From trendy Stockholm to off-the-grid fishing cabins, Sweden does it in style.
Cities of Design Browse Acne Studios, Filippa K and other top Swedish designers during a guided shopping tour of Stockholm on a ten-day, arts-focused Scandinavian escape. Discover Södermalm, an emerging bohemian neighborhood, and Millesgården, featuring the private homes and studios of Carl and Olga Milles. You’ll also explore the creative sides of Oslo, Bergen and Copenhagen.
A six-day autumnal tour shows off Sweden’s north when it’s still warm enough for outdoor barbecues, and the aurora borealis is just starting its nightly shows. Spend two days on the coast in Lapland, where you’ll meet friendly reindeer and forage for mushrooms and berries. Venture another two days in the wilderness in Harads, paddling the Lule River, spotting elk and soaking up the heat of the sauna. This tour finishes with an overnight stay in an ice-carved room.
Wilderness Connection Go off the grid on a private island in remote Gästrikland. Your tidy, red-and-white cabin doesn’t have electricity, but there is a gas stove and fridge, and you’ll be stocked with fresh, organic ingredients and recipes. Two nights in the wilderness conclude at a remote, but well-equipped inn, with the comforts of a modern lakefront sauna and chef-prepared meals made with ingredients from the permaculture kitchen garden.

An abundance of cultural treasures
Traveling across Europe opens your eyes to a world of unparalleled culture and history. It often seems impossible to choose between the Renaissance art of Florence and the Impressionist paintings of Paris; Germany’s Bavarian castles and the bustling multicultural London streets. The wealth of knowledge acquired in Europe is an asset of a lifetime – its only rivals being the people and food you’ll encounter along the way! Close proximity of individual countries makes it easy to incorporate any number of them into your trip, while each country is more than worthy of a focused, extended stay as you immerse yourself in the culture and communities.
The Possibilities Are Endless
Set to a backdrop of an impressive variety of landscapes, from lush tropical rainforests to the breath-taking Rocky Mountain range, North America offers a unique adventure for every traveler. Take a road trip along the Pacific Coast highway, zip-line through Canada’s temperate rainforests, or journey through Mexico’s Copper Canyon by train. The endless opportunities of the land will leave you wanting to discover more.
