Step into Sweden's elegant past on this enchanting tour combining natural beauty, architectural grandeur, and cultural charm.
Begin with a scenic drive to Fjärås Bräcka — a striking 25-mile glacial ridge offering breathtaking views over Lake Lygnern. Formed more than 12,000 years ago, this geological formation is one of Sweden's most impressive natural landmarks.
Continue to the Tjolöholm Castle estate, set on a peninsula just south of Gothenburg. Built between 1898 and 1904, this magnificent manor blends Tudor-style exteriors with an Art Nouveau interior, reflecting the influence of designer William Morris. A marvel of its time, the house boasted advanced comforts such as piped hot-air heating, sunken bathtubs, and even a horse-drawn vacuum system.
Conclude your visit in royal style with a traditional afternoon tea in the castle's grand dining room, accompanied by live music — perhaps the perfect finale to a day steeped in history and beauty.
