My feedback from a consistent Copenhagen visitor. 1) Cph card is only worth it if you plan on doing many “touristy things”. Otherwise, separately paying for the small city metro pass for transit and individually paying for attractions is way more worth it. Additionally Cph card only gives you admission to Tivoli gardens but no rides. I did the calculations for each of my trips to Copenhagen and its way cheaper to just buy the Tivoli admission and ride pass separately from the Cph card. Same goes for the zoo. 2) for bike rental, and specifically donkey bike, if you are from north america or asia and only have access to esim and dont have access to texts (outside of apple imessage) you wont be able to use the service. Its better to go with a company like tier or rent private for a day. 3) to save money on food dont go to restaurants. Rather go to food markets like reffen or my favourite Broensgadekoekken. Dont buy alcohol from these places. Open carry of alcohol is legal so go to a grocery store and buy a bottle of wine or a 6 pack and you can get 6 times the amount of alcohol for the same price. 4) If you enjoy nature, go to visit Traktørstedet Vestamager in the Amager Nature Centre. Admission is free and you can go up close to beautiful sheep and cows roaming a wetland just outside of an urban centre. Breakfast is cheap and delicious. Additionally take transit north to Dyrehaven (Deer Park) for Sightseeing and Cycling. It’s free and you can see hundreds of wild deer. 5) avoid coffee at coffee shops. It is an absolute rip off. About $8 USD per coffee. Pastries are an exception that is worth the cost at locations like Kobenhavns bakery, Lille, etc. 6) Don’t stay right downtown Cph. I highly recommend East Amager close to the airport and 10 minutes downtown. The benefit of staying in East Amager is being right on the beach!!!
Is that why the Danish ride their bicycle 🚲 with one hand holding a beer 😁? I'm surprised you didn't suggest the free picnic activity at the beautiful graveyard 🪦
There is an exception to the rip off and usually awful coffee in Copenhagen. It's a place called Paludan, near Copenhagen university. The food is also quite affordable and good quality. It's the only cafe I bother going to in Copenhagen. And it's excellent.
Thank u. I always think an expensive day pass is meant for people who want to squeeze in many sightseeing places. I prefer to take it slow. Side note: Also found out Swiss pass is not the best afterall.
As a priest and surgeon and musician, copenhagen is the most traumatic place for us due of the water bucket cost €5, which 15 times for extinguisher on top of the house 😢

Just some more tips from a local if anyone is curious. If you still want a narrated boat tour on the cheap, you actually can. You'll see the big flashy white and yellow canal boats a lot but go down a bit further and you'll find a more rustic and cheap dock. Specifically at Holmens Kirke near Christiansborg palace and the Stock exchange, or on the southern side of Nyhavn opposite the colourful buildings. There you'll find the blue "Nettobåde" or "Netto boats". These light blue canal boats have tours less frequently and slightly fewer options, but cost less than half of the other canal tours. These are more commonly used by native Danes than the other ones but still have english narration. And yeah Bakken is also cheaper than Tivoli Gardens. If you wanna go and ride the rides though, they have wristbands that are cheaper than paying per ride, but the earlier you buy a wristband the cheaper it gets. Sometimes you can save as much as 15 euros by booking one for a specific day early rather than going up on the train and getting there. Speaking of that, Bakken is just a 15 minute train ride from downtown on the C-line but its located outside the valid area of the City Pass daypass. At least the 80kr one. So if you wanna go to Bakken, you either need to pay a normal train fare from the edge of the city pass validity in Hellerup to the end of the line, or get a City Pass large. The City Pass Large is twice as expensive but cover all of the capital region instead of just the inner city. Very useful if you plan on visiting attractions around Copenhagen instead of just in it, like the Roskilde Cathedral, the Viking Ship museum in Roskilde, Kronborg Castle, the Maritime museum, and Danish museum of Technology in Elsinore, Frederiksborg castle and the Gribskov forest in Hillerød, or the many seaside towns like Hundested, Tisvildeleje, Gilleleje, or Hornbæk. Also just a correction. The Roller coaster at Bakken is not the oldest in Denmark. Its from 1932, but the mountain roller coaster within Tivoli Gardens is actually even older. That one is from 1914 and is the oldest roller coaster in all of Europe and the 3rd oldest in the whole world.
