Best Gothenburg Tours & Trips
The second largest city in Sweden has long lived in the shadow of Stockholm, but is emerging as a leisurely yet alluring alternative to the fast-paced capital. Gothenburg, which Forbes ranked as the 12th most inventive city in the world, is a youthful metropolis with one of Europe’s largest student populations. It is also home to Scandinavia’s largest amusement park, Liseberg, and the best museum for children in Sweden, Universeum, replete with roaring dinosaurs, a rainforest, a shark tunnel and a Velcro wall.

Fast-Paced but Amazing Value
I did the full 7-day tour, and wow—it was busy but worth every moment. From Copenhagen’s charm to Stockholm’s elegance and the breathtaking fjords, it felt like a complete Scandinavian adventure. The itinerary is definitely packed, but that’s how you see so much in a short time. Hotels were fine for the price, and breakfasts were basic but convenient. Overall, I felt it was a great way to see a lot without the hassle of planning.

I can't recommend this tour enough! The drive through Norway’s majestic fjords was out of this world. The cultural stops in Bergen and Oslo made the trip even more enriching. We enjoyed both the history and the breathtaking landscapes. If you love nature and culture, this is the perfect tour for you!
