CANAL TOURS

A really nice way to explore all the canals of Copenhagen and a sampler of Danish architecture. Departure from Nyhavn, you can select different tours. The basic one takes you from Nyhavn to the canals of Holmen with all the new residential developments (look for the converted hangar), the Opera, a visit to the Little mermaid (just to see how small it is), Amalienborg Palace with the huge water fountain, the Mærsk headquarter, the canals of Christianshavn with all its houseboats and stylish apartments, the main library (the Black Diamond), the National museum, Gammel Strand (look after the underwater statues), and the old stock marked with its curly towers. The tour takes about an hour, but remember to pic a nice day. If you don't want to listen to an annoying guide in four languages, take one of the waterbuses instead. Same route - and you can hop off and on all along the route.
