Wonder where previous royals spent their summers? In the heart of today's Copenhagen! We'll take you to The King's Garden and scout for more hangouts on our Copenhagen & Rosenborg Castle Private Walking Tour.
Copenhagen and its surroundings are filled with castles and palaces, but on our private walking tour, we’ll take you to one of the best—Rosenborg Castle. Along the way, we’ll explore another grand palace, a historic square with the "Stone of Shame," colourful townhouses, and iconic towers.
We’ll stop by Christiansborg Palace, stroll through the remnants of Old Town, and uncover hidden gems. We'll also learn about legends like Bishop Absalon and Tycho Brahe.

(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Hojbro Plads
Højbro Plads, or "Højbro Square," was constructed following the great fire of Copenhagen in the 1700s. The square features an equestrian statue of Bishop Absalon, the founder of the city. During the winter, it hosts one of Copenhagen’s many Christmas markets.
Stroget
Strøget, Copenhagen’s — and one of Europe’s — longest pedestrian streets, stretches for 1.11 kilometers. Renowned primarily for its shopping, it runs from the Town Hall to Kongens Nytorv near Nyhavn, offering a vast array of stores. Visitors strolling along Strøget will also encounter numerous street performers, including acrobats, magicians, and musicians.
Church Of The Holy Spirit
Helligåndskirken (The Church of the Holy Ghost) is one of Copenhagen’s oldest churches, built in the 1200s. Initially, there was no tower.
