TOURS IN COPENHAGEN
ABOUT THIS TOUR
Our Kronborg Castle & Fredersikborg Palace Tour is an 6 hour excursion into Danish history, culture and nature by visiting at least 3 palaces.
Kronborg is a 600 year old renaissance castle located in picturesque Elsinore just one hour North of Copenhagen. There is more to Kronborg than Hamlet, and there is more to Elsinor than Kronborg, for instance the scenic drive from Copenhagen.
Frederiksborg Palace is another impressive renaissance palace from the hay-days of the Danish past, and hold the inspiring National Historic Museum today. We recommend that we visit both Kronborg and Frederiksborg but only pays entrance and enter one of the palaces.
On your private guided castle tour we will stop by Fredensborg Palace, now the summer residence for the Royal family. Fredensborg Palace is located midway between Kronborg and Frederiksborg.
