AFTERNOON

Get comfortable on your sofa … we’re about to start the tour to the heart of the city.

Talk like a local

The Danish language is a North Germanic language spoken by around 6 million people. Once you start learning a bit, you’ll quickly be able to understand a bit of Swedish and Norwegian too. That’s because all three languages are derived from Old Norse, the language of the vikings.

Ready for a bit of Danish (with or without pastry in hand)?
