Day 2 - Discover Copenhagen through a private walking tour
Copenhagen has become one of the world's gourmet capitals, offering everything from cosy pub-style eateries and cafes with great coffee to world-class local beer and Michelin-starred restaurants. The city is a delightful summer destination with numerous squares and patios where restaurants open up to the street. The pedestrian and bicycle-friendly city centre creates a peaceful and enjoyable atmosphere. At the small harbour inlet of Nyhavn, you can enjoy a meal at one of the harbour-side restaurants or buy a cold beer from a local shop and relax by the water. Don't miss climbing the tower of the Church of Our Savior for an aerial view of the city, though the spiral stairs on the outside are not for the faint-hearted!
This morning, meet your guide for a private tour of Copenhagen. In the afternoon, you can opt for a private culinary tour or a relaxing hot tub experience on the canal.
