Evening Wildlife Safari from Stockholm

Our guide Katarina was very knowledgeable and engaging and have us a great taste of Swedish midsummer celebrations as well as the landscape and wildlife that lives in it. We saw moose, hare, some birds of prey and many deer.

Calling this a “wildlife safari” is quite a stretch. We saw a few deer, a lone hare, and some livestock on a farm, aIl with the aid of binoculars. Don’t expect to see a moose; our tour guide never has. While I don’t have moose in my backyard in New Jersey, I see a greater quantity and variety of wildlife in my garden (all without the need for binoculars). Although spread out in a lovely setting on a weathered roadside picnic table (where you can use an outhouse if needed) the traditional Swedish meal that was provided can at best be called an evening snack. A stop at a lake on the way back to Stockholm was essentially pointless, absolutely nothing noteworthy here. Haven’t we all seen a lake before? While the tour guide was a lovely young woman, her knowledge of Swedish flora and fauna, and history and culture was somewhat lacking. This 4-hour tour is certainly not worth the $175.45 per person that we paid. Spend your time and money elsewhere.

Didn’t get to take the tour due to the bus/public transportation running late which made us 15 minutes late and they left without us. There was no contact from the tour operator prior to the tour and there was no contact number provided other than the main office which was closed due to this being an evening tour; therefore when we wanted to let them know we were running a few minutes late, there was no way to reach them. I asked for at least a partial refund since we did not get to go on the tour, but the tour operator refused to do even that and said it was completely non-refundable. Terrible customer service and communication!

This is a great tour and Jana is a great guide. Lovely scenery, delicious dinner, lots of animals to see and great city infirmation from Jana.

Great experience in a cool group with a TOP guide! We work here with great attention to detail to offer the travellers a great experience.

Great experience! The guide was a delight and very knowledgeable. We had a yummy dinner in a nice bush location and saw 2 moose and lots of deer which was a treat.

Nice trip, good friendly guide. Unfortunately no Elk seen but a lot of deer. Food was a little less if you don't like herring. It was nice that we were in a nice place in the open air.

Our guide was very good and certainly helped to keep the tour interesting. However, the overall tour was disappointing, the picnic had a poor selection of produce, mostly salted herring or variations thereof, together with boiled eggs and boiled potatoes and a small simple salad. Not a lot of effort for the price paid. The area was a 'nature reserve' but with quite an amount of development and farmland. All was viewed from a minibus and if something was spotted then we stopped and viewed from the side of the road. We did spot moose in the distance, some hare and buzzards. Disappointing. Normally such a tour involves a walk and one or two viewing hides.

From start to finish a great decision ! Nature, our guide and of course the animals! It was a great group and the time experienced there this time, I can recommend to everyone ! Always happy!

There was no real bathroom stops. They stopped at an old style out house and no light inside. It was totally dark inside. He stopped again at another out house later in the trip but again no light and both places had no way to wash your hands. They should have handed out wipes to clean your hands. Then we had a dinner that the guide brought but again no way to clean or disinfect your hands. Also it said safari but we only saw deer and a bunny. This was not worth the price they charged for this tour. I would not recommend it.
