1.The Forest Tower and Forgotten Giants-A day tour from Copenhagen

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 162 reviews · 5 to 6 hours (approx.) · from $134Our pick

Ride from central Copenhagen to Camp Adventure, walk through the forest to the 45-meter Forest Tower, and enjoy treetop views over southern Zealand. After lunch, visit Thomas Dambo’s Hill Top Trine and Sleeping Louis. The air-conditioned minibus, guide, WiFi, and return ride are included, but tower admission is extra.

“We had such a wonderful time on this excursion. So nice to get away from the city and experience something different. The forest tower and the surrounding area is beautiful - even in the falling snow. The forgotten giants was also a really cool thing to experience - we will definitely try to see more of them in other places. Definitely recommend this experience when visiting Copenhagen.”

Leave Copenhagen by e-bike with guides such as Tamas, Thomas, Daniel, or Sam, then follow quiet streets, bike trails, forests, and fields to four Thomas Dambo sculptures. The 3.5-hour private ride includes the bike, helmet, water, photo stops, and help with Danish cycling rules.

“Tomas was an amazing guide-very personable and knowledgeable. I enjoyed learning about the giants and Danish culture. The giants are amazing and are unforgettable, seeing them was a major highlight of my time here. The tour is 30-miles long and starts and ends in a suburb (city traffic cycling). Beyond the city streets, most of it's on cycling trails, but about 15% was cycling on loose gravel paths, dirt paths and a couple shortcuts across fields. In my opinion, doing 30 miles/3 hours on a bicyle seat, including several miles of bumpy riding, should only be attempted by those accustomed to regular bicycling back home. In order to complete the…”

Join a small group of up to eight for a four-hour minibus hunt for Thomas Dambo’s six wooden giants west of Copenhagen. Guide and owner Vinod drives you from troll to troll, sharing their stories while you walk through parks, lakes, woods, and open countryside. Bring water, sunscreen, and sturdy shoes.

“This tour is a great little getaway. None of the walking is terribly difficult (there is only one that is on a hill that might be challenging during inclement weather). It is nicely paced as there is a 5-10 drive between most of them. At no point are you rushed through each giant. Overall, highly reccomend.”
