Copenhagen Food Tour

Explore Copenhagen on a food tour and learn about the Nordic country’s burgeoning cuisine and restaurant scene! Discover produce as fresh as the Scandinavian air and scout out the locals’ favorite eateries and market halls with an expert guide at your side. Food samples change according to season, but the tour includes enough treats to comprise a full meal, with delicacies like artisan cheese, organic ice cream, home-brewed beer, open rye-bread sandwiches and more. After meeting your guide near Frederiksborggade in central Copenhagen, stroll around the city to learn about Danish cuisine and its gastronomic heritage. Throughout the past few decades, Denmark gained quite a conservative reputation when it came to food. However, its cuisine is experiencing a food revolution and many Copenhagen restaurants are replacing the heavy dishes of bygone decades with meals cooked from seasonal, local ingredients that sing with clean and pared-down flavors. The best place to sample the new Nordic cuisine is, of course, in Copenhagen, so let your guide introduce you to the locals’ favorite eateries. The city’s burgeoning food scene is constantly evolving, so restaurants and delicatessens may be swapped on the day of your tour. Places mentioned are just intended to give you an idea of where you may visit. Start with a stroll to Torvehallerne covered market halls to see Arla Unika, Copenhagen’s flagship cheese shop. Sample artisan cheese, developed in collaboration with the city’s Michelin-starred chefs, and admire the pungent wares on offer before strolling to Bornholm Shop to try liquorice, caramels and preserves.
Wander through Copenhagen Botanical Gardens and stop for a sample of of Danish apple wine while relaxing in the beautiful green surroundings. Then, take a break in Aamanns café – a hotspot for locals enjoying hearty open sandwiches called smørrebrød made from sourdough rye bread and predominantly organic and free range produce. Continue to a nearby restaurant called Nørrebro Bryghus to sample three different types of home-brewed beer, and then soak up the alcohol with an organic hotdog sample from Copenhagen’s Ecological Hotdog Stand. Finish your tour at Summerbird Chocolate. Producing Copenhagen’s most luxurious chocolate and candy, the shop is also popular for its (highly addictive) flødeboller – chocolate-coated marshmallows. Having eaten your way around Copenhagen, return to the start point where your tour finishes.

Christiania Walking Tour

Christiania is one of Denmarks’s most popular attractions. Christiania was founded in 1971, when a group of people cut a hole in the fence to the military barracks in Bådmandsgade.

Today many of the original settlers still live in the collectively controlled village, and the area has a clear 70s feel to it.

Hi Daina,

I hope you are well. We had a lovely holiday in Denmark. Thanks again for arranging it all. We bought a Copenhagen card and used it on transport and museums and Tivoli Gardens and a canal ride. The weather was lovely most of the time too.

The hotels were fine. The hotel in Copenhagen was particularly quiet, although centrally located, which was lovely, and both hotels had a great choice at breakfast time. I particularly enjoyed the very dark bread. I don't eat much bread usually.

We didn't have much time in Aarhus and the weather was poor. As the trip from Stansted is so easy for us we intend to return there some time to see more..

Best wishes to you and I'm sure I'll be in touch again!

Dear Lena

We had a most wonderful weekend thank you. Flights were on time, the hotel excellent and the celebratory meal outstanding. Saturday was cloudless, ideal for the water cruise; Sunday was a bit wet but not bad enough to spoil things.

Many thanks for arranging it all.

Thank you for your e-mail, we had a really lovely time in Copenhagen. It is a beautiful City and the people are so friendly.

Everything went well, the hotel was first class, food, room and breakfast couldn’t have been better.  

The walking tour with Daniel was interesting and well worth doing. There were only two other people besides us which made it friendlier.

Our trip to Malmo was again interesting, we went on the canal trip, but not as nice as Copenhagen.

The last day that we had to ourselves, poured with rain, so after doing the necessary shopping we headed for the Carlsberg factory, which again was well worth a visit.

The only slight disappointment was when we arrived, the person that met us went to find a taxi, which isn’t a complaint, just feedback, because he was fine but I did worry that I had to pay because the meter was running.
The trip back to the airport again, the driver was 15-20mins late, which again worried me as I like to be at the airport in plenty of time. He said he had contacted the hotel but we weren’t informed despite sitting in the lobby area.

Denmark is a country that we would definitely visit again sometime.

Many thanks for contacting us and for arranging our holiday.

Kindest regards

Catherine

Thanks Daina for all your effort put in for our short break in Copenhagen. Thanks also for the train times and ensuring that we didnt get wet in Sweden. The Hotel was first class and in such a central place to be.  The hotel staff were first class and we can only thank you for all the work you did.

