15 days in Copenhagen Itinerary

Founded in the 10th century as a Viking fishing village, Copenhagen has morphed into the cultural, political, and economic powerhouse of the country.

Venture out of the city with trips to Hillerod (Frederiksborg Slotskirke & Frederiksborg Castle), Helsingoer (Helsingor Havn, Kronborg, &more) and The Karen Blixen Museum (in Rungsted). There's much more to do: explore the historical opulence of Rosenborg Castle, take in the spiritual surroundings of Our Saviour's Church, take an in-depth tour of National Museum of Denmark, and take in panoramic vistas at Rundetarn.
