About
This fast-paced program will take students through four cities and many beautiful towns and rural landscapes in Denmark, Sweden, and Iceland. We’ll explore Scandinavia’s varied historic and archaeological past, beginning with five-days in Aarhus, Denmark. From there, we’ll ferry to Gothenburg, Sweden for a three day stay. From there, we train it down the Swedish coast and cross the Øresund to arrive in Copenhagen, Denmark. After ten experience-rich days in Denmark’s capital city, we’ll fly to Reykjavik, Iceland for the program’s final three nights. Along the way, we’ll sail a Viking ship, visit an ancient burial ground, explore state-of-the-art museums, climb church towers, tour castles and fortresses, stroll through botanical gardens, gape at Baltic-sea beauty, and marvel at geysers.
