    Eco-tourism in Sweden

    Nature’s Best tours, trips and active holidays are the best way to enjoy Sweden’s great outdoors responsibly and to benefit the environment you find yourself in, local business, local people and their culture. It’s pretty simple really; you should book your trip through one of their approved tour operators. The range of activities on offer is amazing; dog sledding in the Arctic Circle, timber-rafting inVärmland, oyster and lobster ‘safaris’ in West Sweden, sea kayaking and a host of others. We did say it was amazing. For example, you also could experience a sustainable shopping and the fell-good trip in Goteborg.
