My wife and I wanted to visit all of Scandinavia this summer but we’re stuck with only 2 weeks on vacation so we have to stick to one country. Which is best to visit this time of the year and why?

To be honest I’m a huge fan of Sweden, but mosquito season is coming up and you really don’t want to visit during mosquito season.
Norway is also good, you can visit the fjords and enjoy the lovely sights. It’s the best time to do so, if you ask me.

I have never been at Sweden, but it’s that my wish, as have relatives there, I know have very good social life, some modern communism, mountains, good weather during summer…many to see especially at capitol Stockholm. That with mosquito season is good info, but when will go there will avoid it

Sweden is considered as the “capital” of Scandinavia and they are incredibly hospitable as a nation.
I’d say, Norway. It’s probably the most independent and the wealthiest country on the planet, inhabited with arguably the happiest people alive. So they say.
If you want to taste that happiness, you know the way…

I don’t know why, reading your suggestions just more like to visit NOKIA country especially to enjoy at their famous saunas.

Norway is definitely the best place. There is a whole lot you can learn from those guys as well. It’s an experience unlike any other.
If there is perfection in this world, Norway is the closest thing to it.

I’d say Sweden. I have a lot of friends living there and having some experience with Norway and Denmark, they all claim that Sweden is the nicest place in Europe.
It’s great, pretty much for the entire year. There’s always something interesting going on and you won’t stay home, regardless, whether it’s summer or winter.

Finland is such a cool country. These people are really nice! Such a great standard of living.
Finish winters are spectacular!
You’ll have a dream experience there, skiing and driving those snowmobiles and then, after you really feel the icy breath of the Finish winter, what’s best rather then relaxing in one of the best saunas in the world?
