In most of our travels we've either purchased bottled water at one of the many stops, or purchased bottles of water on the Rick Steves bus (bus driver). Saves having to carry a heavy water bottle, not knowing where we can fill it and if the water is good/safe to drink. We are going on the 14 day RS tour of Scandinavia in September 2024. I've read that in Sweden (not necessarily in Norway or Denmark) the following:
"It’s not only that many Swedes don’t really like buying bottled water but there are also not many options in the supermarkets. The bottled water is often at least sparkling if not artificially sweetened. And it is also quite expensive, especially since the quality of tap water at home tends to be higher than bottled water."
I would like some feedback if the above is true, and maybe we should consider bringing our refillable water bottles. Thanks!
