Itinerary
3 Nights – Copenhagen
3 Nights – Stockholm
3 Nights – Oslo
✈️ UK to Copenhagen (3 nights): You’ll start your journey in the Danish capital of Copenhagen – widely deemed as one of the top foodie destinations in Europe. The city boasts two of the world’s best restaurants: Geranium, perched on the eighth floor with stunning park views and locally inspired tasting menus. And Noma, with its legendary focus on foraged Nordic ingredients such as wild herbs, seaweed, and berries. Beyond these Michelin gems, Copenhagen’s food culture is fresh and varied. Stroll along the colourful waterfront of Nyhavn for classic Danish smørrebrød or visit the Torvehallerne food market to sample fresh seafood, artisan cheeses, and freshly baked pastries. For a trendy night out, explore the lively Meatpacking District (Kødbyen), where you’ll find innovative restaurants and bars in a modern industrial setting. And for a late-night snack, enjoy Danish street food including hot dogs topped with crispy onions and pickles in Vesterbro. For a more laid-back vibe, the canal-side cafes and restaurants of Christianshavn offer the perfect setting to soak up the relaxed atmosphere.
✈️ Copenhagen to Stockholm (3 nights): Next you’ll take a short flight to Stockholm, the beautiful capital of Sweden. One of the most enjoyable ways to explore the city is through its food. From cafés and busy food halls to high-end restaurants, you’ll find a delicious mix of flavours. Swedish staples such as tender meatballs, fresh gravlax, and open-faced sandwiches are easy to find, but no visit is complete without experiencing fika. It’s a daily ritual where locals slow down for coffee and a sweet treat, something along the lines of a cinnamon or cardamom bun. It’s a small moment of mindfulness accompanied by something delicious. One of the most iconic places to enjoy fika is at Vete-Katten in Norrmalm, a Stockholm institution since it opened its doors in 1928.
For cool cafes and independent bakeries, head to the bohemian Södermalm, where you can also enjoy scenic views from Monteliusvägen and the nearby historic streets of Gamla Stan (the Old Town), where you can also visit the Royal Palace. For a taste of Stockholm’s market scene, explore Östermalms Saluhall or Hötorgshallen, ideal spots to sample everything from cured salmon to artisanal cheeses and fresh bread. If you’re after something heartier, grab a beer and some classic Swedish food at Pelikan, a traditional beer hall in Södermalm with an olde-worlde atmosphere. For something more refined, Stockholm boasts several acclaimed Michelin-starred restaurants that push the boundaries of New Nordic cuisine.
✈️ Stockholm to Oslo: For the final leg of your Scandinavian adventure, you’ll hop back on the plane to head for the Norwegian capital of Oslo. Tucked between fjords and forests, Oslo’s city centre may be compact, but it’s a true playground for food lovers and very walkable. A great place to start is the Grünerløkka. Here you’ll find everything from award-winning bakeries and microbreweries to vintage shops and a never-ending lineup of cafés and bars. Grab a craft IPA at Grünerløkka Brygghus or head to Tim Wendelboe, an espresso haven run by one of the world’s best baristas. Aker Brygge’s waterfront is also a lovely spot to eat, with a lively atmosphere, plenty of outdoor seating, stunning views over the Oslo fjord, and a wide range of restaurants, from fresh seafood and classic Norwegian cuisine to trendy bistros. Oslo’s food halls offer plenty of variety too: Mathallen is the go-to for Nordic delicacies and international small plates, Maschmanns Foodmarket offers up deli treats such as smoked salmon and fine chocolates, while Vippa’s waterfront food trucks serve up global street food against the backdrop of the fjord. For something a little more special, book a table at Maaemo, Oslo’s three-Michelin-starred restaurant where Nordic cuisine is innovatively celebrated using local, organic ingredients.
But Oslo isn’t just about food. The city is also packed with incredible architecture and culture. The Oslo Opera House, inspired by a glistening iceberg, sits on the waterfront and offers fabulous views from its marble roof. And art lovers will want to visit MUNCH, a striking museum that houses the world’s largest Edvard Munch collection, complete with a rooftop restaurant.
✈️ Oslo to UK: Having experienced the best food and drink in your hat-trick of Scandinavian cities, you’ll head back to the UK.

We contacted eShores having visited the website to discuss a tailor made holiday to the Sporades islands. We spoke to one of the Travel Consultants, Kadie Ryan, who was friendly, efficient and knowledgeable. We received a quote shortly following our conversation and with Kadie's help were able to book our holiday with ease the next day. We are very happy with our experience booking this holiday.

Fantastic Holiday. Just returned from a great South African holiday, Cape Town 3 nights, Pilanesberg Safari 3 nights and a week in Zanzibar. Big thanks to Chris again, his knowledge helped organise and plan this vacation. This is the second long haul holiday he has booked for us. Each holiday has been faultless even though we have changed the itinerary to suit . The Safari he recommended on this trip, Ivory Tree in Pilanesberg was 5 STAR and made the holiday, another tick on the bucket list. Eshores customer service is second to none. I recommended this company to my daughter who is presently on a Canadian fly drive with them and is thoroughly enjoying it. Based on previous experience Chris has now helped us book Australia, Hong Kong & Dubai for next February, can’t wait. All their trips are good value for money, would not have any hesitation in recommending them.

Very happy with what we booked, ( we asked for a trip/experience to Egypt), and Rachel put something together and within the budget we asked for. Once we reviewed it, we tweaked it several times for what we wanted in parts and Rachel did the rest. Very personable and pleasant to deal with. I think we will be looking at other experience holidays through E Shore in the future rather than your standard package holiday.

Booked with eshores last year. Holiday was excellent and everything ran smoothly. We had one problem with one of the transfers in which we missed the plane and had to pay for the next flight but that was sorted and refunded when we returned home. Booked with them again for next year. Matt has been extremely helpful (and patient. We are a nightmare). Eshores are very competetive and I would not hesitate in recommending them and I hope to be using them for years to come.
