Amazing trip to some stunning places

We travelled with our guide Sillas to see Roskilde Cathedral, the Viking Museum as well as Frederiksborg and Kronborg Castles. Each destination was amazing to see, though it felt we could easily have spent longer to properly absorb everything. Sillas as a guide was exceptional. He was knowledgeable, very friendly and accomodating. He clearly explained the plan at each location and gave some flexibility for those who wanted to wander on their own. Plus he had a wicked sense of humour! Thanks for a great day out Sillas and team.
Sillas was very good

Sillas did a great job today. Keep going as you are. I am a fan of Hamlet, so it was particularly interesting as well as seeing all the other historic palaces.
Our tour guide, Sillas...

From Vikings to Royalty — A Day Well Spent

This day trip was such a highlight! We visited the Viking Museum, beautiful palaces, and the royal cathedral just outside Copenhagen — a perfect way to see more of Denmark beyond the city. The pace was well-planned with both guided storytelling and free time to explore. Our guide was fantastic, sharing engaging insights about Danish life, history, and the royal family. The comfortable van and small group size made travelling easy and enjoyable. Highly recommended!
