Top 5 experiences in Copenhagen

It can be overwhelming with all that Copenhagen has to offer, so we have picked out 5 experiences that we think are worth a visit on your mini break.

1. Canal tour

The canal tour is without a doubt the most beautiful way to experience Copenhagen, in one hour. There are several providers of canal tours, but with all of them you get the charming maritime experience of Copenhagen seen from the water side.

2. The Blue Planet

The Blue Planet, located on Amager, is Northern Europe's largest aquarium with over 20,000 fish and marine animals, giving a total of 450 species. The aquariums at the Blue Planet contains no less than 7 million liters of water. At The Blue Planet, both adults and children will get an exceptional look into what is really happening below the surface of the sea.

3. Nyhavn

A walk along the quay in the old harbor district Nyhavn is, regardless of the weather, an experience in a class of its own and something you simply have to see. In the historic, colorful buildings, which has housed the famous writer H. C. Andersen, you will find cafes, bars and restaurants where you can sit and enjoy a coffee or a great meal while overlooking the historic wooden ships that lie along the quay.

4. Tivoli

The old amusement park Tivoli is the most famous amusement park in Denmark. The amusement park offers everything from a cozy atmosphere and a beautiful garden to delicious restaurants and thrill rides. The old garden is just a few minutes’ walk from our three Wakeup hotels.

5. Vor Frelsers Kirke

The iconic tower at Christianshavn with the twisted spire is definitely worth a visit - if you do not suffer from fear of heights. There are no less than 400 steps to the top of the tower, but once you get up there you will also find Copenhagen's best view.
