Description
Wonder where previous royals spent their summers? We'll take you to The King's Garden and scout for more hangouts on our Copenhagen & Rosenborg Castle Private Walking Tour.
Copenhagen and its surrounding area boast an abundance of castles and palaces—so how do you choose just one to visit? No need to worry! We’ll take you to one of our top picks: the enchanting Rosenborg Castle. But that’s not all—on our Copenhagen & Rosenborg Castle Private Walking Tour, we’ll explore another majestic palace, a historic square with a “Stone of Shame,” colorful townhouses, and an array of Copenhagen’s iconic towers. There’s plenty to discover, so let’s dive into the tour!
We begin with a view of Denmark’s Parliament, the Queen's Royal Reception Rooms, and another favorite palace of ours—all of which are part of Christiansborg Palace. Strolling through the remnants of Copenhagen’s Old Town, much of which was rebuilt after devastating fires, we’ll uncover hidden gems that only locals know how to find. You’ll hear stories of legendary Danes, from Bishop Absalon, often credited as Copenhagen’s founder, to the renowned astronomer Tycho Brahe. Iconic sites like Kongens Nytorv, Strøget, and the Round Tower await us.
Just around the corner from the Round Tower, we’ll enter a leafy park where, nestled among the trees (especially lush in summertime), stands Rosenborg Castle. Surrounded by a scenic moat and crowned with towering spires, Rosenborg is a masterpiece created by King Christian IV, whose architectural legacy still shapes the city today. We’ll step inside this magnificent summer residence turned museum, home to Denmark’s royal treasures.
To round off our journey, we’ll visit one of Copenhagen’s most beloved spots: Nyhavn. Whether you’re drawn by its picturesque canals, charming boats, historic fairytales, or quirky shops, Nyhavn has something for everyone. We dare you to experience its charm firsthand!
