“…You developed a wonderful programme which completely fulfilled the brief of showcasing highlights of the destination. As well as developing creative elements across the whole programme, both you and your team were very good listeners, responding positively to every suggestion and request with a great “can do” attitude – whilst still keeping us realistic. Just what you need from a brilliant DMC! I would be very happy indeed to recommend DMC Sweden to any organizer who requires a creative partner and superior service.” MICE Forum, 2019

“Sweden was better than I’d ever imagined. Everyone in the group had a great time thank you. DMC Sweden provided high quality, consistent information and correspondence in the months leading up to our event. All questions were answered diligently, and travel deviation requests were executed accurately. On the ground, the office staff were well prepared and welcoming of our tour leaders which facilitated a smooth welcome to Sweden. All the operators and guides were fantastic.

Sweden is a Scandinavian country in Northern Europe, border lines with Norway and Finland, and is connected to Denmark by a bridge-tunnel across the Øresund. Less than three per cent of Sweden’s land area is built up and forests cover 69 per cent of the country. Sweden is long – some 1,574 kilometres from top to bottom – and can be divided into three major regions: Götaland in the south, Svealand in the middle and Norrland in the north.
