Join our 2.5 hour harbor tour to learn all about Denmark’s history as a naval and merchant power, and see some of our most famous statues and buildings, from the Little Mermaid to Nyhavn.
For hundreds of years Denmark controlled the only naval route into the Baltic sea, which gave it formidable power. Today the old naval and merchant quarters have been turned into parks, grand promenades, and palaces. And in the grand tradition of Copenhagen, the harbor is still expanding to this day, with exciting and controversial projects! Visit an old star fort, the Little Mermaid, the royal gardens and more, and hear about Danish military might, slave rebellions, and the future of Copenhagen’s harbor.
