Highly recommend this tour! It’s a self driven tour so you can spend as much time as you like wandering round. There’s so much to see and do, loads of interactive games and photo opportunities. The bar at the end is gorgeous too. Plus they have stables so you can visit horses there too. Really fun day out!

Really interesting tour of the home of Carlsberg. Lots to learn about the history and philanthropy of the family and their pursuit of the perfect beer. Self guided tour so you can take it at your own pace. Nice touch of a taste of lager at the start and a full glass at the end. Also a chance to meet the draught horses that still pull the beer wagons through the city. Good to walk up to the factory via the elephant gates.
