Top Denmark Experiences

Denmark offers a rich tapestry of experiences, from exploring historic castles and modern cities to enjoying its beautiful coastlines and vibrant cultural scene. Each tour provides unique opportunities to delve into the country’s history, savor its cuisine, and experience the Danish way of life. Whether you're interested in outdoor adventures, cultural activities, or culinary delights, Denmark has something for everyone.

  • Enjoying a cycling tour passing scenic canals and streets, lush parks, and the Amalienborg Palace
  • Pedaling your way through South Jutland on the Baltic Sea Route, where you’ll witness some of Denmark’s most stunning and contrasting landscapes. You will be equally distanced from the North Sea and Baltic Sea, so you can easily explore both breathtaking regions
  • Climbing the Round Tower to witness some of the best views of Copenhagen
  • Sampling the fabulously fresh and innovative Nordic cuisine. Many restaurants provide sleek fur blankets and heated lamps for outdoor dining right through the chilly fall months
  • Exploring Jægersborggade Street in Nørrebro and Værnedamsvej Street in Vesterbro for shops, cafes, and restaurants showcasing the inspired Danish design
  • Hopping aboard a canal cruise tour to see the colorful sights of Nyhaven
  • Taking a bike tour around the unique Freetown Christiania to see Denmark's hippie enclave
  • Visiting the Louisiana Museum about one hour outside Copenhagen - an impressive modern art museum right on the coastline with gorgeous views, a sprawling sculpture garden, and a top-notch collection (Yayoi Kusama, Gioacommeti, Richard Serra)
  • Taking a journey through time on a guided tour of Kronborg (Hamlet’s castle)
  • Walking around Søerne (the lakes) in the sun and ending up at Queen Louise's Bridge with an impromptu picnic
  • Strolling the lakesides to enjoy marvelous views of the city and surrounding scenery. During summer, rent a rowing boat at the Søernes Bådudlejning (Copenhagen Lakes Boat Rentals), located near the Dronning Louises Bridge
  • Falling for Copenhagen's fairy-tale allure through the history of Hans Christian Andersen and a visit to the 19th-century Tivoli Gardens
  • Visiting the Viking Ship Museum in Roskilde
  • Exploring the beautiful Danish countryside
