Sweden is like a romantic fairy-tale. Narrow cobbled lanes wiggling this way and that, crisp snow-capped mountains and bright vivacious vistas combine to make Sweden couples holidays utterly unique. If it’s culture you’re after, make the country’s capital city, Stockholm, your base. Explore the mesmerising ABBA museum and Fotografiska gallery by day, then drink the evening away at Mälarpaviljongen, a fairy-light-festooned oasis floating atop the rippling waters of Stockholm’s Riddarfjärden bay. Or, if a view is what you and your other half are looking for, appreciate the sunset with a cocktail in hand at one of the capital’s many trendy rooftop bars, where sweeping panoramas drenched in a golden glow make the world dissolve around you. For a taste of adventure, head north to Åre for a few days of first-class skiing in an unforgettable alpine setting. As summer sets in, central Sweden is the perfect place for meandering walks through swaying emerald fields on mild evenings, or you could head west for a plunge into the chilly waters that surround the idyllic Gothenburg archipelago. Walk along the Monteliusvägen trail at dusk and check into a top-notch spa for a couples massage to round off the most perfect of holidays.

"The booking was very easy, and communication was great from start to finish. The staff at Sorbyn Lodge were all very friendly and really helpful, and the private activities were all amazing, with very knowledgeable guides who were very proud to live and work there. We felt we saw the real Swedish Lapland, and the trip was everything we were hoping it would be."

"Valeria and Margarita were very friendly and helpful, responding quickly to any queries we had. Having a Concierge during a trip was not something we had previously experienced, but we found it provided reassurance that help was available if needed. We use Gatwick airport quite a lot, but your service meant we had the smoothest of passages through the system. Brilliant. We particularly enjoyed the guided tours in Gothenburg and Stockholm. The guides were very friendly, knowledgeable and entertaining."
