    Something I always suggest people to do when visiting Copenagen, is to simply walk from one end of the canal to the other - but each time there is a bridge you cross it and keep walking on the opposite side. This gives a great diverse and constantly shifting perspective, with lovely views and a direct path to any major area of interest. Then at the end you can hop on the ferries that use the same ticket system as the busses and metro, and get back to the center :)

    I spent a fantastic week in Copenhagen in February 2022. It was chilly but beautiful and I didn't want to leave. The Little Mermaid was gorgeous and my partner and I enjoyed having coffee in Lagkagehuset. Walking in the streets was such a pleasure as was our trip to see La Boheme at the incredible opera house. It was so well done that I cried all the way through it. I have bought language books and listen to Rasmus Seebach sing, but it is a difficult language to try and learn although it's lovely to hear it spoken.

    Hey Adam, I must say I loved your video, your positivity and how nicely you presented your beautiful Copenhagen city for travellers. My favourite part was when you spoke while riding your bike and coming towards the camera on the street. It was a beautiful scene to watch. I also really enjoyed looking at your cinematography and camera movements of shooting several places in Copenhagen specially the scenes of Tivoli Gardens. What camera and lens do you use? and How did you do it? Watching Tivoli shots were like so clear, excellent video quality and it felt like you are so close to the rides. Very nice video and helpful for travellers. Keep up the good work!

      Honestly, it's hard to go wrong with where to stay, as Copenhagen isn't that big. If you find a hotel that looks nice within your budget, go for it. If you stay in the city center (Indre By) you can basically walk everywhere. If you stay in other parts you could bike around or just hop on the metro.
      Hope you enjoy your trip!

      Hmm, good question! It's not something I've really seen (nor can I find any on Google). Cargo bikes are pretty common and you can rent those, but honestly I'm not sure they are easier and they come with other problems, like, you taking up 80% of the bike lane. But could be worth a look?

      There should be buses when you arrive at the cruise terminal, where you then should get off at 'Orientkaj'. From here you can take the Metro (M4 line) directly to Copenhagen Central station. There should also be some staff to help guide you in the right direction. Alternatively, you can take a taxi - but it is about 10 times more expensive. Enjoy your visit!
