Sandra was a terrific guide on our Christmas tour. She was very knowledgeable, had lots of amusing observations to share with us about Danish customs, food and spirit around the holidays. It was the PERFECT introduction to our Copenhagen holidays. I highly recommend!

Full description

Get in the holiday spirit with this guided walking tour of Copenhagen. Go beyond the Christmas markets as you find out about local Christmas traditions with the help of your guide. Indulge in some holiday sweets and some tantalizing festive drinks. Meet your guide near the Nørreport transit station at Torvehallerne and begin your magical adventure. Take in some dazzling Christmas decorations like string lights and stunning Christmas trees and see a local Christmas market. Listen as your local guide shares the meaning behind new and old Danish holiday traditions. Find out about ancient traditions that date all the way back to the Yuletide traditions of Viking times. Enjoy several local Christmas treats like a mouthwatering Æbleskiver (Christmassy doughnut) and gingerbread hearts or another cake treat. Warm up with a Copenhagen’s best gløgg (mulled wine or spirit), and sip on a julebryg, a Christmas beer with a notorious local reputation. Try a Danish Christmas tradition firsthand, as you finish your tour with a fun game played by all Danes every Christmas (remember to bring small gifts for this). This tour ends at a Taphouse in Lavendelstræde.
