinct characters. Your cruise experience will vary depending on which company you’re travelling with. We’ve broken down the key differences below so you know what to expect on your seafaring adventure.

Hurtigruten dates back to 1893, and many of its ships were originally used to transport post. Due to the historic nature of these cruises, each one differs in size and your room’s port hole window may not have a view. Instead, you can expect a cosy cabin stay, with access to charming lounges and restaurant areas that have floor-to-ceiling windows.

Havila Voyages are a newer company, with a focus on eco-friendly and sustainable travel. Their rooms are slightly larger and have views of either the ocean or the coastline from their port holes. Just like Hurtigruten, they offer on-board facilities such as relaxing lounges, restaurants and viewing decks.

Whichever company you travel with, you’ll enjoy a private cabin with either a double or twin beds and ensuite facilities. Please bear in mind that we cannot guarantee your cabin number for coastal voyages shorter than 5 nights.

When your ship is in port for longer than 30 minutes, you’ll have the option to disembark. Optional shore excursions will also be available on your journey, so make sure to pre-book any activities that interest you.

This tour includes the famous rail journey from Bergen to Oslo called Norway in a Nutshell® by Fjord Tours. This is one of Norway’s most iconic journeys. You’ll travel by train, bus and ferry, seeing beautiful landscapes of steep mountains, shimmering fjords, charming villages and scenic coastline.

The first leg of the journey is from Bergen to Flåm. Then you’ll travel from Flåm to Oslo. The duration of both days will be around 6 hours.

The connections will be announced and clearly explained in your travel documents. You will receive a ticket with all the information about transfer points and timings with your final travel documents.

You will have assigned seats on most trains in Norway. Unfortunately, seat selection is outside our control. Because of this, please be aware that you may be assigned a seat that is backwards facing and not next to a window. 

You can book an optional luggage transfer for the journey. If you do this, you’ll want to keep a backpack for your daily and overnight essentials. Your luggage will be waiting for you at your destination.

If you do not book a luggage transfer, you will have to carry your bags between the trains and boat. All connections will be within easy reach and there will be storage available for your luggage during each leg of the journey.

The transfers between your hotel and train stations or cruise ports are not included with this package. Usually your accommodation will be within short walking distance. You could also get a taxi from your hotel if you prefer.

After Scandinavia, you’ll fly to Iceland – the next chapter of your Nordic adventure.

Your travel consultant will find the best flight for your dates, aiming for a direct route where possible. Direct flights take around 2.5–3 hours. If a direct option isn’t available, we’ll book a connecting flight and let you know the full journey time once everything’s confirmed.

For luggage, each traveller can bring one checked bag (up to 23kg / 50lbs) and one carry-on (up to 10kg / 17lbs).

One thing to plan ahead: transfers from your Norwegian hotel to the airport aren’t included. A taxi or public transport will get you there – just factor in a little extra time, and you’ll be fine.

So when do you check in? And what can you expect upon landing in Keflavík?

After picking up your luggage, you will be greeted by a driver holding a sign with your name in the arrivals hall. The driver will hand over your welcome package with hard copies of your travel documents. You’ll then be driven to your hotel in Reykjavík.

Check-in times vary between hotels and guesthouses, but it normally starts between 2 PM and 4 PM. 

You are welcome to request an early check-in for an additional fee. Although this isn’t always available, you’ll be able to store your luggage at the hotel so you can start exploring before check-in. Please contact your travel consultant well in advance of your arrival if you’d like an early check-in.

Driving in Iceland during the summer months might be slightly different than what you’re used to. For this reason, you’ll want to make yourself aware of local driving laws and potential road hazards, such as:

• We drive on the right-hand side of the road
• Sheep sometimes roam onto the roads
• Most roads and motorways are single carriageways
• The first car to arrive at a single-lane bridge has right of way
• Iceland has quite a few tunnels, including one of the longest underwater road tunnels in the world
   

And finally, with all the beautiful scenery, you’ll want to take it slow and enjoy the drive!

For more information, we strongly recommend taking a few minutes to read through our guide to driving in Iceland. Additionally, when you arrive on your tour, you’ll receive a brochure telling you more about driving in Iceland.

Your car rental pick-up is scheduled for the day you drive out to the countryside. Reykjavík is a city best explored on foot. The main attractions are close together, parking in the centre can be a hassle – so we’ve kept things simple. No car on the days you won’t need one.

You’ll pick it up on the morning you head out of the city. Ready to go, right when it makes sense. The exact date will be confirmed in your travel documents before you arrive.

Iceland introduced a kilometre-based road tax on 1 January 2026 as a fairer way to fund the country’s road infrastructure. Instead of collecting road taxes through fuel prices (the old system), the government now charges based on road usage.

Here’s what this means for your rental:
• Your car rental company will take a fixed fee upon pick up based on your booking
• Fuel prices in Iceland have been lowered to offset this change, so your overall travel costs should remain similar

If you have any questions about this, please don’t hesitate to email us to ask.

On your Scandinavian and Icelandic adventure, you’ll stay in accommodation that’s been hand-picked by our travel experts.

