“We had a disappointing experience on our visit to Copenhagen yesterday using the 24 hour card. Unless you plan on visiting 4-5 attractions you will be out of pocket! We had planned to use it for Tivoli entrance, The round tower, A canal cruise & The Church of our Saviour. Unfortunately, the round tower is no longer included and so we had to pay (as of April 1st 2024). Tivoli Gardens was closed, on a sunny Saturday in September?! We then got to the Church of our saviour to find there was a 2 hour wait. We were gutted by this as our time in Copenhagen was short. These inconveniences…”

Walk Copenhagen’s historic center from Gammel Strand to Amalienborg with guides such as Thor, Roger, Steen, and Magnus. Expect Christiansborg, Nyhavn, the Royal Theatre, and royal palaces, plus Danish history, Hans Christian Andersen, practical tips, and jokes that can cross the line.

“The tour was enchanting. Our guide Roger was very artistic, with a theatrical touch and a very balanced, intelligent and quick humor, and really funny. It's easy to listen to so many facts about the history and life of the city and Denmark like this. In addition, the cool atmosphere they create makes it easy to meet other travelers and mingle. I would eliminate the easy joke about the Catholic Church and pedophilia only because there may be people affected by it on the tour and it can be very painful to relive it, besides being an unfair comment to the rest of Catholics who have fought against this.
