Overview

A three hour walking tour in the city center.

I am native Danish and have lived 25 years in Copenhagen.

We will see the medieval city, Rosenborg, Amalienborg, Christiansborg and Nyhavn (pretty canal).

Copenhagen is more than the capital of cosy hygge, it's also a vibrant city of trade and innovation with lots of space for work/life balance, soft urban design and a welfare state that aids every dane from cradle to grave.

Follow in the footsteps of Hans Christian Andersen, whose dream nearly failed before it started, and find out if his own life really was a fairy tale and see where he lived.

I've been a tour guide for ten years working for tourism companies. Now I also work independently.