Hi Lena,

Thank you for your email and for arranging our trip to Denmark. We thoroughly enjoyed Copenhagen and would go again. It must be said that it was eye-wateringly expensive at times but this was mitigated by the inclusion of the CPH card which we put to good use. We visited various museums, the palace, theme park, design museum, botanical gardens and we also got the bus to Dragor fishing village. THE CPH card is really worthwhile and easy and efficient to obtain at the airport with the voucher provided.

People were friendly and helpful and invariably spoke better English than the Dansk I had been learning for 3 months! That said I did get thanked for making the effort and at least half the time people appeared to understand me so it wasn’t wasted. I have found Danish quite difficult, pronunciation especially, but have decided to keep learning so if we go again it will be better.

Staff in the hotel were all friendly and helpful and the location was brilliant - about 3 minutes walk from Nyhavn so this is not a big deal. Oh yes and we had really good weather contrary to forecast (only rained at night!).

I am keen [photographer and took loads of photos but really wanted one decent shot of Nyhavn which I am really pleased to say that I got. I have attached a jpeg for you. We really liked Nyhavn and spent some time in restaurants and bars there.

In all it was great, it is very expensive but I think the nicest capital city we have been to.  Thank you once again for arranging it for us.

Kind regards,

Dear Clare

The holiday was a great success and the weather was pretty kind to us including at least one stunning day at both places. We were told that the weather during the previous few weeks had been dire so we were lucky. The transfers were very good with nice friendly drivers. I will let you have some further detail later.

Thanks again for all you have done

Love Donald.

Lena,

Many, many thanks for organising a wonderful holiday for us to Copenhagen and the Faroe Islands. Copenhagen was warm and sunny and we walked miles looking at all the sites. The hotel was very comfortable and having a west facing balcony made the evening gin and tonic very pleasant. The highlight for me was climbing the spire of The Church of our Saviour, (not quite all the 400 steps), but The Tivoli Gardens, Little Mermaid, Kastellet, Nyhavn and all the churches and gardens in between were equally worth visiting

The Faroe Islands are totally fascinating. The geology makes for a stunning landscape (when the sea fog allows!) but there are enough things to see at low levels, however when the fog rises the views are just stunning. Although seeing the Puffins on Mykines was high on the bucket list visits to places like St Magnus Cathedral - medieval cathedral in Kirkjubour, the various ports etc are similarly worthy.

I've put a couple of photos on but once I've completed the holiday review I'll send you a copy.

Hi Lena

My clients have just returned from their Trip.

They took the Cruise from Copenhagen to New York after their stay in Copenhagen with you and then stayed

2 weeks in New York after the Cruise

They loved the Copenhagen City Break – loved the older quaint Hotel – great location and good breakfasts.

They loved the Copenhagen Visitor Card  and got lots of use from it .

All of the services went very smoothly for the 4 of them.

Thanks again for all you help.

My wife and I arrived home last night from our six night holiday in Copenhagen. We would just like to thank you for organizing a wonderful trip. Everything went as planned; the flights and the First Hotel Mayfair were all very good. The hotel was only a five minute walk from Central Station and they looked after us very well. The Copenhagen Card was terrific for our travelling around the city and entry into so many attractions including the Tivoli Gardens. We also used our card to travel to Helsingor in the train and visited the castle there. Our trip to Malmo over the bridge was also very good.

Thankyou once again; we will recommend you to our friends and hope to use your company again.

Dear Laura.

A belated reply.

We really enjoyed our holiday in Copenhagen. It’s a very civilised place - better than England.

You can drink the water straight out of the taps with no taste of chlorine; the numerous cyclists are polite and wait for you; the metro is being extended and Denmark will soon be petrol and diesel free; workers earn £15 to £20 per hour, and although they pay heavy taxes the  Government looks after the people unlike us!

We went everywhere, Christiania included and were amazed at Denmark’s progress.

No photos though.

Car Rental

You can rent a car, as long as you have a valid EU or international driver's license. Most cars will have manual transmission.

Transportation

Railway mostly serves domestic routes and is used as an easy and quick way to get from the capital to major cities of the country. There are some international routes, like to Moscow and St. Petersburg, but time spent on the way will be quite long.

Buses are one of the most convenient ways to travel between the Baltic States. Eurolines will get you between Riga, Vilnius and Tallinn. One way tickets will cost £ 15 - £ 20 and approximate travel time is 5 hours between the cities. Ticket reservations in advance are recommended.

Taxis are the quickest and most convenient way of travelling round the city. You'll find them located close to the main hotels. Usually it's quite easy to catch a taxi on the street, however, it's much better and safer to order one by phone. Taxi costs in all of the Baltic countries and Poland are approximately the same and a ride in the centre of the city will cost you approx £ 5 - £ 7.  Taxis in Finland and Russia are considerably more expensive.  It is always a good idea to get your hotel to book a taxi for you and ask approximately how much the trip will cost before you get in.

We would not recommend you to take public transportation within the city, as it's usually crowded and it may cause you unnecessary anxiety about where to stop.
