Summer Holidays

"This was the most incredible holiday we have ever done. We felt it soothed our souls, recharged us and left us so so refreshed. The support we received from the local hosts out there was second to none, we are already looking at similar trips for next year! I have been singing your praises to anyone who will listen and sending the info around. Thank you so so much. We really needed this break into nature."

Amy, Canoeing in Dalsland's Lake District, October 2024

"We loved every minute. We had a fantastic time, everything was wonderful and we will definitely be coming back, thank you. I have used Nature Travels before, the service is excellent."

Piers, Log Cabin Escape in Värmland, September 2024

"Pre-departure information provided was really thorough. The campsites were in fantastic locations and so well looked after. We've used Nature Travels before so know the quality of service to make for a successful holiday."

David, Canoeing on the Tar Route in Kainuu, August 2024

"We had a brilliant trip and all of the equipment worked perfectly. I particularly enjoyed staying in Flørli, it was spectacular and the 4,444 steps were a brilliant way to start the day! All of the kayaking was also incredible!"

Josie, Self-guided Kayaking in Lysefjord, September 2024

"Thanks for another great trip out to Sweden. A magical place. Looking forward to the next time!"

Mel, Canoeing in Dalsland's Lake District, September 2024

"The best part was camping on an island with nobody else on it and having the shelter and fire pit there already."

Kylie, Canoe Getaway in Skåne, September 2024

"You were very responsive and active in helping us book and the canoe centre were really helpful. It was beautiful to wake up and look out of the door of the tent at the lakes and islands. We went swimming every day when we had set up camp, and the water was really warm and full of fish! We saw Ospreys, evidence of beavers and a ringed seal. We had a great time, and are thinking of another canoe trip – maybe in Sweden next time."

Peter, Canoe or Kayak in Linnansaari and Kolovesi National Park, August 2024

"We had some excellent moments on our rafting tour - seeing a beaver swimming alongside the raft in the rain was definitely a highlight! We also had a beautiful early morning in the mist, cooking breakfast whilst gently floating down river as the sun rose - just magical. We had a great time - and as always we were really impressed with the level of information provided, the knowledge of the staff and the level of support available. We'll definitely be back for some more adventures in the future!" Sarah, August 2024

Sarah, Timber Rafting on Klarälven, August 2024

"We had a wonderful time. Thank you. Hard to pick a best part. We really loved it all. The hike was a highlight for me. Kids loved canoeing."

Faye, Hike, Bike and Paddle Stockholm's Lakes and Islands, August 2024

"We loved the tranquility and complete self-reliance. We've travelled with you before and we're very happy with the service."/p>

Rachel, Canoeing on the Tar Route in Kainuu, August 2024

"It was great! Thanks! The area is beautiful. The highlight was sunny relaxing and swimming, with no one else around when camping on one of the Ångerman river islands. Pre-departure service was perfect and Niki was super responsive to our emails. I appreciated that!"

Victor, Self-guided Kayaking on the Ångerman River, August 2024

"Another epic Sweden canoe adventure. The last of three father and son trips with the boys. Amazing memories and experiences. Just wanted to say thanks for the assistance with these trips. The first was in 2017, then 2023 then this last one in 2024. Three sons - three trips planned with you guys. Thanks for the memories."

Nathan, Canoeing in Dalsland's Lake District, August 2024

"We had a really wonderful experience and would have loved to stay out there even longer! The location was really beautiful, a wild landscape with amazing wildlife, berries and clean water. We really appreciated being somewhere remote, and being able to wild camp was a luxury."

Megan, Discover Wilderness Canoeing in Rogen, August 2024

"The whole trip was astonishingly worthwhile and the scenery was stunning. After a day on the water, we worked so well as a team to pitch our camp, set a fire and cook a delicious evening meal. There were no screens to distract us. It all felt so natural to work together to make the evenings so enjoyable. The final highlight came at our small island 'camp'. Some families go for a swim in their accommodation, but we swam around ours! That feeling of floating in that cool, smooth, black water will live with me forever."

