About Sweden
Sweden is a stunning Scandinavian country that combines elegant architecture, pristine nature, and cultural richness. From the cobbled charm of Stockholm’s Gamla Stan to the laid-back vibes of Gothenburg, and from the alpine beauty of Åre to the snow-covered silence of Lapland, each destination reveals a different facet of Swedish life. Whether you're indulging in Michelin-starred cuisine, exploring cutting-edge museums, or chasing the Northern Lights, Sweden delivers a well-rounded and luxurious experience for every traveller.
My Experience
We started our journey in Stockholm, where the Grand Hôtel treated us to sweeping waterfront views. Strolling through the old town of Gamla Stan was like stepping into a storybook, and the Vasa and ABBA Museums were true highlights of cultural exploration. Dining at Frantzén was an unforgettable experience of modern Swedish cuisine.
In Gothenburg, we loved the charm of Haga and the boat rides through the canals. The day trip to Marstrand Island felt like entering a peaceful postcard scene.
The final leg of the journey took us into nature relaxing at Copperhill Mountain Lodge in Åre, and experiencing Sámi culture and the magic of the Icehotel in Lapland. It was the perfect mix of urban, cultural, and natural delights.
