The 10 Best Sightseeing Tours in Zealand, Zealand

August 10, 2021 Kiesha Cripe

Denmark's largest island is so much more than simply the home of the country's dynamic capital, Copenhagen. Zealand also offers a delightful array of holiday homes and villas, pleasing harbors and sandy beaches, fringed by forests where castles lurk. Major destinations include the UNESCO-designated, Dutch Renaissance-style Kronborg Castle in Helsingor and the Viking attractions, cathedral and music festival of Roskilde. To the south bobs a flotilla of beautiful and relatively untouched islands.

Although I know Copenhagen quite well, the Hidden Gems tour took me to places I wasn't aware of (like tucked-away backyards) or had never noticed before (e.g. historic buildings). I very much enjoyed strolling through Christianshavn, paying attention to details I am usually oblivious of and hearing about the history of the neighbourhood. I received helpful advice in terms of how to frame my pictures, from where to shoot, and what settings to use. My guide also taught me how to create lens flares which I found really cool. Thanks for an enjoyable and informative afternoon!

We were happy to have Nadia as a guide, who was absolutely nice and welcoming. A genuine professional that could quickly notice what triggered our interest along the tour and bring up more interesting details to meet our curiosity. It really just felt like walking around with a friend who is truly passionate about Danish culture herself and together enjoying the beautiful places we were seeing. This tour option turned out perfect for the corona time when everything is closed because, even though you cannot enter the castles or the library or anything, there is a person who can describe it to you in a comprehensive and captivating way. Definitely enjoyed this experience.

The legendary creatures of Danish folklore are more than just the Little Mermaid immortalised by H. C. Andersen. The Danish bestiary also includes such monsters as man-eating trolls, dragons who hoard treasures and fight against bulls, the heraldic wild men depicted on the royal coat of arms and the strange creature known as the ”Sea Bishop”. Even the centre of Copenhagen that draws the most tourists and traffic is haunted by mythical beasts who are seen in statues, reliefs and artwork on buildings. Yet many of these monsters remain unknown to most visitors. You can, however, now fill this gap in your folkloric knowledge with this self-guided GPS audio tour. Download the HidDenmark Monstour VoiceMap unto your Smartphone. It will guide you on a journey from the Tivoli amusement park over the Copenhagen Stock Exchange to the canals, while narrating how weird tales of strange and terrible beings have shaped the capitol of the country.

Inclusions: Lifetime access to this English audio tour, VoiceMap app for Andriod or iOS, Offline access to audio, maps, and geodata

Exclusions: Smartphone and headphones, Transportation, Food and drinks, Tickets or entrance fees to any museums or other attractions en route

And we ate it all! Seraina was very knowledgeable about the area. Showed us a great variety of Danish foods and when we went to get our Danish hotdogs and everything closed she did everything she could to make sure we had our hotdog in whatever form we could find. Great conversation and lot of fun. Hope to see her again.

We booked the 2h tour and luckily we were the only ones on this tour so we had our private guide. He knew a lot of details about the sights in Copenhagen and of course Segway is a lot of fun. We also never felt uncomfortable driving through the Copenhagen traffic since we mostly used smaller roads. Thanks a lot!

Hey Captain was founded by friends on a boat and this is the atmosphere we want to deliver to our guests. So sit back, relax in our comfortable boats, and enjoy a drink as we take you around on a charming experience of the canals.  During the tour your captain will show you our favorite sights in the harbor. There is plenty of time to ask questions and we hope you want to engage in a conversation about life in Copenhagen. Our ambition is to give you a sense of the city more than an overload of historical facts. The route is not 100% standardized as we want to try to accommodate specific wishes of the group and special events in the harbor. We will give you a good overview of the main sights in the central city in a relaxed way. The 2-hour Hidden Gems Tour will take you off the beaten track from the standard canal tour routes in the inner town, exploring the upcoming residential areas of either the South or North harbor.

Inclusions: Non-alcoholic beverages

Exclusions: Alcoholic beverages available for purchase on board
