Your local host brings the city to life with stories that mix history, humor, and everyday culture. You’ll see iconic landmarks like the Round Tower and Rosenborg Castle, but also quiet courtyards, cobblestone lanes, and secret corners that most visitors miss.

What To Expect
Frederiks Kirke (Marmorkirken)
Discover one of Copenhagen's most iconic landmarks, the Marble Church, known for its impressive dome – the largest in Scandinavia. Inspired by St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome, this architectural gem took over 150 years to complete and features stunning Norwegian marble and intricate details. A must-see for lovers of architecture and culture!
Nyboders Mindestuer
Peer through the windows of Nyboder’s Memorial Rooms, a hidden gem in Copenhagen’s historic Nyboder district, originally established in 1631 by King Christian IV. These small, preserved museum spaces offer a rare glimpse into the everyday lives of Danish naval families over the centuries. Spot original artifacts, uniforms, and traces of maritime history, making this a fascinating stop for curious travelers and history enthusiasts alike!

5.00We walked around Old Copenhagen at a leisurely pace, while our guide and his photographer pointed out old buildings and statues and told us about their history, as well as the history of Denmark over the centuries. It was obvious that our guide and his photographer love Copenhagen and want their tour guests to love it as well. Mission accomplished.CopC
