It was a great tour. Our guide ( Stella ) was very informative, respectful and friendly. The driver was very cautious and helped us out& in in the Mini van. It was very enjoyable, strongly recommend this tour.

I travelled with my two children (18 and 3 years old). We all enjoy the scenery, the people in the small towns, the music and art. The Nordic tour guide knew the area and was very patient with everyone.
