Excursions privées d'une journée depuis Copenhagen vers des lieux inoubliables

The best time to visit Copenhagen is May through September when temperatures are warmest and daylight hours are longest. Summer offers outdoor dining and festivals, while spring and early fall provide mild weather with fewer crowds and lower accommodation prices.

Danish is the official language, but English is widely spoken throughout Copenhagen. Most Danes speak excellent English, especially in tourism, hospitality, and retail sectors. Street signs and menus often include English translations in tourist areas.

No, Denmark uses the Danish Krone (DKK). Credit and debit cards are preferred over cash for most transactions, including small purchases. Contactless payments are extremely common, and many places are nearly cashless. ATMs are available but rarely needed.

Top attractions include Tivoli Gardens amusement park, the colorful Nyhavn harbor, the Little Mermaid statue, and Rosenborg Castle. Christiania free town, the Round Tower, and Amalienborg Palace offer unique cultural experiences. The National Museum provides excellent Danish history exhibits.

Copenhagen is one of the world's safest capital cities with very low crime rates. The city is well-lit and pedestrian-friendly even at night. Bicycle theft is the most common crime, so secure any rental bikes properly.

Popular day trips include Kronborg Castle in Helsingor (28 miles/45 km), famous as Hamlet's castle, the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, Viking history in Roskilde, and even Malmo, Sweden via the Oresund Bridge. With Daytrip, a custom sightseeing trip is just clicks away.

Pack layers including a waterproof jacket as weather can change quickly. Comfortable walking shoes are essential for cobblestone streets. Bring warm clothes even in summer as evenings can be cool, and consider a small backpack for day trips.

Major celebrations include Midsummer (June 23) with bonfires and festivities, Christmas markets in December, and Copenhagen Jazz Festival in July. Constitution Day (June 5) and Queen's Birthday (April 16) are national holidays when many businesses close.
