About this activity

This full-day tour not only provides a journey to two castles, one of which is listed on the UNESCO Heritage list, and a cathedral, also on the UNESCO Heritage list.

Your English-speaking driver will guide you to Kronborg Castle and Roskilde's Cathedral, providing info-tainment— a delightful mix of facts presented in an easy-going manner, with a twinkle in the eyes of our excellent driver and guide.

The narrative strikes a balance, offering just enough facts without overwhelming you with years, kings, and wars and coupled with a touch of humor and fun.

No need for cardio exercise on this day. 10000 steps is reach before the end of the day, and you will have walked up spiral staircases in medieval castles, crossed cobble stone covered streets.

The tour offers also a lot of fresh air and a taste of the Danish weather. So for clothing, do like the Danes says; There is no bad weather, just the wrong clothing!
