If you're looking to dive into adventure the second you step off the airplane in Stockholm, opt to travel with the Nature Travels cycling tour. Tour groups meet at the airport where they'll have their luggage transported to their first hostel location. Together, they'll bike to the hostel where they can enjoy a relaxing evening eating an authentic Swedish dinner. The next two days will take the group through --stergötland where groups can enjoy swimming, canoeing, fishing and other outdoor activities. The tour ends back at the airport, where the tour company conveniently drops you off in time for your flight back home.