Amaazing! Copenhagen is my favorite city in Scandinavia... Yeah.. I have just visited Copenhagen again on 16-17 August, 2023. My son who visited for some days has told me that it is more expensive there than in Stockholm. I see... I had a lunch for 2 persons - it cost me 638 Danish Crown.. Then when I see statement from my account it cost 1014 Swedish Crown - Not surprised at all. 💗 Thank you for sharing Next year some thai friends will visit me and surely we shall take a trip to Copenhagen.. Best Wishes from STOCKHOLM - SWEDEN 🌼🌷🌲🌻
the hotdog u ate is called a Risted hotdog, directly translated to roasted hotdog. pølse just means sausage. a roasted hotdog is different cause the pølse is grilled, where as in a normal hotdog the pølse is boiled.
so to round it up it is 70E a day. If you go there for 3 days i.e. a long weekend expected to spend min 210E. This is expensiv, even compare to city like London and Paris..... Well at least your 1000E latest iphone dont get stolen or you dont get stabbed by the usual suspects
You still have to eat additional real meals, coffee, pay for accommodation, and other drinks if that's something you would want to do during your holidays. Expect 100 to 130 euros per day overall for a decent stay on a budget. But it's totally worth it, it's the best city in Europe for sure.
You will have to buy the City Pass Large to be able to travel to Bakken, and the price is then double up, DKK 160,- The ticket control in Denmark is intense and the fine is high.
If you are in Copenhagen 3 days, just get a Copenhagen Card. All transport on the eastern part of Zeeland is covered incl. regional train from Copenhagen to Elsinore, all S-trains and all Metro subway lines and busses on the eastern part of Zeeland.
Darn. I wish you have released this video earlier. Last week we were there for 3 nights :( But one thing that is not mentioned here and I think everyone should check is the Copenhagen Card. It gives you unlimited public transport and free admissions to almost every attraction and museum. The most value for money is the 72 hours option but since it is calculated by hours and not calendar days you can make the most of it with 48 and even 24 hour options. Don't go back without seeing sights such as Rosenberg castle, Roundtower, Amelienborg, Church of our saviour, Tivoli etc. just to make it cheap. Most probably you won't visit Copenhagen a second time.
Tip for hotels- off season you can get room in normal hotel with private bathroom for $65 just 10 minutes walk from central station. Alternatively there are plenty of good hotels for about $70-85 with good breakfast included in neighbor city of Malmo Sweden- which is 35 minutes train ride from Copenhagen central station or CPH airport. 24h pass cost about $30 and valid for all trains and metro/buses within Malmo and central Copenhagen area. So you can stay in Malmo and also enjoy walking its beautiful old town and take train to Copenhagen- this is what I plan to do to save money on hotel in August.
Loved the video 😄 however hygge isn’t a lifestyle and it most certainly isn’t just in Nørrebro and Vesterbro. I think lots of danish people from Jutland fx would argue that those places are too rushy to be called hyggelige. Hygge is more like a feeling or a state of mind. It’s like having a good time (alone or with people you care of) 😄
Went there for the first time last weekend, for four days. I already miss this city! An interesting spot not shown in the video is Fristad Christiania (free).
Actually, the medieval part of Copenhagen burned down 3 times. The 1728 and 1795 fires happened in the medieval part of Copenhagen but the fires in 1807 were caused by the English bombarding Copenhagen from the sea, setting it alight. There are a few building left dating back to the 15th century but there are only but a few left.
As someone from Cyprus, i find Cph and Denmark as a country with slightly higher prices but thats it.. sure coffee is 8 USD.. In all of Europe a starbucks is like 5 6 EURO..
@@DWTravelNo, it’s actually misinformation. Sausage is pølse and sausages is well pølser. But some do say hotdog but it’s not really that common and there’s different slangs for how to order a hotdog in danish…
@@DWTravelyou forgot one important free activity, picnic in the semitary, yes by the graveyard 🪦🪦😂, for free. Also, the Danish ride bicycle with one hand holding beer😅 My 5 days stayed in Copenhagen was in April 2016, the hostel has a industrial size common kitchen with new cookware, I saved more by cooking my own pasta. It also has a bar. The receiptionist told me about free activity on the weekend was to check out the beautiful semitary 🪦 with lots of trees 🎄. People bring their own picnic blanket, picnic 🧺 busket, wines etc and chilling with friends the entire afternoon until sunset 🌇. I have never seen it elsewhere 😅 no one else in the world hanging out with picnic 🧺 by the graveyard 🪦.
@@CIeaner23In my 54 years, I've never ever, EVER heard a fellow Dane, referring a hotdog, as a pølse. If you order a "pølse", you'll get a "pølse med brød", meaning just the sausage, a hotdog bread on the side, as well as ketchup and remoulade.
