Sweden and Norway | Fjords, Fika, and Friendships: A Women's TravelCircle to Sweden and Norway
Over 13 days, we’ll dive into the heart of Norway and Sweden. You’ll kayak through quiet fjords, ride one of the world’s most scenic railways, stroll through medieval old towns, and relax in floating saunas. Along the way, we’ll meet local women artists and changemakers, enjoy fika in cozy cafés, and immerse ourselves in the stories that shape this vibrant region.
We begin in Bergen, a coastal gem tucked between sea and mountains. Here we’ll paddle shimmering waters, explore UNESCO-listed harbors, taste fresh Nordic flavors, and connect with local women creatives. From there, we journey through breathtaking landscapes to Oslo, a city known for its focus on sustainability, wellness, and social progress. We’ll walk its historic streets, visit the Nobel Peace Center, and soak in sauna culture by the fjord.
Our adventure continues in Stockholm, Sweden’s elegant capital of islands and ideas. We’ll wander cobbled streets, explore feminist history and Nordic design, forest bathe in national parks, and share a sound healing session to ground and reflect.
If you’re ready for more, an optional 4-night extension to Finland offers the perfect final chapter. In Helsinki, the world’s happiest country, we’ll forage in the forest, relax in traditional saunas, hear stories from local women leaders, and experience the quiet beauty of life by the water.
