Sweden

Sweden is as much about its high-end urban culture as it is about its massive, untouched wilderness. At LaTrove, we focus on Sweden travel experiences that move beyond the standard city breaks. From navigating the thousands of islands in the Stockholm archipelago to tracking the Northern Lights from a remote luxury lodge, we take care of the details. We specialise in finding the right balance between contemporary Swedish culture and the absolute quiet of the north.

Unforgettable Experiences

Navigate the Stockholm Archipelago on a private charter, weaving through thousands of pine-fringed islands while dining on a lunch prepared by a private chef on deck.

Spend a night in the original ICEHOTEL, where every room is a unique art installation carved from Torne River ice.

Visit the historic glassworks of Småland for a private workshop with master blowers. Learn the techniques behind Swedish glass design and dine in a traditional 'Hyttsill' evening inside the glass factory.

Experience the Northern Lights at Abisko Sky Station, which sits in a unique "blue hole" microclimate that keeps the skies clear.

Top Regions To Visit

Stockholm

Built across 14 islands, the capital is the hub for Swedish design and gastronomy. If you are looking for the best places to visit in Stockholm, we focus on the more refined side of the city. This includes the medieval history of Gamla Stan, the maritime legacy of the Vasa Museum, and the quiet parklands of Djurgården.

Swedish Lapland

The northernmost reaches of the country offer a landscape of dramatic mountains and tundra. This is the premier region for winter activities.

Gothenburg & The West Coast

Known for a more laid-back atmosphere and incredible seafood, the west coast is defined by granite islands and historic fishing villages. It is the best region for coastal hiking, kayaking, and exploring the culinary scene.

Skåne

The southernmost region of Sweden, known for its rolling fields, historic castles, and the creative energy of Malmö. It’s a region of craft breweries, artisan farm shops, and coastal sophistication.

Season Guide

Winter (December – February): Cold and snowy, especially in the north. This is the peak season for Northern Lights tours and traditional markets.

Spring (March – May): Cool but brightening as the ice begins to break in the archipelagos.

Summer (June – August): Mild and pleasant with very long daylight hours. Ideal for sailing the islands and experiencing the midnight sun in the Arctic.

Autumn (September – November): Crisp air and colourful foliage. A quieter time to visit the southern cities and experience the start of the Aurora season in the north.
