1.Full-Day; Castle, Palace, Cathedral & Viking ships Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 326 reviews · 9 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $217Our pick

Spend 9.5 hours touring Kronborg Castle, Frederiksborg Palace, Roskilde Cathedral, and the Viking Ship Museum from Copenhagen. You’ll ride in a small air-conditioned van with WiFi and bottled water, hear lively commentary from guides such as Simon and René, and have free time for lunch and exploring. Expect many steps and a full day on your feet.

“It was a very enjoyable experience and done at a comfortable pace with free time to explore. The tour is for history and culture buffs. It is too long for young children, except the Viking museum which has a hands on carpenter shop for kids to build a boat. The guide is key to your tour experience and we had Simon from Ophelia Tours, a trained archeologist with a keen knowledge of the sights, culture, and history. He was terrific.”

Also they got back about 2 hr later than us. Other than that I would recommend this tour.”

You’ll change at Myrdal, descend to Flåm, cruise the Aurlandsfjord and narrow Nærøyfjord to Gudvangen, then continue through Voss. No guide accompanies you, so careful timing and light luggage matter.

“Generally it was an OK trip, the scenery was very good. However, it’s quite tiring to be lugging luggages around from train to train. Especially the train to Flåm, it was very packed and everyone was fighting their way up the train. There wasn’t enough space for luggage storage anymore and I had to hold on to it. The tickets were a little confusing (we thought the cruise ride was a round-trip ticket), my friend and I needed to stay over at Stalheim for the night as we left our luggages at Flåm. We needed to give up our train tickets from Voss to Bergen in the end. Nevertheless, it…”
