Let's take you for a walk that covers all the historic highlights of Scandinavia's largest and most facinating city.

You will see the Royal Palace, parlament, Nyhavn and all the other world famous sights. You will learn the history of how Copenhagen was founded to protect trade routes, how it became the largest city in Scandinavia and how it works today.

Our guides are friendly, funny and knowledgeable locals that are fluent in English.

The walk is 3 kilometers (=1.8 US miles) and we pass by all the most important and interesting places in Copenhagen. When the walk is over you can either go back to your hotel. Or you can go for a canal tour and a drink in Nyhavn. Or walk to Rosenborg Palace to see the Crown Jewels. Whatever you want to do, the guide will suggest a route and provide you with a map so you can get the most out of your day also after the walk.
