Pros
- the islands near Gothenburg are very accessible, you can buy the cheapest transit pass (zone A, i think), and take a tram to ferries that will take you to all these charming islands. it's great
- Me and my friend drove from The Netherlands->Copenhagen->Gothenburg->Oslo->Bergen->Trondheim->Tornio->Oulu->Turku->Helsinki->Tallinn->Riga->Kaunas->Warsaw->The Netherlands in 13 days.
- I enjoyed Gothenburg more than Oslo- once I visited the Munch museum and the floating saunas I was just kind of like 'OK'.
- If you want to stay in Sweden, take the train to Gothenburg. The archipelago there is incredible for walking, and it's the seafood capital of the country.
- If you want something quiter, Gothenburg in Sweden is also a nice option with great seafood and a relaxed vibe.
Cons
- You can visit Gothenburg but Stockholm is too big of a stretch and you would need to sacrifice northern Norway.
- Skip Gothenburg and Skagen entirely
- Gothenburg and Milan are naturally very different in terms of size and not really comparable in that sense. It’s more a question if you lean more towards a smaller city + nature or a just a big city.

Sweden also has such beautiful nature to offer, the coast near Gotheborg and Stockholm is also worth exploring.
