On our partly guided tours in the Baltics you have the freedom of travelling on your own combined with meeting qualified guides for sightseeing tours. Thus, you will get the most out of the places you visit.
On our partly guided tours in Scandinavia, such as our city breaks in Oslo, Copenhagen, Stockholm and Helsinki, you will be travelling with a group (max. 28 persons) but with no tour escort in each destination. Your group will meet qualified local guides for sightseeing tours and day excursions. In case the city breaks are combined with one another or combined with a guided coach tour, you will travel independently (without a group or a guide) by train or overnight cruise to the next destination.
