Travelsphere adds Stockholm & Copenhagen to 2027 escorted tour programme

Travelsphere says the new holidays, which cover mainland Europe and southern Africa, reflect the growing appetite it is seeing for “immersive, expertly guided experiences.” 

The itineraries feature two new destinations for the operator - Stockholm and Copenhagen. An eight-night Scandinavian Explorer tour includes visits to both cities, taking in some of the many attractions. 

The tours include: 

Winter in Switzerland

This features a journey on the GoldenPass Express to Montreaux; a Kleine Scheidegg visit by train from Grindelwald; visits to the Lauterbrunnen village, Maison Cailler for a chocolate-making workshop, and Gruyères for a traditional Swiss cheese fondue tasting; and a guided tour of the Château de Chillon with wine tasting. Departs 25th January 2027 for six nights. 

Exploring Crete – Chania & the White Mountains

This seven-night holiday in June next year includes guided tours of the ancient city of Aptera; Chania including its Venetian harbour; the White Mountains; and Gonia Monastery. A winery and olive mill visit with tasting are also available.

Scandinavia Explorer

Livingstone’s Africa - Victoria Falls, Botswana & Zimbabwe

The 11-night tour, which runs in March next year, is part of Travelsphere’s collection with the Royal Geographical Society (RGS), featuring expert-led insights.

It includes game drives in Chobe National Park and Hwange National Park; river cruises on the Chobe and Zambezi; a vintage tram ride through Zambezi National Park to the Victoria Falls Bridge; and a guided tour of Victoria Falls including a David Livingstone talk.

All tours include return flights, overseas transfers, accommodation, select meals, and a holiday director and specialist local guides.

Kathy Farahat, Travelsphere product and operations director, said: “These new tours reflect the growing appetite we’re seeing for immersive, expertly guided experiences.

“Whether it’s travelling through Switzerland’s spectacular scenery, discovering Crete’s heritage, exploring Scandinavia’s vibrant capitals or sampling the wonderful wildlife of southern Africa, each itinerary combines must-see sights with the reassurance of our specialist holiday directors and guides.”
