Scandinavia June
Planning on a trip to Scandinavia mid June. 4 adults. Stopping in London for a few days than on to Scandinavia on the morning of Sunday the 12th. Returning to the US on the morning of the 21st of June from Bergen. I have spent a fair amount of time in Copenhagen in the past and only a brief time in Oslo and Stockholm but that was in the 80's. No one else has been to Scandinavia. All experienced travelers and amenable to driving/flying or train. Considering dividing up our time with Copenhagen, Stockholm and Bergen/Fijords although we might just do 2 out of the three. Any advice as to how to use our time?

Copenhagen, is a special cycling city (they passed the inflection point where more journeys are made by bike than car some years back, so visiting without at least a ride is missing the point of the place. Get whoever hires you the bike to take you through the local cycling laws, everything is 3 gear and basically flat so enjoy.
We did the Fjords in an open top car (grand until it rains) but the train is equally special.
