Tour Reviews
PROFESSIONAL, HIGH VALUE EXPERIENCE! (review fr TripAdvisor)
We built our Scandinavian vacation around this Winter Market Tour. We couldn’t have made a better decision! The activities were well planned and representative of the culture, geography and the season. The tour guides, Mirja and Christian, provided wonderful experiences either directly or by partnering with others in the area with specific skills and knowledge. This produced a memorable learning experience. We highly recommend this tour specifically but in general any product they offer. You can book with confidence! /Pioneer254043
