Scandinavian Tour Companies

I am planning a trip to Scandinavia (particularly Norway), and am considering doing a tour. However, I have been having touble finding reviews....I usually like to hear from someone who has used a company before booking.

Has anyone used these companies? Or know of their reputations? Thanks in advance.

We have had Nordicsaga make independent tour reservations for us and have been very happy with them. Also, we booked a tour with them - Helsinki to St Petersburg, Russia. They took care of getting our Russian Visa for us.

Hi kavedweller! If you would like to explore Norway in the best way I would like to recommend for you a trip me and my friends did last summer. It included glaciers, Oslo, Bergen, Fjords and hidden spots! We traveled in a small group an experienced the real Norway. This was not a busholiday but with a lot of fun and hiking. Their website is:

And btw it was really cheap and everything was included!

If you can find a similar tour, I would check/match prices with this company. They are a discounter. We used then for Scandinavia last August and were very happy with their customer service and discount. The discount check comes with all the paperwork, about a month before the tour.

Good research. We did a Tauck Tour, that is the same itinerary as 5 Stars of Scandinavia. We got 5% off with Pavlus and then I received another $150 for each of the three couples with us from Pavlus. Have a great trip. Richard
