Swedish 2025 FAM trip Oct 15 - 18

Visit Estonia welcomes the Swedish FAM group to West-Estonia!

Swedish 2025 FAM trip Oct 15 - 18

Visit Estonia is delighted to greet You in Estonia and call out to culture scouts, natural nomads and flavour seekers! A country where the social influencers are centuries old, where attitudes merge a Nordic mindset with medieval mystery, where the fast food comes as fast as it grows and where fewer crowds lead you to deeper conversations.

This time we set out to introduce our westcoast and potentially, from the group visit angle. The west is known for serene coastal sites, lots of Swedish heritage and as a lovely spa getaway. We hope that you will enjoy the discovery of the small town laid back atmosphere of Haapsalu, the taste of tiny cafes and the promise of various festivals. Below you will find your programme, details will be added along the way.

Tallink Silja Line is happy to provide you a cruise from Stockholm to Tallinn, along with meals (dinner and breakfast) and Visit Estonia - the return flights to Stockholm (or Copenhagen or Göteborg) - the schedules you will also find below.