We’ve partnered with local businesses in all countries as well as selected hotels and guesthouses so you can always expect a comfortable night’s stay. All accommodation is booked based on excellent ratings, comfort and our personal experience.

During the booking process, you can select whether you want Comfort Plus or Superior accommodation. Comfort Plus usually consists of standard rooms in good quality and comfortable 3-star hotels. Superior is standard rooms in 4-star hotels combined with superior rooms in premium 3-star hotels.

You will also be able to choose between single, double or triple rooms. Please note that in the Nordic countries room types are based on European standard sizes, which means they are smaller than in North America.

For example, a double bed often consists of 2 single beds pushed together. Twin rooms are 2 separate single beds. Triple rooms include a double bed along with an extra single bed, rollaway or sofa bed. And single rooms are often smaller than the standard double.

If you have anything specific in mind, please contact us to discuss customising your accommodation options.

Scandinavia is a beautiful destination all year long. But it’s good to be aware of a few things before picking the best time to visit for you.

During the summer months, June to August, you’ll have the warmest temperatures and longest daylight hours of the year. This is ideal for outdoor excursions and taking full advantage of your days for sightseeing.

If you’d like to experience the top attractions with fewer visitors around, then you could book a summer itinerary in May or September. These shoulder season months generally have more tour and attraction availability.

Independent tours of Scandinavia are also available during the rest of the year. But please be advised that if you are travelling in late March, April, late September or October, the weather is much milder, especially in Sweden and Norway. That said, there will still be more sunlight at this time of year than in winter.

Choose to travel in winter, November to February, and you’ll benefit from an itinerary of quieter towns and attractions. You can also expect fewer daylight hours, and the addition of snow-dusted mountains as a backdrop. It’s good to remember that in Scandinavia, northern lights can only really be seen from Northern Norway, Iceland, and Lapland.

Christmastime is another magical time of year to visit Scandinavia, with Christmas markets galore. But please note that there are limited opening hours during the holiday season.

Only you can pick the best time to visit Iceland for your trip. It’ll depend on how much time you have to explore, what you want to see in Iceland and any events you might like to attend.

In summer, June to August, you’ll have milder temperatures and longer daylight hours, compared to the winter. This is ideal for outdoor excursions and sightseeing. 

If you’d like to experience the top attractions with fewer visitors around then you could book your summer trip in May or September. These shoulder season months have more tour and attraction availability.

The winter months are also popular, but generally quieter, apart from the Christmas holiday season. This is the ideal time to try to spot the northern lights.

Find out what annual Icelandic events and festivals are on in our travel guide. Or read more about the best time to visit Iceland on our blog.

The capitals of Scandinavia are located quite far north in Europe so you can expect long daylight hours in summer.

In Helsinki, Finland, and Stockholm, Sweden, you can expect between 16 and 19 hours of daylight depending on how close you are to the solstice. Copenhagen in Denmark is slightly more south, so you’ll enjoy 14-17 daylight hours.

In Norway, Oslo, Bergen and Stavanger are relatively south, so you’ll experience 15–20 hours of daylight. If you visit the north, including locations such as Tromsø and Kirkenes, you can expect 20–24 hours of daylight.

The region’s long summer days give you plenty of time to explore. That said, you may want to pack a sleeping mask if you are a light sleeper or tend to wake up at dawn.

Find out more about time zones and daylight in this guide to time and daylight in Scandinavia.

Because of its northerly location close to the Arctic Circle, Iceland enjoys long days throughout the summer. 

Around the summer solstice, from early June until mid-July, you’ll experience almost 24 hours of daylight. This phenomenon, known as the midnight sun, occurs within the Arctic Circle and is when the sun doesn’t fully set below the horizon. 

These long daylight hours give you plenty of time to drive around and explore. That said, you may want to pack a sleeping mask if you are a light sleeper or tend to wake up at dawn. 

Find out what the daylight hours will be during the month of your visit in this guide to time and daylight in Iceland.

During the summer months, you can expect fairly stable weather across Scandinavia.

The months of June, July and August boast the warmest weather of the year. In Stockholm, Copenhagen and Oslo you can expect average temperatures between 17–20°C (61–68°F). This gets cooler in Bergen and then up the north coast of Norway. For example, Tromsø has average summer temperatures around 10°C (41–50°F).

In May and September, you can also expect milder conditions. Pack for temperatures closer to 11–14°C (52–57°F).

All that said, it’s good to know that weather conditions are often changeable in Northern Europe, so you should come ready for sun, rain and wind. For more information on the local climate, read the page Scandinavian weather conditions.

Please note that sightseeing is dependent on weather and road conditions. This means that your itinerary might need to be altered if these conditions are not favourable during your visit.

Summer in Iceland is mild and boasts the best weather and longest days of the year. You can expect temperatures of around 10–15°C (50–59°F), with potential lows of 5°C (41°F) and highs of 25°C (77°F). 

It’s good to know that weather conditions are changeable in Iceland, so you should come ready for sun, rain and wind. For more information on the local climate, read the page Iceland weather conditions. 

