| We invite you on “A Visit to Värmland.” This special
8-day tour explores the land, history and people of the province of Värmland, Sweden. Often described as the province of nature and culture, no other place in Sweden is so richly endowed with unspoiled landscape and historical and cultural traditions. Highlights include, family research at the Emigrant Registry, Sweden-American days
and an exciting reenactment of the battle of the ironclad ships Monitor and Merrimac. Based in the city of Karlstad you will be hosted by author and emigration scholar Alf Brorson. Space is limited to 16, call today to reserve!
