Copenhagen Itinerary

My favourite city so far! Bike-friendly city much like Amsterdam, but with more splashes of colour and plenty of vegan/vegetarian options. Get a taste of Scandinavian designs, food, and architecture.

​

#QuickTips

Bike everywhere, it is the best way to see the city. The bus/metro takes 2x longer. Copenhagen is not cheap, to give you an idea, a 30 minute taxi ride will cost you 900 DKK (USD $135).

Sightseeing

1. Nyhavn - colourful houses and food district. Canal tour starts here.

2. Den Lille Havfrue - aka the og Little Mermaid statue, also near Kastellet (star-shaped island with windmills)
