Nothing is more exciting than a weekend trip away to a city you’ve always wanted to visit.
But how do you make the most out of your time?
With a good amount of planning, a reliable travel insurance policy and a good knowledge of all the best things to do in Copenhagen, your weekend away to the City of Spires can be one that you’ll never forget.
Prepare well for your trip
A successful trip is all in the planning. Whether you’re going for two days or two weeks, make sure you plan your trip properly to include all of the sites that you don’t want to miss.
Take time to work out the best hotels to stay in and make sure you book well in advance to keep costs low. Remember that Copenhagen is a city that will have you walking around all day every day, so make sure you pack some comfy shoes so that you can keep up the pace!
Also, remember that the city can get cold, so make sure to pack a jumper particularly if you’re traveling in the winter months!
Another important thing to remember for any trip away is to get travel insurance. Insurance is essential to making sure you can relax and have a good time without any additional stress when you’re away.
Holiday cover will make sure you are compensated for any lost luggage, theft, or medical expenses that you may face when you’re abroad and can save you a lot of money in the long run. It is always a good idea to make sure you’re covered for any trip you are taking.
What to do in Copenhagen
So now that you’ve prepared for your trip, here are some of the absolute must-do things to help you make the most of your weekend away in Copenhagen:
Spend a morning renting a bicycle and taking in the city of spires this way.
The city has so many famous sites scattered around such as the Little Mermaid and Nyhavn and renting a bike is the perfect way to ensure that you hit all these sites and get an incredible view of the city at the same time!
If all that cycling around gets you hungry, head along to the famous meat-packing district to kick back and enjoy some cold beer and street food amongst the city’s old warehouses and trading points.
If you’re looking for the best atmosphere, it is recommended that you head along on a Friday or Saturday night when the area is buzzing with people.
If you have the time, make sure to spend some time wandering around the city’s expansive parks. They are a beautiful way to spend some downtime, and they have the bonus of lots of independent cafes and restaurants nearby for you to grab a bite to eat!
If you want to take in some culture, why not go and visit the crown jewels at Rosenborg Castle? Take a walk around the grounds then grab a ticket to take a tour of the impressive rooms in the castle. Don’t forget to head down to the vaults to get a peek at the crown jewels!
Copenhagen is famous for its incredible nightlife. Make sure you plan an evening to take in the vibrant bars and nightclubs, catch a show, and dance into the night.
A weekend away may not seem like a lot of time, but if you plan well, you should be able to fit in everything on this list and maybe even more too! Prioritize the things you’re most excited to see and plan well and your weekend away in Copenhagen will be unforgettable.
