Holiday Idea

Enjoy a city-to-sea retreat in Gothenburg, the cultural heart of West Sweden and one of the most sustainable destinations in the world. Spend two nights exploring the city's rich history and varied architecture on canal-side strolls peppered with boutiques, bars and fine dining spots, before sailing out into the tranquil archipelago, to the picturesque island of Vrångö, for a further two nights in a delightful boathouse.
