• Nyhavn. A canal lined with colourful townhouses, the capital's most recognisable view.

How much does a trip to Denmark cost

Beyond the room, daily costs are among the higher ones in Europe. A monthly transport pass is about DKK 450-500 and a loaf of bread about DKK 15. Cards are accepted almost everywhere, usually with a PIN, but a little cash is handy for small purchases. The currency is the Danish krone.

When is the best time to visit Denmark

Summer (June, July, August) is the warmest and most pleasant for sightseeing, but also the most expensive. February tends to be the cheapest month for stays. Spring and autumn are quieter, and the longer spring days suit walks around the cities.

Getting to and around Denmark

Most flights use Copenhagen Airport (Kastrup), with Billund as a second large hub. Low-cost routes are served by Ryanair and easyJet among others. Trains (DSB) link all the main cities, and you can also arrive directly from Germany, Norway and Sweden. Copenhagen has a metro that runs 24/7, while other cities such as Aarhus and Odense use buses. Denmark is known for its cycling infrastructure. It is part of the European Union and the Schengen Area.
