Overview

Wonder where previous royals spent their summers? In the heart of today's Copenhagen! 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 surroundings are filled with castles and palaces, but on our private walking tour, we’ll take you to one of the best—Rosenborg Castle. Along the way, we’ll explore another grand palace, a historic square with the “Stone of Shame,” colourful townhouses, and iconic towers.

We’ll stop by Christiansborg Palace, stroll through the remnants of Old Town, and uncover hidden gems. We'll also learn about legends like Bishop Absalon and Tycho Brahe. The tour culminates at Rosenborg Castle, home to Denmark’s royal treasures, before ending at the charming Nyhavn, a must-see spot for everyone.

Activity itinerary

Hojbro Plads
  • 10m
  • Admission ticket not included
Højbro Plads, or "Højbro Square," was constructed following the great fire of Copenhagen in the 1700s. The square features an equestrian statue of Bishop Absalon, the founder of the city. During the winter, it hosts one of Copenhagen’s many Christmas markets.
Stroeget
  • 10m
  • Admission ticket not included
Strøget, Copenhagen’s — and one of Europe’s — longest pedestrian streets, stretches for 1.11 kilometres. Renowned primarily for its shopping, it runs from the Town Hall to Kongens Nytorv near Nyhavn, offering a vast array of stores. Visitors strolling along Strøget will also encounter numerous street performers, including acrobats, magicians, and musicians.
Church of the Holy Ghost
  • 10m
  • Admission ticket not included
Helligåndskirken (The Church of the Holy Ghost) is one of Copenhagen’s oldest churches, built in the 1200s. Initially, there was no tower.
Grabrodretorv
  • 10m
  • Admission ticket not included
Gråbrødetorv, or "The Grey Friars Square," is a charming square named after the Franciscan monastery that once occupied the site. It is known for the Stone of Shame, with the original stone preserved at the Natural History Museum. This stone is tied to the storey of Leonora Christina, the daughter of Christian IV.
Rundetarn
  • 10m
  • Admission ticket not included
Meander through Copenhagen’s Old Town, home of sites like the Round Tower. The Rundetårn, or "Round Tower," constructed in the 1600s, is the oldest functioning observatory in Europe. However, it was not Denmark's first observatory. Renowned Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe developed the "Tychonian" system—an intricate and advanced model of the solar system for its era.
Rosenborg Castle
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket included
Rosenborg Castle was originally built as a summer residence for Christian IV. Visitors to the castle can step back in time and immerse themselves in over 400 years of royal life, from daily routines to grand festivities. The castle also houses the Danish crown jewels, which are unique in that they are both exhibited as museum pieces and worn by the royal family.
Frederiks Kirke (Marmorkirken)
  • 10m
  • Admission ticket not included
Marmorkirken, also known as the Marble Church or Frederik's Church, dates back to the 1700s. Today, it is a popular wedding venue, with the bells ringing frequently on Fridays and Saturdays. Visitors can also enjoy a stunning view from the top of the dome, which is open daily.
Amalienborg Museum
  • 10m
  • Admission ticket not included
Amalienborg serves as the official residence of the Royal Family. The former queen, Margrethe, resides in the palace closest to the waterfront on the left, while her son, King Frederik, lives directly across from her with his wife, Mary, and their four children.
Royal Danish Theater (Kongelige Teater)
  • 10m
Today, the Royal Danish Theatre consists of the Old Stage on Kongens Nytorv, the new Copenhagen Opera House, and the Royal Danish Playhouse, both located by the harbour front.
Nyhavn
  • 10m
  • Admission ticket not included
Nyhavn, originally a busy port filled with ships making deliveries, is now a colourful, must-see site in Copenhagen. Today, Nyhavn holds the nickname "the longest outdoor bar in Scandinavia" due to its many restaurants, pubs, and cafés open 24 hours a day. Nyhavn was once the home of author Hans Christian Andersen.
