Start your tour at the cruise harbor gates, where you will meet your English-speaking guide to begin your Copenhagen adventure. After a short, 15-minute ride on a public bus, you will arrive in the heart of the Old Town at King’s New Square. From here, you will discover the iconic New Harbour canal, famous for its vibrant medieval buildings and the many historic wooden boats that line the water.

Our journey continues through the Royal Square and the heart of the city along New Harbour Street. Enjoy a stroll along one of the world’s longest pedestrian areas, seeing medieval streets and landmark sites such as the Round Tower, the Gefion Fountain, and St. Nicholas Church. We will also walk past the Old Stock Exchange and the Parliament building, which capture the city's historic architecture.

After the walk, you will have free time for discovery on your own. You might choose to take in the viewing point on the Parliament Tower, enjoy a boat ride on the canals, or visit Town Hall Square and the Tivoli amusement park. You can also head over to see the famous Little Mermaid statue. When you are ready to return, you can easily arrive back at the port by taking Bus #26 from the Royal Square.

          Cobh/Cork: Blarney Castle, Kinsale & Cork City Shore Tour

          This was a fantastic experience! Beautiful drive, well planned tour, very nice bus. No regrets at all booking this independently instead of through the cruise line. We went the same places the cruise line excursions did and had a much better value!  ... Our tour guide was excellent as well! Highly recommend!
