Fresh Pink Line-Seven-day Three Nordic Countries Loop Tour

Depart in the morning for a sightseeing tour of Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark. Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark—the fairy-tale kingdom—evokes childhood memories. The Little Mermaid statue by the sea, inspired by Andersen's fairy tale The Little Mermaid, has become a renowned symbol of Denmark, especially after the 2010 Shanghai World Expo. The Royal Guard at Amalienborg Palace also features prominently in Andersen's tales. With a bit of luck, you might catch the ceremonial guard change! Explore the city's pedestrian streets, including the Andersen statue, City Hall Square, and Nyhavn. After lunch, we'll head north toward Stockholm, often called the Venice of the North.

This day offers a special complimentary one-hour Stockholm Citywalk experience, led by a local guide to explore the city.

Depart in the morning for Stockholm. Located on Lake Mälaren, Stockholm is Sweden's capital, where old and new districts blend seamlessly. The old town boasts numerous historical sites, while the new city center presents a neat and orderly appearance. With lush green parks and rows of shops, it is hailed as the most beautifully landscaped city in Northern Europe. After lunch, begin the Stockholm city tour: the elegant City Hall, whose “Blue Hall” hosts the annual Nobel Prize award ceremonies. The most striking feature is the magnificent Golden Hall, adorned with 19 million pieces of gold-plated mosaic. Subsequently, visit the Old Parliament Building, the wreck of the 17th-century warship Vasa, the Royal Palace, and the Cathedral.

*City walk reminder: As this activity is physically demanding, we advise you to wear comfortable sneakers and baggy garments; if it is disrupted by force majeure (such as bad weather, traffic restriction, or strike), we will have the right to temporarily cancel this activity and all tourist attractions are not available for the tourists.

Depart in the morning for Lillehammer, a city of just over 23,000 people situated on the shores of Norway's largest lake, Mjøsa. It served as the host city for the 1994 Winter Olympics. Enjoy the natural scenery along the way, arriving at your overnight destination in the evening. Please note: The itinerary excludes a tour of Lillehammer.

Depart in the morning for Norway's Briksdal Glacier, the largest glacier on the European continent and part of the protected Jostedal Glacier National Park. This glacial giant spans 486 square kilometers, reaches a maximum depth of 400 meters, and rises to an elevation of 1,950 meters. Upon arrival, you may opt to take an electric sightseeing vehicle at your own expense. Along the way, you could enjoy views of lush green valleys, wildflowers blooming everywhere, crystal-clear streams, rushing rivers, and cascading waterfalls. The journey takes approximately half an hour to reach the electric sightseeing vehicle's terminal. After a short 10-minute walk from the stop, you can get up close to the Briksdal Glacier, which stretches up to 346 meters. In the afternoon, we will head south toward Gudvangen.

Depart in the morning for Gudvangen Terminal, take the ferry to the opposite shore, then drive to Flam. Tour members may opt to ride one of the world's most beautiful railways, exploring the Flam Railway. This exhilarating stretch of track draws travelers around the globe, offering gorgeous views of stunning fjords, waterfalls, and valleys. We then drive to the “optional activity” at Stegastein Viewpoint, where a platform extends out over the road, providing elevated vistas of the Aurland Fjord. The Aurlandsfjellet is the most pristine and spectacular branch of the Sognefjord, known as the “King of Fjords.” Here, towering peaks, lush forests, cascading waterfalls, and misty clouds blend with mountains, water, and ice to create a majestic landscape painting (Due to strict vehicle control measures in place for those heading to the viewpoint, whether arrangements can be made depends on the weather conditions and traffic flow on the day). After the tour, we will return to Flam for lunch on your own. In the afternoon, optionally join a sightseeing boat cruise into the Sognefjord to enjoy nature's breathtaking craftsmanship. As the world's longest and deepest fjord, Sognefjord boasts unparalleled natural wonders. Spend two enchanting hours cruising amidst these stunning vistas before returning to the hotel for dinner.

Depart in the morning for Oslo, the capital of Norway, to visit the City Hall built to commemorate the city's 900th anniversary. Every December 10th (the anniversary of Nobel's death), the Nobel Peace Prize is awarded at the City Hall. Unlike the other four prizes presented in Stockholm, Sweden, the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony takes place in Oslo, Norway. The award is presented by the Chair of the Norwegian Nobel Committee, with the King of Norway presiding. Next, we will visit the world-renowned Vigeland Park to admire the masterpieces of sculptor Vigeland, whose works often depict the diverse aspects of human life.

Depart in the morning heading south toward Gothenburg, one of Sweden's major ports. Gothenburg's ice-free harbor operates year-round, serving as a key commercial gateway between Sweden and Western Europe, facing Denmark's northern tip across the water. The city's famous attractions—including the Poseidon statue, Gothenburg Fish Market, and Gothenburg Church—draw hundreds of thousands of domestic and international tourists annually. Then we will head toward Copenhagen in the evening.
