Roskilde Cathedral

Roskilde Cathedral

Enjoy a guided tour of this enormous cathedral, which holds the world record for the most monarchs buried in one place.

November–March: we stop for photographs outside the cathedral. During the rest of the year, the visit includes a full guided tour inside.

Viking Ship Museum

Viking Ship Museum

See five original Viking ships, around a thousand years old, that were sunk in the waters near Roskilde. The visit includes a full tour of the museum.

Frederiksborg Palace

Frederiksborg Palace

Often called the Versailles of Scandinavia, this magnificent palace was built in the early 1600s and is filled with beautiful rooms and artwork.

You explore the palace independently, dividing your time at this stop between lunch and discovering the palace.

Kronborg Castle

Kronborg Castle

Take a full guided tour of the impressive fortress famous as the setting of Shakespeare’s Hamlet. Discover its crucial role in Danish and Scandinavian history as the gateway to the Baltic Sea.

Look for a plain white minibus.

We offer pickup from most hotels in central Copenhagen. Pickups can start up to 60 minutes before departure; most take place 30–50 minutes before the tour begins.

You will receive an email with your exact pickup time at least 24 hours before the tour. Please reply to confirm the pickup reminder and check that the information you provided is correct. Contact us 24 hours before departure to verify your pickup time if you have not received it.

We do not collect from hotels outside the city centre, such as Crowne Plaza and AC Bella Sky, or from hotels right beside the departure point, where it is quicker to walk.

Cruise passengers: please provide your ship’s name so we can confirm whether pickup from your terminal is possible.

Luggage: suitcases and luggage are not allowed on the minibus.
