Copenhagen Bike Safari

Copenhagen is a biking city!

Did you know that more than 300.000 cyclists commute through Copenhagen every day?
Each day people of Copenhagen bike 1,34 mio. km. That is 31 times around the world!
And that we have 400 km. of biking lanes to ride on?

It might look overwhelming when a big group of fast riding bikers pass you on the street, but Copenhagen is a green city where people go from A to B on two wheels. Make the jump and join us on a bike tour and do as the locals. On our bicycle safari we will explore the cool bridges along the harbour front, and see the highlights of the city. Copenhagen is full of hidden gems and green breathing holes – making it ideal for a day out on two wheels.

Haven’t ridden a bike before? We make sure that your safety comes first. We will give you an instruction on how to use the bike and equip you with a helmet, so no need to worry!

By bike you get a chance to see much more and with one of our local guides, it is time well spend!

Carlsberg – A story about Danish beer

The Father, The Son and The Beer

In 1838  J. C. Jacobsen tasted Bavarian beer for the first time. It was the start of the world’s fourth largest brewery, Carlsberg.
Meet us at Carlsberg and join us on a journey where we talk about the history of beer which started over 10.000 years ago!
We tell about the founder J. C. Jacobsen, who named the brewery after his son Carl and the hill upon which the plant is located – Valby Bakke.
The son entered the family business, but they got into a conflict, and that is why you will hear about New and Old Carlsberg. We will tell you about their battles and reconciliation.

Carlsberg has donated many gifts to the people of Denmark – like Frederiksborg Slot, The Glyptotek, The Botanical Garden and last but surely not least, the Little Mermaid.

We will walk around in the Carlsberg City, visit the garden, look at both the old and new buildings and hear the story. And of course… there are no talks about beer without tastings.

Did you know that in the 1800th century the water in Copenhagen was so dirty, that you had to drink beer instead? Any grownup received 6 liters of beer a day and the students at the latin schools got 3-4 liters!
