Testimonials

Hi Bobby, We're back from our tour of Scandinavia and Russia. Wanted to reach out and say thanks again for making it such a successful trip. We loved getting to see all those different countries in only a week. The whole trip was highly organized and the guide we had was very professional. Other than the poor weather in Stockholm, it stayed sunny the majority of the time which we were both thankful for. There were so many things we loved in each city, but just being on those guided city tours was a lot of fun. I always enjoy learning about the history and culture of each new place I visit. It gives you a new perspective and you tend to appreciate your surroundings a bit more while you're there if you're actually familiar with it.

Dear Bobby, I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for a job well done on our Russia tour. Everything worked out perfectly. Our compartments were next to each other on both trains, our visas were easy to obtain, and you were always quickly responsive to our questions. Many of our friends have been very interested in our trip to Russia and we have always mentioned you and Nordic Saga Tours as a great booking agent. Thanks again from all of us.

Hi Dora, It’s Wendy, writing to you from my home office. I wanted to send a quick note about the tour to Scandinavia and Russia back in July. There were many highlights along the way of course, but my personal favorite spot was probably Balestrand. Exploring the fjords and that town on our own was relaxing and perfect for us. The cruise to Helsinki was beautiful, but unfortunately, Rick was terribly ill and spent most of the night in the lavatory. I don’t know if it was food related or perhaps a bit of motion sickness, but I felt just so awful for him. I spoke to one of the workers onboard but there wasn’t much he could do to help, either.

Dora, Many thanks for your superb organization and planning of our trip to Scandinavia in July. The balance between travel, tours, and rest periods was just right. We adjusted to the jet lag pretty quickly, which I was so happy about! All of the hotels were perfectly located which enabled us to get up early (I’m always up by 4:30 or 5:00), explore our surroundings for a bit, and then meet back at the hotel to eat breakfast before getting picked up for the day tour. We had only one issue with the hotel in Copenhagen; they accidentally gave us a handicap room which made things a bit strange, especially in the bathroom. We informed our guide though and they got it straightened out and switched us to a different room.

Hi Bobby, We are home after a pleasant trip to Scandinavia with great friends, breathtaking scenery, amazing food, awesome hotels, and unforgettable memories! Loved the train trip on the Bergen Railway. The many ferry crossings we made were also spectacular. I can’t really put into words how beautiful this part of the world is. The fjords are majestic and unlike anything I’ve ever seen before. The tour was well coordinated and almost everything worked out as it was supposed to. The only issue we came across was the day we spent in Stockholm. The weather wasn’t cooperating (lots of rain), and some of the sights we wanted to see on our free time were either closed for repairs or closed for the day. Oh well.

Dear Dora, We are back from our Scandinavian tour and didn't have any problems, neither in Scandinavia or in Russia. We enjoyed this vacation quite a lot. What made it so very special was the private tours that you arranged for us. It gave us quite an insight into the everyday life of people in Russia and Scandinavia. Maria in St. Petersburg was a jewel and her knowledge of Russian art is amazing. Time just flew when we were with her. She is quite a lady. Olga in Moscow was also very nice and friendly. We were also quite impressed by Alexander, the guide in Oslo. He is a great with the patience of a saint. The only negative from our trip was the traffic jams, especially in St. Petersburg.
