Find HotelsIf you need to shorten the journey, consider consolidating the Greek islands (skip Milos) and reducing the Scandinavia leg to just Oslo, Copenhagen, and Stockholm. Conversely, you can extend the trip by adding a few extra days in Italy’s Amalfi Coast, a multi‑day trek in Norway’s Romsdalseggen, or a longer stay in Iceland to explore the Westfjords. Adjusting flight connections to include night legs can also free up additional daytime for sightseeing.
