Scandi Dream Group Tour

Eight-day Scandinavian group tour from Copenhagen to Stockholm by rail and coach

Illustration of Scandi Dream Group Tour

Euroventure's Scandi Dream Group Tour is an eight-day introduction to Copenhagen, Oslo, Gothenburg, and Stockholm, staying in hostels and traveling with a tour leader of up to 20 travellers. The journey splits time across three Scandinavian cities: three nights in Copenhagen include Tivoli Gardens with unlimited rides and explorations of creative neighbourhoods; a night in Oslo adds a fjord cruise aboard a traditional sailing ship and a floating sauna dip; a day trip to Gothenburg's canals and Slottsskogen Park breaks the journey before a final two nights in Stockholm, anchored by a guided walk through the 17th-century Old Town with Swedish fika. All train and coach travel between cities is included, and a dedicated tour leader coordinates logistics, guided activities, and visits to major museums. The pace is relaxed with multi-night stays in each base, and the itinerary balances structure (three included activities) with free time for exploration. This tour suits first-time rail travellers seeking hassle-free guided travel, budget-conscious visitors drawn to hostel stays, and solo travellers who want group energy and leader support.
