Welcome to Sweden

Sweden offers so many opportunities, whatever kind of holiday you have in mind. Sweden is a country where everyone speaks English. From the deep south to the far north Sweden has a wide variety of climates, activities and scenery.

Sweden is the third largest country in Western Europe. Because of its long, narrow shape and northerly location, the landscape is highly diversified.

From exciting survival camps in the untouched wilderness to relaxing on a cruise in the island-rich archipelago, from standing on the top of a snow-covered mountain to hanging at a bar at one of Europe’s finest nightclubs, whatever your heart desires you will find it here.
