  • Description

    Once upon a time, a fishing town was founded on the edge of the Baltic sea. That fishing town grew into the capital of Denmark and the best place in the world to ride a bike, take a walk, eat smorrebrod and feel cozy - at least, we think so!

     Join our 2.5 hour Grand Tour to see Christiansborg, Nyhavn, Amalienborg and everywhere in between while we regale you with tales of Copenhagen’s history and its current place in the world. We have all the inside information on surviving bicycle culture, eating great food, keeping cozy despite the weather, and living like some of the happiest people in the world.
