Overview

The tour is designed in such a way that you learn a wide variety of information about Denmark - not only historical facts, but also information about how the Danes live today, what values they believe in, what taxes they pay, how they feel about the monarchy, and what food habits they have. I read many wonderful books about Denmark, studied sociology and history of Denmark - to carefully analyze all this and to convey it in my excursions. The guided tour is atmospheric and fulfilling. So you would definitely feel the mood of Denmark and also fall in love with it. Is there anyone who doesn't like gifts? Special gifts that remind you of bright life moments and travels? At the end of our walks, you will get a small but heartwarming souvenir that will become a memory of your trip to Denmark.
