Things to do in Zealand, Zealand: The Best Private Tours

June 15, 2021 Nobuko Falco

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.

Rented a touring bike to bike around Österlen. The bike was excellent with great comfort, and the staff service minded to help me get the most out of my trip. The ship was close to the trains so we could get on Pågatågen quick and easy.

It was great to be able to go around freely and at our own pace. Malmo has a great infrastructure for biking in place, and it is really easy to go around. For the small one (6 yrs) we choose to get a cargostyle bike, which worked out really well.

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!

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 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.
