Free Grand Tour of Copenhagen
FREETOUR.com says
Our Secret Traveller enjoyed this free walking tour of Copenhagen, hailing it "a wonderful introduction to the Danish capital and its vast history". "This was a splendid three hours with a nice sized group and excellent local guide who delivered fascinating information in an entertaining and engaging style, filling us in on Vikings, medieval times, the founder of the city, and the legacy of Copenhagen right up to present day. The sights and sites were fascinating, including the Town Hall Square, Lur Blowers, the Tivoli Gardens, the Old Royal Theatre, the Marble Church, Strøget shopping street and much more as well as the laid-back and colourful harbourfront of Nyhavn" A must-do when in Copenhagen!"
Overview of the tour in Copenhagen
Copenhagen has a rich history as a major city on the edge of the Baltic. It grew from a little fishing town to the capital of Denmark, and survived fire, plague, invasion, and just about everything in between.
Now Copenhagen is known as a culture capital, a hub for design and experimentation, a place for foodies, and a land of fairy tales. Join our Grand Tour to hear how Copenhagen became the fantastic city it is today. Learn about warrior bishops, kings, and queens, the best place to get Danish smørrebrød, and why the Danes are called the happiest people in the world!
