Itinerary in detail

Every Jacada trip is tailored to your personal preferences and interests. Below you’ll find a sample itinerary to inspire your own custom-designed journey.

Days 1–3

Two nights in Stockholm

Enjoy your days exploring Stockholm, Sweden’s beautiful capital. Set over 14 islands, it’s a place of water and greenery as much as the urban, a place where centuries of history meet the constant forward thinking nature of its near 1 million inhabitants. As well as fine museums, trend-setting restaurants and vibrant nightclubs, a short cruise out of the city will find you among the thousands of beautiful islands that make up the Stockholm archipelago.

Visit Stockholm's highlights

A classical building with Swedish flags under a clear sky.

Visit some of the city’s most popular highlights, including the Vasa Museum, the Royal Palace and the City Hall. Wander down hidden alleyways between medieval buildings in Gamla Stan (the old town). Then you’ll end the tour with glimpses of some of Stockholm’s city districts, like Södermalm, Djurgården, Norrmalm and Östermalm.

Days 3–6

Two Nights in Swedish Lapland

Located in the Arctic Circle, Swedish Lapland is a vast wilderness of snowy forests, frozen lakes and one of the places you can view the Northern Lights. Known for its Sámi culture and Arctic activities, it offers an authentic connection to nature and serene beauty.

A seasonal dinner at Pine Bay Lodge

Appetising canapés with smoked salmon, cream cheese, caviar, and dill on a wooden surface.

An expert chef will prepare a sumptuous seasonal menu for you, featuring the best and freshest ingredients available. Think salmon, caviar, trout and wild game like moose and reindeer. After dinner you will head out to a nearby island by boat for coffee and tea prepared over a fire, and perhaps a glimpse of the northern lights.

Foraging forest walk

This tour includes a short walk through the beautiful pine and the birch forest to the meadows surrounding the Treehotel. Discover the flavours of nature as you make your way to the warm restaurant you will will enjoy homemade treats made from foraged treasures.

Days 6–9

Three nights in Copenhagen

Denmark often tops the polls of the world’s happiest countries and its capital tends to put a smile on the faces of all who visit. Its compact centre is a maze of cobbled streets easily navigated by foot or on the Danes’ favourite mode of transport, the bicycle. Originally a Viking fishing village, Copenhagen has evolved into one of Europe’s most sophisticated cities. Spread across the two islands of Zealand and Amager and separated from Sweden by the Øresund Bridge, it is a city of contrasts, seamlessly blending classic architecture with cutting edge modern design.

Walking tour of Copenhagen's highlights

This morning a guide will meet your hotel and introduce you to Copenhagen. You will start in the oldest part of town, dating back to 1160. You will pass by the University, the Queen’s Palace and the Round Tower. You will make your way to Christiansborg Palace where the parliament resides and here you can enter the tower and enjoy a view of the Copenhagen skyline.

Visit the free town of Christiania

A colorful street adorned with red and yellow lanterns, graffiti walls, and empty benches.

Enjoy a guided tour of the famous town of Christiania, which has been a symbol of the Danish free spirited mentality since the 70s. A citizen from Christiania will take you through the colourful houses, the painted walls and people hanging out and you will gain insider knowledge about this unique space.

Delve into new Nordic cuisine

Open-faced shrimp sandwiches garnished with herbs on a paper-lined table.

Get a glimpse behind-the-scenes of new Nordic cuisine with a food expert. While you move around the city you will sample many of the best products on offer and meet restaurateurs, produce providers and chefs. End at Palægade – Copenhagen’s best open-faced sandwich place for lunch.

Days 9–12

Three nights in Bergen

Known as ‘The City of the Seven Mountains and Seven Fjords’, Bergen is a bustling port town on Norway’s west coast. It is a relaxed and easy-going town, very much in touch with its nautical roots. The lively main harbour, Vagen, and the Fish Market lie at the town’s heart and the city is probably best known for the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Bryggen Hanseatic Wharf with its colourful traditional wooden houses. Often touted as one of Norway’s most enjoyable cities, Bergen boasts some of the region’s best restaurants. There’s also a great choice of museums and galleries, meaning that you’ll have no trouble keeping yourself entertained during your stay.

Bergen city tour

Today you will explore Bergen, Norway’s UNESCO gateway city to the fjords. Stroll around the fairy-tale-like old cobbled streets and small wooden houses and discover the well-known, old Hanseatic wharf with its unique architecture. A stop at the city’s fish market for a little bit of local hustle and bustle in a picturesque setting will also be part of the tour, as will a trip up the funicular to Mount Floyen for remarkable views back across Bergen.
