Why choose a holiday in Sweden?

Sweden is a breathtaking holiday destination that offers a unique diversity, making it ideal for both adventurous travellers and families looking for relaxation. You can explore the country in a variety of ways, each with its own charm:

  • Tour with hotels : Perfect for those seeking the luxury of comfort while discovering the most beautiful areas of Sweden.
  • Luxury bungalow tour : Enjoy the comfort of a bungalow, where you experience a combination of nature and luxury.
  • Simple tour in stuga's : For the adventurous traveller who wants the real Swedish experience, simple wooden cottages (stuga's) are available that offer you an authentic atmosphere.
  • Tour with vandrarhem : Budget-friendly and ideal for travelers who want to meet others. The vandrarhem (youth hostels) are often located in beautiful locations and offer a cozy atmosphere.

To really explore this beautiful nature and culture, you usually use a car, with which you travel effortlessly from one region to another. But cycling and walking holidays are also popular options for those who want to experience the adventure closer to nature.

Diversity of the Swedish regions

Sweden is divided into several regions, each with their own unique characteristics. The three most south-Swedish and therefore most easily accessible provinces are:

  1. Skåne : Known for its vast beaches, rolling hills and picturesque villages, cities such as Malmö and Lund are well worth a visit.
  2. Blekinge : This county is known for its skerries and beautiful coastline. Karlskrona, with its rich maritime history, offers a picturesque experience.
  3. Halland : With its beautiful sandy beaches and forests, Halland is an ideal destination for nature lovers. The town of Halmstad is a popular base.

Tip : Please note that the southern Swedish accent, Skåne, is very similar to Danish. If you have already taken a Swedish language course, do not despair if you have difficulty understanding the language in southern Sweden.

Stockholm and the Skärgarden Region

The capital, Stockholm, is a city that combines history, culture and beauty. Here you will find numerous museums, galleries and historical sights such as the Royal Palace and the Vasa Museum. The nearby Skärgarden, an archipelago of thousands of islands, offers endless opportunities for relaxation, sailing and enjoying nature. The combination of the vibrant city and the serene nature makes Stockholm a highlight of any trip to Sweden.

Child-friendly Sweden

Sweden is also a particularly child-friendly country. It has numerous attractions and activities for young families. Three beautiful parks where children can have fun are:

  1. Astrid Lindgren's World in Vimmerby: A theme park based on the creations of children's book author Astrid Lindgren, filled with exciting rides and living stories.
  2. Liseberg in Gothenburg: Offering a range of rides, from roller coasters to playgrounds, this amusement park provides a day of fun and entertainment.
  3. Universeum in Gothenburg: A science centre that challenges children with interactive exhibits, aquariums and a rainforest.

Peace, Space and Nature

Sweden is known for its vast nature, peace and space. This serene environment offers the opportunity to relax and recharge, away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. It is a place where you can lose yourself in the beautiful forests and lakes. The moose, the national symbol of Sweden, can often be seen in these regions. Visit one of the moose parks, such as the Taverna and Moose Park in Rättvik, where you can see these majestic animals up close.

Active holidays on land and water

For active holidaymakers, Sweden has a lot to offer. Mountain biking in the forests of Dalarna, where you can discover challenging trails, or canoeing on the tranquil lakes of Sweden are just a few examples of what you can do. There are countless routes and opportunities for every level of adventurer.

Swedish coziness of small things

And don’t forget the coziness of the little things that make Sweden so special, like ‘fika’ – a traditional coffee and cake moment that gives you the chance to relax and celebrate life in good company. With friendly people and a warm atmosphere, Sweden is truly a destination that will win your heart.

Why choose Holmstock Travel

We travel a lot through Sweden ourselves, as a travel agency and also privately.

It is our vision that we can provide you with excellent advice and help you put together your holiday to Sweden, for example, because we are immersed in the country, the subject and the experience ourselves. Not just working from an office in the Netherlands, but hands-on on site. With knowledge of the country and often with insider knowledge of various unique places. We are not so-called travel designers who have to work with only online contacts and theoretical knowledge. We have been there ourselves, as you can see from our own photography that is online here and that was often taken with 'only' a mobile phone. We often know the sounds on site when you wake up, the local places where you can enjoy yourself or where you can get local delicacies. When it comes to small group trips, we are your driver and guide ourselves. We call our trips 'artisanal' because, just like your butcher or preferred baker, we still make them ourselves. We put a lot of time and passion into it, with the aim of offering you a very nice holiday.

Not masses of sample trips online, but a good tailor-made proposal.

Let our site be an introduction and not a travel shop with large shelves. Through this introduction we invite you to come into conversation. We adjust every trip exactly as it should be. Whether you want to travel to Dalarna or Gotland. Very luxurious or just off grid basic. Almost everything is possible. Let's talk!

Signed with a smile and kind regards,
Holmstock Travel
