A whirlwind tour of Denmark’s Capital Region, this journey will take in the best of Copenhagen and surrounds, with numerous well-known attractions and plenty of personal connections with Danes along the way. Exploring Copenhagen’s historic core on foot, by boat and by bicycle, you’ll glimpse a few of its most charming quarters, fascinating museums and historic castles, having your fill at its fine selection of restaurants renowned for Nordic cuisine. Beyond the capital proper, you’ll sample a smattering of famous castles on the island of Sjælland, crossing Storebælt – the Great Belt Bridge – to reach Odense on Funen, where you’ll experience the magical world of the widely beloved teller of tales Hans Christian Andersen.