Please note that sightseeing is dependent on weather and road conditions. This means that your itinerary might need to be altered if these conditions are not favourable during your visit.

Summer has most stable weather of the year across Scandinavia, especially in the south of the region. That said, you should still be ready to experience all seasons in one day. Especially if you will be spending a lot of time outdoors, you’ll want to pack for a combination of weather conditions.

Bring lighter clothes for the warmer, sunny days. And don’t forget extra layers for chilly nights in the mountains or for taking in the view from cruise ship decks.

Here is an essential summer packing list for your trip to Scandinavia:
• Shorts and trousers
• T-shirts and long sleeve tops
• At least one warm jumper or fleece
• Waterproof jacket and trousers
• Light gloves, hat and scarf
• Comfortable walking or hiking shoes
• Sunglasses, sun hat and sunscreen
• Eye mask to sleep despite the long daylight hours
• Electronic gear such as smartphone, external powerpack, and travel adapters

• and don’t forget your camera!

An umbrella can also come in handy. If you are a wildlife watcher, you may wish to bring binoculars.

For more information, check out this Scandinavian packing list.

Even in summertime Iceland’s climate can feel cool. As you’ll probably spend a lot of time outdoors, you should be ready for a variety of weather conditions.

Here is a recommended summer packing list for your trip to Iceland:

You’ll move through a handful of different currencies on this trip. Finland and Estonia use the Euro (EUR). Sweden runs on the Swedish krona (SEK), Denmark on the Danish krone (DKK), and Norway on the Norwegian krone (NOK). Iceland? You’ll have guessed it: the króna (ISK). Similar names and similar coins, but only usable in each one’s home country.

The good news? You probably won’t need much of any of them. Card payments are widely accepted across all countries, and plenty of shops and restaurants actively prefer it.

That said, it’s worth keeping a little local cash on you. The occasional market stall or tucked-away rural café may not have a card reader – and those tend to be exactly the kind of places you’ll want to stop.

For more detail on payments and tipping in each country, our online Scandinavia Travel Guide & Iceland Travel Guide have everything you need.

When you travel with Nordic Visitor, breakfast at your accommodation is always included. For the rest of your meals, the amount of spending money you need will depend on the country you're in and the standard of restaurants you decide to go to.

In Helsinki and Tallinn, we recommend budgeting between 15–20 euros for lunch per person, each day. Dinner at casual restaurants might cost between €25–€40 for a main course. Meanwhile at upscale restaurants, you might expect to spend €70–€100 per person or more.

In Sweden, we recommend budgeting between 150–250 SEK for lunch per person, each day. Dinner at casual restaurants might cost between 300–500 SEK for a main course. Meanwhile at upscale restaurants, you might expect to spend at least 500–800 SEK per person.

In Copenhagen, these numbers will be closer to 150–250 DKK for lunch, 250–450 DKK for casual dinners and upwards of 600 DKK for upscale dining.

For Norway, you’ll want to budget 200–400 NOK per person per lunch. Dinners will be between 400–700 NOK for a main course, and upscale restaurants might charge upwards of 700–1,500 NOK.

During your time in Iceland, you can expect to spend between 2,000–3,000 ISK at lunch. Casual dinners might cost between 3,000–6,000 ISK and 7,000 ISK or more for upscale dining.

These general budgeting tips do not include the cost of alcoholic beverages.

Travelling with your kids? No problem! You'll be able to enter your children's ages during the booking process. This lets us know whether to arrange either a baby cot or roll-away bed for your trip.

If you'd like us to arrange for a car seat to be provided for your trip, please let us know ahead of time. It's also possible to book this directly with the car rental agency. This will incur a small, extra cost.

There are limited laundry facilities in the countryside, though you’ll find laundrettes in the larger cities and towns. Some hotels do offer dry cleaning for an additional cost.

Yes, we highly recommend getting travel insurance for your trip.

There are numerous insurance providers online, offering policies with varying levels of coverage. These will protect your finances in the event of illness or other medical emergencies, lost or damaged luggage, flight cancellation, trip curtailment, theft and much more.

If you have a passport from Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia or New Zealand, you won’t need a visa to visit Scandinavia. This visa-free entry is valid for up to 90 days.

Visiting from another country? You might need to apply for a Schengen visa. You can find out whether you require a visa to enter on the Sweden Government website, Ministry for Foreign Affairs of Finland or the Government of Denmark. You’ll need to apply to the consulate of the country where you will spend the most time, or the first country you will visit.

Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from your departure from the region. It’s good to check your passport expiry date early in case you need to renew it.

If you’re arriving from Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia or New Zealand, you won’t need a visa to visit Iceland. 

Visiting from another country? You can find the complete list of countries whose nationals require a visa to enter Iceland on the website of Iceland’s Directorate of Immigration. If you do require a visa, they maintain a list of local embassies that can assist you with the process. 

Your passport must also be valid for at least 3 months from your departure from Iceland. It’s good to check your passport expiry date early in case you need to renew it.
