Getting around Copenhagen

It’s easy to keep saving money after your cheap flight to Copenhagen. Borrow a bicycle with CityBikes, a free service that lets visitors pedal their way around the city. You will have to leave a small deposit that is fully refundable when you and your bike return. 

The next-cheapest way to get around is by buying a Klippekort, worth 10 trips on the metro or bus. To go beyond Copenhagen, you may want to purchase a ScanRail pass, which offers discounts on travel through Denmark and other Scandinavian countries.  

What is good to know if travelling to Copenhagen?

• Copenhagen’s canals are pristine. In good weather Danes head to the harbour basin at Islands Brygge to swim and dive. There is a swimming pool, diving pool and children’s pool. The season runs from June 22 to August 31, 7am to 7pm, seven days a week. 
• The Icebar at Hotel 27 has a temperature of about -5 degrees and everything is made of ice – walls, bars, tables, even your personal glass with a vodka cocktail. Capes and a free drink are included in the admission price. 
• Amalienborg Palace is the winter home of the Danish royal couple. The Royal Guard is on duty for 24 hours, with the changing of the guard taking place every day at midday. 
• Christiania, a district that’s a mixture of anarchy and hippie ideals, was founded in 1971. About 1,000 people took over the area of military barracks and created a self-governing pocket with self-contained businesses and judiciary. It’s an alternative society within society. Its citizens make and sell the family-friendly Christiania bikes. There are cafés, restaurants and stalls selling jewellery and other arts and crafts. 
• After disembarking cheap flights to Copenhagen, get an injection of culture, free. The state-run museums such as the National Museum, Museum of Danish Resistance, Open Air Museum and National Gallery offer free entry all week to permanent exhibitions and special exhibitions. Other museums, that are free on Wednesdays, include the Hirschsprung Collection, the Geological Museum, Thorvaldsens Museum, Naval Museum and Hunting and Forestry Museum. The Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek is free on Sundays and the Copenhagen City Museum free on Fridays.
