Overview

A mysterious voice calls your name through Copenhagen. Follow it from the Royal Danish Theatre through Nyhavn's canal houses to the Little Mermaid statue at the harbour. This self-guided fairy tale quest weaves Andersen's famous storey into a real city adventure.

Solve 11 puzzles at iconic landmarks. Decode a palace password at Amalienborg, meet Agnete rising from the canal, and return the Little Mermaid's voice at the harbour.

Download the Questo app, activate with your booking code, and start at Kongens Nytorv. No guide needed, just your phone, clues and a map in the app. Play as a family or team of up to 3. Pause anytime to explore or grab a coffee.

Discover where Andersen lived and wrote, why he kept a strange note by his bed every night, and how a Norse goddess created Zealand by ploughing through Sweden.

Perfect for families with children. About 55 minutes, 11 stops, 4 km from theatre to harbour. Available every day. One of the most magical ways to see Copenhagen with kids.
