Copenhagen's Christmas Spirit

Discover historic landmarks, festive lights, and a Christmas market on our Copenhagen’s Christmas Spirit Private Walking Tour. From Danish traditions like “nisse” to a taste of Æbleskiver, join us for a magical holiday journey through time!

The story about the tour

On our Copenhagen’s Christmas Spirit Private Walking Tour, step back in time and experience the city’s historical charm with a touch of holiday magic. As we trace Copenhagen’s roots, you’ll discover hidden treasures tucked behind cosy street corners and creaky, old buildings that date back to a bygone era. Begin by admiring the grand City Hall before moving to the Church of Our Lady, where Danish royalty is wed. We’ll visit the University of Copenhagen, The Round Tower, and the colourful houses of Gråbrødretorv, all while heading toward the festive Strøget shopping street.

Christmas in Copenhagen is something extraordinary. Forget the chill as the city comes alive with sparkling lights, cheerful holiday decorations, and the scent of spiced treats in the air. Tivoli Gardens and the Hotel D’Angleterre dazzle with stunning Christmas displays while lively markets take over the streets, offering handmade crafts and festive delights.

During our Copenhagen’s Christmas Spirit Private Walking Tour, we’ll dive deep into Danish holiday traditions. Learn about “nisse” and why risengrød (rice porridge) holds a special place in the Danish heart. Discover how Danes celebrate lille juleaften (little Christmas Eve) and the ever-popular julefrokost (Christmas lunch). Of course, we’ll also share how beloved author Hans Christian Andersen influenced many Danish Christmas traditions.

    Happy Nobel Day! 💡 As Nobel Week was cancelled in 2020, Nobel lectures, prizes and banquets were replaced with Nobel Week Lights - light installations inspired by Nobel Prize-awarded findings and laureates. As the festivities are now back, we sure hope that we are so lucky that the artwork brightening up the city during the darkest month of the year; is a December tradition that has come to stay. 💫

🇸🇪 
Nobeldagen är här! 💡 Nobelveckan blev inställd 2020, och istället för Nobelföreläsningar, prisutdelning och bankett genomfördes Nobel Week Lights som är ljusinstallationer inspirerade av Nobelpris på olika platser i Stockholm. Det blev så uppskattat att det genomförs i år igen trots att Nobelveckan är återinförd. Har vi tur så är det en decembertradition som kommit för att stanna. 💫

    It’s a contested issue amongst numerous Baltic connected countries as to who invented the Ice-skate. Was it the Finns or the Dutch? All of this is irrelevant because the best city to ice-skate in is Stockholm. If you want to show off your Quadruple Axel in front of the masses, the ice-rink in Kungsträdgården is the perfect location. ✨⛸️✨

    Don't let its controversy cloud your curiosity as Christianshavns characteristic slanting roofs and canals, as well as the tremendous Church of Our Saviour, are well worth seeing. Not to forget the Færgecafé or Café Parterre who are both worth visiting.
