Railway Adventures' Scandinavia by Rail, Road and Sea is a 19-day escorted journey through Sweden and Norway, beginning in Stockholm and concluding in Oslo. Departing in July 2026, the trip blends four celebrated scenic railway lines (the Inlandsbanan, Nordland, Rauma, and Flåm), a Hurtigruten cruise through the Arctic Lofoten Islands, and coach travel to connect key stops. Along the way, you will visit Lapland's Sámi cultural sites, the medieval cathedral city of Trondheim, and Ålesund's Art Nouveau architecture. The tour is led throughout by an expert guide and features premium accommodation and local Nordic cuisine. At roughly 3,000 kilometres of combined rail and cruise travel, the itinerary suits travellers who want Scandinavia's dramatic fjords, mountains, and northern wilderness without the stress of planning transport and logistics independently.
