Itinerary
Day 1 to 3 - Malmö & Copenhagen
Individual arrival in Malmö (you can fly to Copenhagen or Malmö). The construction of the Öresund Bridge has brought prosperity and diversity to Malmö and the Skåne region. As you cross the bridge towards Malmö you have an amazing view of Malmö and the Turning Torso, Sweden's tallest building. Many good shops, bars and restaurants line the pedestrianised areas and Simply Sweden recommends a visit to Lilla Torget and Saluhallen. The award winning area of the Western Harbour is also a must do, with sandy beaches and long promenade, restaurants and cosy cafes, complemented by a stunning view across the sea towards Copenhagen. You will be accommodated in one of Malmö's leading hotels, just a couple minutes walk from central station. Copenhagen is just a 30min train journey from Malmö.
Day 3 to 5 - Gothenburg
The train between Malmö and Gothenburg takes you along the stunning West Coast of Sweden and through picturesque towns and villages arriving in Gothenburg approximately 3 hours later.

All of Gothenburg's major attractions are within easy reach and you will have free transport on the famous trams and other local public transport as all guests will be provided with a 48 hour Gothenburg Pass. Simply Sweden recommends a city cruise on the Paddan tours and there a whole range of museums, attractions and activities to keep all ages and interests occupied.
