Places You'll See

  • Stockholm

    Stockholm, one of the most beautiful capitals in the world, is built on 14 islands connected by 57 bridges. The beautiful buildings, the greenery, the fresh air, and the proximity to the water are distinctive traits of this city. With its 750 year history and rich cultural life, Stockholm offers a wide selection of world-class museums and attractions. Most of the city’s attractions can be reached on foot, and there’s a good chance of experiencing a lot of things in a short time. Experience big-city life, the history of civilization, and natural scenery, all in the course of the same day. The world’s first National city park can be found in Stockholm. It stretches for six miles around and through the city and includes areas like; Hagaparken, Djurgården, Fjäderholmarna, and many more.

  • Fjäderholmarna Island

    Often referred to as the gateway to the Stockholm Archipelago, Fjäderholmarna is the closest island group to the city center and makes for an ideal day excursion. Visitors can stroll along scenic coastal paths, browse artisan workshops, enjoy waterfront dining, and experience the relaxed atmosphere that characterizes Sweden’s island lifestyle. 

  • Nynäshamn

    Located on Sweden’s southeastern coast, Nynäshamn serves as a picturesque gateway to the Baltic Sea and the island of Gotland. This charming harbor town offers beautiful coastal scenery, seaside promenades, and a relaxed maritime atmosphere. Its bustling port provides an ideal starting point for the ferry journey across the Baltic. 

  • Visby

    Encircled by remarkably preserved medieval walls, Visby is one of Northern Europe’s most enchanting historic towns and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its winding streets, ivy-covered stone buildings, church ruins, and vibrant gardens create a storybook setting that transports visitors back centuries. The town’s lively cafés, boutiques, and waterfront promenade perfectly complement its rich medieval character. 

  • Gotland

    Sweden’s largest island offers a unique combination of natural beauty, cultural heritage, and laid-back island charm. From dramatic sea stacks and sandy beaches to medieval villages and rolling countryside, Gotland presents a diverse landscape unlike anywhere else in Scandinavia. The island’s slower pace, rich history, and exceptional local cuisine make it one of Sweden’s most rewarding destinations.

Arctic Adventure – Norway & Svalbard

My father and I travelled to Svalbard, Norway, this summer. This was our third arctic circle trip in 8 years set up by Monica at Yampu (Iceland, Finland and now Norway), and were each outside the normal Yampu destinations (showing their flexibility). Our itinerary was originally prepared for Greenland but evolved into the Svalbard expedition. Since our interest was in wildlife, Monica made sure that we would be satisfied in our quest for photographing animals–from a remote lodge in Costa Rica, to a remote outpost on the Finnish-Russian border in a bear blind; to a reindeer farm in Alaska; and this time a walrus colony in the Arctic. Yampu mixes luxury and comfort where possible along with a rugged experience that endears you to each location. Every transfer was met, and even small details (like my birthday) were accounted for in surprising way. In a short number of days (9 days total), time was given to visit Oslo and experience the city and culture on the bookends of the trip. Ultimately, after using other travel firms in the past, we will never look back. Yampu is AMAZING!!
