Overview
Denmark exists because a goddess plowed an island out of Sweden in a single night — at least, that's what the Norse myth says. This self-guided walking tour of Copenhagen uses an app to take you from that legend's fountain to the Little Mermaid, with no guide to wait for and no group to follow.
You'll stand where Bishop Absalon built the fortress that created the city, learn why Nyhavn's colorful houses were once advertising, and discover how a small Danish trading company smuggled ninety percent of England's tea. Walk through Amalienborg — four palaces that became the royal residence only because the original burned down — and hear about a tattooed princess who quietly defied royal convention.
Start whenever you like and pause at your convinience. Everything works offline. Over 20,000 travelers have explored cities with us, and a full refund guarantee means there's nothing to lose. If you'd rather set your own pace than follow a flag, this Copenhagen audio tour was built for you.

Itinerary
Stand where a warrior bishop built a fortress and accidentally founded a capital city.
Learn why three branches of Danish power share one roof — and why this is the third building to stand here.
See a Danish king dressed as a Roman emperor on Scandinavia's oldest equestrian statue.
Trace how a gritty sailors' canal dug by prisoners of war became Copenhagen's most photographed street.
Look up at the modest rented room where a poor storyteller wrote fairy tales the world never forgot.
Step onto a stage that floats over the harbour, blending drama with modern design
Discover four identical palaces built for nobles that became the royal residence by accident after a fire.
Uncover why a small Danish trading company that once smuggled England's tea commissioned this statue.
Follow the saga of a church left unfinished for one hundred and fifty years until a beer magnate paid the bill. Notice a wooden altar disguised as marble and a stonemason's vase carved with the names of workers who died building it.
Encounter the Norse goddess whose one-night plowing session tore Zealand from Sweden and created Denmark.
Step inside the only Anglican church in Denmark, built by British expats and opened by a Danish-born princess.
