Even though we mentioned that Scandinavia is great for all-year-round travels, there are still some times we would recommend choosing over others. One thing to remember when planning a trip to Scandinavia is that this part of the world is especially rainy. Hence, we suggest going during the summer months and still bringing some warm clothes, even water-resistant ones would be a huge advantage. No tour to Scandinavia can be done without staying in a close proximity to the seaside, hence the weather is likely to be unpredictable, windy and (there's a chance) rainy. Oh, and while we're on a subject of what to pack for your trip to Norway or any other Scandinavian country, we need to mention the shoes! You will be walking (and sometimes even hiking) so make sure to pack the ones you have the most comfortable relationship with.Where can I see the Northern Lights in Scandinavia?
