Overview
Discover Copenhagen beyond the classic postcards: this free tour takes you to the heart of the city combining history, monuments and most importantly the Danish way of life. Starting from Gammel Strand, in the footsteps of Bishop Absalon, we will explore more than 800 years of history, from the birth of the merchant port to the modern capital.
We will stroll among half-timbered houses and historic streets, talking about the fires that transformed the city and introducing key concepts of Danish culture such as Hygge and Janteloven, which explain values such as equality, modesty, and a sense of community.
The tour continues among iconic places such as Christiansborg Palace, where we will understand the workings of the political system, welfare and the extraordinary level of social trust in Denmark. We will also talk about education, taxes, and daily life to understand what makes this country among the happiest in the world.
We will discover cultural figures such as Bertel Thorvaldsen and the contemporary architecture of the Black Diamond Library, a symbol of modern Copenhagen.
A perfect tour for those who want to not only see the city, but really understand it: its history, its society and its unique way of life.
