Amagertorv, today part of the Strøget pedestrian zone, is often described as the most central square in central Copenhagen, Denmark. Second only to Gammeltorv, it is also one of the oldest, taking its name from the Amager farmers who in the Middle Ages came into town to sell their produce at the site.
Amalienborg Palace is a must for anyone with a taste for royal history and the life of Denmark’s royal family who still resides inside the palace.
The Round Tower The 17th century tower and observatory Rundetaarn, or the round tower, is the oldest functioning observatory in Europe. When Christian IV built the tower, Denmark was quite famous for its astronomical achievements thanks to the astronomer Tycho Brahe. When he died in 1601, the King wished to continue Brahe's research, and thus the round tower came into being. It has been a while since the scientists left, but the observatory is still used by amateur astronomers and the many visitors. The observatory is encircled by an outdoor platform from which you have a magnificent view of the old part of Copenhagen.
Christiansborg Palace is a palace and government building on the islet of Slotsholmen in central Copenhagen, Denmark. It is the seat of the Danish Parliament, the Danish Prime Minister's Office, and the Supreme Court of Denmark.
The Copenhagen Cathedral in its present shape is an unpretentious building in Neo-Classicist style designed by the architect C.F. Hansen. The foundation stone was laid by King Frederik VI in 1817, and the solemn consecration took place on Whitsunday 1829. However, the site of the present cathedral has housed a church ever since Bishop Absalon, the founder of Copenhagen, had a small chapel built on the premises. The original church was erected at the highest point in the town around 1200.
From distance - Tivoli, also known as Tivoli Gardens, is an amusement park and pleasure garden in Copenhagen, Denmark. The park opened on 15 August 1843 and is the second-oldest operating amusement park in the world, after Dyrehavsbakken in nearby Klampenborg, also in Denmark

This was an amazing tour that showcased a lot of highlights in Denmark. Our tour guide Alex was amazing with so much information and always willing to answer questions.
Aasa was a brilliant tour guide. Super friendly and informative. She kept it comfortable and fun despite the rainy conditions. Learned a ton about the city and so appreciative for her deep food/cultural recommendations. One of the best in the business!
We thoroughly enjoyed this tour and highly recommend it. Our guide Michael was very knowledgeable and engaging. We got useful tips on other places to visit during our stay in Copenhagen.
Marcus was an amazing tour guide; he was a wealth of knowledge, and we came away knowing so much about the city’s history, culture, and culinary highlights.
Jose was very knowledgeable, and at the same time personable and humorous. Showed us a great variety of architecture and history of Copenhagen.
I really enjoyed this city tour through Copenhagen. It was a great way to get an overview of the city and also get a real feel for its atmosphere and character. We saw many of the most important landmarks, and the route was well thought out, combining the main highlights with a few more hidden spots. One of the highlights for me was the Royal Library Garden, which felt like a peaceful little escape in the middle of the city. The small group size of around 10 people was especially pleasant, as it created a very relaxed atmosphere and a great sense of connection within the group. The three hours were very well used, and the pacing was comfortable, with enough time at each stop without ever feeling rushed. Our guide, Karoline, was absolutely fantastic throughout the tour. She was very knowledgeable, answered all questions with patience and clarity, and really took the time for every single participant. It never felt rushed or impersonal, and she made sure everyone felt included and comfortable at all times. Overall, a very well-organized and highly enjoyable tour that I would definitely recommend.
Aasa was a fantastic tour guide. Knowledgeable and pleasant :) would definitely recommend taking a tour with her!
Fantastic way to see the city. Dan clearly knows the city well and brought a good energy to the tour experience. We got a nice introduction to most of the city’s highlights and made notes of places we want to explore further. This would be great to do on your first full day in Copenhagen.
Our guide, Aasa, was excellent. Very informative and gave great tips, fun to talk to and spend an afternoon with. We loved her and she made it a wonderful experience.
We had an amazing tour with Aasavsri. She was so knowledgeable and the three hours passed quickly. She had tons of suggestions on where to shop, eat, visit, etc for the other days we are here. Definitely need to take this tour and see so many locations in Copenhagen