Jim, Canoe Tours on Svartälven, August 2024

"I was very impressed with the service and responsiveness pre-departure. We absolutely loved the holiday. Unbelievable scenery, great family adventure, on-hand support from the team - would definitely recommend."

Hugo, Canoe Tours on Svartälven, August 2024

"We had an absolute blast. The local hosts at the kayak centre were very kind and helpful, and full of energy. Loved every bit of it."

Ruben, Self-guided Sea Kayaking in St.Anna and Gryt , August 2024

"Thank you a lot! We had a great time and enjoyed every bit of the canoeing tour! It was amazing – on the one hand due to the incredible Finnish nature and on the other hand thanks to your support. I really liked our communication before and the booking process, as you were really helpful and quick in answering our questions. We were all alone and could truly experience the Finnish nature and everything that makes it so special."

Hannah, Canoeing on the Tar Route in Kainuu, August 2024

"Everything was perfect."

Marc, Log Cabin Escape in Värmland, August 2024

"Nature Travels offered the self-guided canoe experience I was looking for at a reasonable price. We were travelling to Sweden by train, so it was great how it was made clear how to get there by public transport. We really liked how relaxed and friendly everyone at the canoe centre was. We were treated like adults."

Katherine, Canoe Getaway in Skåne, August 2024

"We enjoyed the tranquility of the experience and how relaxed the whole process was. We chose the tour because it looked well organised but still had the element of freedom for us when there."

Ceri, Canoe Getaway in Skåne, August 2024

"The hosts are wonderful and actively tried to make sure we enjoyed our stay. The hike was easy (I am 26...) and that was fine as I wanted to relax. The support from Nature Travels was great."

Valerio, Hiking in the National Parks of Eastern Finland, August 2024

"You offered the right experience for the ages of our kids, and the perfect amount of time, too. We enjoyed switching off and just enjoying nature, the freedom to explore in our canoe, and not to be restricted where we wanted to camp."

Rochelle, Canoeing in Dalsland's Lake District, August 2024

"The Stockholm kayak tour was fantastic - our guide was lovely, really cheery as well as being informative and interesting. We would have booked another trip."

Juliette, Canoeing on the Tar Route in Kainuu, July 2024

"There were many highlights - the contrast between urban and islands and variety of islands, the quality of service from the local hosts, the hostel on Svartsö (a good opportunity to meet other travellers) and the welcoming attitude of the locals."

Rob, Discover the Islands of the Stockholm Archipelago, July 2024

"We always find Nature Travels to be excellent, thank you. The remoteness and beauty of the location was the best part. We chose three nights camping followed by two nights in a cabin on Harstena, followed by another three nights camping. This format was perfect for us."

John and Jenny, Self-guided Sea Kayaking in St.Anna and Gryt , July 2024

"Everything you did was outstanding. You were so helpful, even with things not related to your trip but to the rest of the holiday, thank you so much. The local host was delightful, so friendly, helpful and accommodating. We were told everything we needed to know. It could not have been better organised, it all worked like clockwork. Thank you for providing such an excellent service. We would not hesitate to use you again if we go back to Scandinavia."

Danny, Timber Rafting on Klarälven, July 2024

"Very remote, beautiful landscape, outstanding experience for fishing and being outdoors. I chose Nature Travels because you were the first to appear on Google and made a good impression."

Paul, Canoe or Kayak in Linnansaari and Kolovesi National Park, June 2024

Caroline, Self-guided Sea Kayaking in the Stockholm Archipelago, May 2024

"Pre-departure service was simple, efficient and friendly. We were there in May for the bird breeding season. Evenings were spent watching a cabaret of seabirds in their hundreds wheeling, interacting and raising their young."

Dil, Self-guided Sea Kayaking in Bohuslän, May 2024

"Thank you so much for everything you did in helping us plan our trip. I simply cannot fault anything throughout the process, from my initial enquiry to completing the trip...the whole process is seamless, it was easy to book, and your personal knowledge and advice was invaluable.
