When you arrive in Copenhagen during summer, you have many things to do to enjoy your perfect holiday. This post will share a detailed travel itinerary with you.
Day 1: Relaxation and Planning
Take a full rest on your first day in Copenhagen to recover from travel. Then, the next day, open your Google Maps and start exploring the city according to this list.
Day 2: Exploring the City
Copenhagen Central Station: This station, built on December 1, 1911, connects all of Denmark. You can reach it by bus, train, metro, or taxi (taxis can be more expensive than you expect). Denmark’s oldest station, Roskilde Station, established in 1847, is accessible by train from Copenhagen Central Station. Remember to purchase tickets before your trip.
Tivoli Gardens: Right outside Copenhagen Central Station lies Tivoli Gardens, a world-famous amusement park for all ages. Founded in 1843, the park offers an entry ticket for 140 DKK or an entry and unlimited rides ticket for just 419 DKK. You can easily spend a full day or a fun-filled morning and afternoon enjoying the park’s adventurous rides. Restaurants are available inside, but be aware that they are slightly more expensive than outside options.
Nyhavn (New Harbor): After your exciting day at Tivoli, head to Nyhavn in the evening. This colorful harbor transforms into a vibrant scene at night. Relax here with friends or family, enjoy the atmosphere, and grab a bite to eat. Keep in mind that Nyhavn can be somewhat overrated, and the restaurants tend to be pricier than elsewhere. However, it’s a wonderful place for a relaxing evening.
Day 3: Unveiling History
The National Museum of Denmark: Museums offer a fantastic way to delve into a country’s history. As a traveler, understanding the local history enriches your experience. Take a train, bus, or metro to The National Museum of Denmark, also known as Prince’s Palace. Located at Ny Vestergade 10, 1471 Copenhagen K, the museum offers adult tickets starting from 120 DKK to 130 DKK, with free entry for children. You can purchase tickets online for convenience. The museum is open from April to October, daily from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
