Tour highlights

  • We journey from the historic grandeur of City Hall and Slotsholmen to the ultra-modern waterfront, featuring the glass-and-granite Black Diamond and the artistic Circle Bridge by Olafur Eliasson.
  • Instead of a long walk through industrial areas, we board the Havnebus for a scenic 20-minute navigation. This offers "front-row seats" to Nyhavn, the Royal Playhouse, and the Opera House from the water.
  • We dock directly at Refshaleøen just as the "Golden Hour" begins. Your guide introduces you to the best global street food stalls and hidden corners of Reffen, leaving you to enjoy the city’s most vibrant sunset atmosphere.
