We have a new Blog about Scandinavia and our insider's view with our custom travel and tours. Please continue to follow our blog posting on our new blog Insider's Scandinavia - Great Places to Go and Things to do!
As you can see from Laurie’s reflections below, she wins the hotel review prize hands-down. Not only was she the only one to submit her accolades for her favorite hotel – none of our travel specialists can really top having their wedding reception in the historic Kvikne’s!
In reality, with the booking season upon us, our crew is busy planning trips and pleasing clientele. They haven’t had time to contribute their hotel reviews to the blog. No worries, however, as there is plenty about Scandinavia that warrants conversation and the blog must go on! We’ll return to hotel highlights once the summer rush has calmed and our staff has a chance to catch a breath of air. Thanks for your patience.
With the phones now keeping a steady chorus around the office, I thought it might be appropriate to address the two questions that our prospective clients typically propose to us:
“Why The Nordic Company?” and “Why Scandinavia?”
Firstly, it is our sincere hope that you can understand “why the Nordic Company” from the minute we pick up your call. As Midwesterners, we take to heart our reputation for friendliness and down-to-earth rapport. We look beyond business in order to form friendships that exemplify the level of trust needed to plan your dream vacation. We want you to feel comfortable expressing your every travel request and asking every question that comes to mind. We are here to assist everyone, from the beginning traveler to the wanderlusts who make a living out of seeing the world.
Beyond our appeal as that extra touch of sincerity in an otherwise corporate world, we also do not charge upfront itinerary fees. Most major tour operators these days will not spend time even devising an initial draft of an itinerary unless they know they will be paid upfront for their services. Here again, we extend our unique level of trust. The Nordic Company believes that if we come to you first as friends and then as business partners, you are more inclined to use our services. We will work on several drafts as needed for a customized itinerary until we find what best suits your travel ideas and encompasses the magnificence of Scandinavia - all before we ask for a deposit.
Admittedly, the time invested can sometimes be painstaking, but the rewards are always fruitful. We love using our knowledge and travel savvy to expose people to new and exciting corners of the world. We recognize that we are promoting a global perspective and introducing people to the enriching Scandinavian culture. Most importantly, we know that we are instrumental in creating memories that last a lifetime and really, at the end of the day, that’s what life’s about: Memories.
Next blog, I will answer “Why Scandinavia?” Why do you suddenly find yourself cruising the mighty Sognefjord without a care in the world? Why do our clients stand atop the colossal Holmenkollen Ski Jump and bemoan the fact that they weren’t born in Oslo? Why do we send hundreds of clients to Scandinavia year after year? The truth will surprise and delight you, I promise.
