Warm-hearted, fun loving and free-spirited, Denmark is a traveler's delight. The smallest and most southern of the Scandinavian countries, Denmark offers an interesting mix of lively cities and rural countryside. Ancient castles, ring forts, jazz festivals, the sleekest modern design you'll ever see and the people who invented Lego. Denmark's ancient past almost tells its own story with its barrows, country manors, churches, well-preserved market towns and modern architecture. In Denmark you will find that the distances are short and this makes it possible to combine it all.
Norway is a country of contrasts, with scenery so varied it never ceases to amaze. In summertime it is the land of the Midnight Sun; in winter, the land of the Northern Lights. Norway is a land of tradition, exemplified by its rustic stave churches and its folk dances. But Norway is also modern. This technologically advanced nation is rich in petroleum and hydroelectric energy. One of the last great natural frontiers of the world, Norway invites exploration, with its steep and jagged fjords, salmon-filled rivers, glaciers, mountains, and meadows. In the winter, the shimmering aurora borealis (northern lights) are the lure, before giving way to the midnight sun of summer.
Russia, the largest country in the world, spans 11 time zones from the Baltic Sea to the Pacific, and is the only country to boast land borders with countries as diverse as Norway and Korea. Moscow is the showcase capital of the country, featuring its history in resplendent glory in such iconic landmarks as Red Square and St. Basil`s Cathedral. St. Petersburg is its former imperial capital, and is another city positively dripping with history, architectural marvel, and culture. Experience the beautiful country that has contributed so much to literature, culture, and society, Russia, where East meets West.
The third largest country in Western Europe, it presents visitors with countless lakes and waterways, surrounded by vast pine and spruce forests in the north, mixed with romantic oak, birch and other leafy forests further south. Sweden offers blood-boiling rapids, soothing streams and wakeboarding waves. And there is so much more - from the Höganäs ceramics of western Skåne in the south, to the finely carved wood, bone and textile handicrafts of the Sami people in northern Lapland - and all the provinces in between, with their countless workshops full of weavers and spinners, gold and silver smiths, stonemasons, woodcarvers and much more.
Finland is perhaps best known for its peacefulness and beautiful nature. During the months of the midnight sun, coastal regions are a sailing and fishing paradise. Inland, the largest unspoiled wilderness in Europe attracts thousands of trekkers every year. In the south, the capital Helsinki is a paradise for lovers of art and architecture. Finland offers visitors a tremendous variety of sights and experiences, everything from sophisticated Helsinki to magnificent islands and lakes, wilderness adventures, reindeer safaris, dog sledding, and more.
