The littlest and southernmost of the Scandinavian countries, Denmark is the gateway to Scandinavia. It offers a beguiling mix of lively cities and rural countryside.
Norway is a country of dramatic contrasts with Rugged Fjords snarling at angry seas, spectacular waterfalls streaking down deep ravines, rolling farmlands, enchanted forests, Viking ships, medieval churches presiding over remote little towns, modern cities like Oslo, Bergen which have distinctive Scandinavian personalities
From berserker Vikings to Nobel Prize in just a few centuries - Sweden really has earned its reputation as a model for progressive society. Throw in its gorgeous people, high standard of living, clean-lined design and magically archipelagic capital, Stockholm, and you're onto a very good thing.
