Sweden Package 7 Days 6 Nights

Six nights and seven days is enough for a focused Sweden holiday built around two bases. The classic split is three nights in Stockholm and three in Gothenburg (Göteborg), which covers the capital's old town, museums and island-hopping boats before you move to the more laid-back west coast. Some 6 night itineraries add Malmö in the south, and others replace the second city with Kiruna in Swedish Lapland for a winter trip.

With only two or three stops it is better to keep hotel changes to a minimum and use day trips, such as Uppsala or Drottningholm Palace from Stockholm. Visit between May and September for long days and pleasant temperatures. For the northern lights and snow activities in Kiruna, plan for the darker months from around late September to March instead.

Sweden is part of the Schengen area, so Indian travellers need a Schengen visa before departure. The embassy generally decides within about 15 working days, though it can take longer in busy months, so apply early. A 7 day trip works well for honeymooners, first-time visitors to Scandinavia and anyone combining Sweden with a short stop elsewhere in Europe.
