About the tour
Immerse yourself in the enchanting winter magic of Copenhagen on an exclusive 1.5-hour private Christmas tour designed to unlock the true meaning of Danish hygge. Stroll through fairy-lit cobblestone streets and festive holiday markets alongside your dedicated private guide.

Itinerary
Your festive journey begins at City Hall Square (Rådhuspladsen), meeting your private guide right next to the iconic Dragon Fountain (Dragespringvandet). Look for our signature RED Walk and Tour umbrella. As you walk past glowing street decorations, your guide will introduce you to Danish Christmas heritage and the secrets of winter hygge.
Stop at a charming holiday market stall to savor warm, freshly made æbleskiver paired with aromatic gløgg (or coffee/hot chocolate) and a sip of traditional Danish Julebryg beer. During a cozy break, your guide will teach you the historic art of weaving Hans Christian Andersen Christmas paper hearts to take home as a souvenir.
Continuing through the festive heart of the city, your guided tour concludes at the world-famous Nyhavn Christmas Market. Explore the atmospheric stalls lining the historic harbor before receiving your skip-the-line Tivoli Gardens admission tickets from your guide, allowing you to enter Tivoli whenever you wish and enjoy the illuminated park at your own pace.
