“We 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”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 4 reviews · from $249

Meet a private licensed guide near Copenhagen’s Round Tower for a walk through the Old Town Latin Quarter, a climb up the tower’s unusual spiral ramp, and optional entry to Rosenborg Castle. Choose a 2 to 5-hour plan, with private transfers and reserved castle entry in selected options.

“Worth a visit and included on the Copenhagen card. To go up the tower you climb a round slope which is quite easy but long. The final part is made of steps controlled by a traffic light system which works well. The views at the top are fantastic and can see 360 views of Copenhagen. Would be lovely on a warm day as was freezing !!”
