Transportation / Walking on tour
Round-trip flights arrive in Copenhagen and depart from Helsinki. Included transportation on “Scandinavia: Capitals to the Fjords” is by a combination of overnight ferry and private motorcoach. In your free time, you may wish to explore the cities by public transportation and on foot.
Copenhagen’s flat landscape lends itself to walking, but the transportation system is also superb. A network of 10 S-train serves all the main attractions, connecting in Central Station. There is also a bus network called HT. Tickets are based on zones and are available in singles or in packages.
Oslo is easily accessible on foot. You may also take a combination of buses, subways, streetcars and ferries to break up periods of walking.
Stockholm is a model of efficiency. An extensive network of subway, train and bus lines are all run by the SL, which sells Tourist Cards for a designated period of time, valid on all transport. There is also the Stockholm Card, valid for all transport and entrance to most of the city’s main attractions. A similar system exists in Helsinki, on the HKL Transportation network.