Good suggestions. In addition: Use Netto, Lidl and other supermarkets for cheap beers and wine (they even keep them cold). Gå to Morgenstedet (Christiania) for the best affordable vegetarian food. Also mentionable is Absalon Church at Vesterbro. Skip the Danish hotdog though. It's just a poor copy of the orginal American hotdog.
Interesting. But the vast majority of people I've heard prefer the Danish hotdog to the American ones by a long shot. But I guess its a matter of personal taste...
A poor copy? An American hotdog is just bread and sausage maybe a little ketchup. The Danish has the whole taste palette. Are you even Danish or have tried the hotdog?
I am now in Copenhagen; I noticed that they drive their biycicles very fast and very close from pedstrians which is very dangerous to both!!They even do not ring their bells to notify the pedstrians which some of them are children, seniors and tourists!! No need to drive the bikes in such high speed (in 5 days I noticed more than near accidents among biycile riders and pedstrians).
That was an expensive hourly rental cost, I only bay around €5 per hour, but €20 for a day that's cheap. And BTW the Glyptotek is only free the last Wednesday in each month. But the Copenhagen Musem, Thorvaldsen's and Nikolaj Kunsthal is all free each Wednesday, futhermore the David's Collection is free every day all year. Other than that great video on showing that Copenhagen cam be done on a budget.
Take outside Copenhagen and discover the real Denmark take the train to Odense every think is cheaper and Hans Christian Andersen house is there and there is also a street food marked and other nice museums fx the biggest train museum in Denmark and "den gamle by i Odense" the old town in Odense where you can see what's Denmark have seen out back in the time.
wait we have water taps around the city to fill up water? wth? i've lived here for 8 years didn't know that. No wonder i either buy a bottle and refill at home or go to fisketorvets water tap on the ground floor where they have free unlimited water to drink from and they have their own cups too. Oh well might look out for these water taps around the city. Do u guys know where they are located so i know where to go when i'm about and about?
Get a months subscription of donkey republic for 34 euro and cancel immediately, afterwards for the next 30 days you can pickup and drop of their bikes anywhere in Copenhagen or just keep the same one rented for 7 continuos days.
I'm an American tourist planning to visit Denmark, so this was somewhat helpful. Honestly, I wasn't quite impressed. The city simply doesn't look grand or glamorous . It appears quite ordinary with little to do. Also, for future travel videos, it would help if you actually showed more sites rather than focus the camera on the "reporter" trying to act cute.
Considering how DW seem to always critize Denmark....its weird watching them release a video showing people how to enjoy Copenhagen without having to file for bankruptcy.
Yeah we thought about that a lot. We could converse prices from Danish krones in US Dollars - or in Indian Rupees because many of our subscribers come from India or the U.S. Then we decided to converse in euros because that's what DW as a German-based company usually does. And for most people, the value of the euro is probably better known than that of the Danish krone. Just to get an idea about the prices.
No mentioned of the little mermaid by the beach? Am i confused with Oslo? Im pretty sure the little mermaid is at Copenhagen 🤔 BTW, she's very small, you might almost miss her sitting quietly by the beach. I visited Copenhagen in April 2015, very expensive, ( as expensive as Oslo, Norway) it's nice to check ✔️ it off my bucket list but i won't be back. Not mentioned in this episode is the free activity picnic at the beautiful graveyard 🪦. People bring their 🧺 picnic blanket and wine, beers and chilling out until sunset 😄 . On the other hand, i visit some countries more than 3 or 4 times such as Morocco, Italy, France, Greece, Turkey because I love the Roman empire history and the ruins.
64 Euros for a day in Copenhagen (with only one hot dog in your belly) and... at least 500 Euros through the night. Copenhagen it's for the millionaires!!!
As a local - PLEASE don’t rent the bikes here! It’s super annoying for the people commuting to/from work and it’s dangerous if you’re not used to that kind of bike traffic!
Denmark hotels and cuisine are not worth it. Take the 30 minute train over to Sweden and stay there. Sweden is the epicenter of Scandinavian culture. The people are very hospitable, and everything that a tourist would find intriguing in Denmark, you will certainly find in Sweden at a sane, reasonable cost. I absolutely love Sweden. Denmark has priced itself out of viability except for a day trip.

They are coming, help us

DER KOMMER, HJAELP OS!!
One question, is there any zombies there?
Only brits
Try and see😂
What is the usual amount to tip in the free tours?
Get a months subscription of donkey republic for 34 euro and cancel immediately, afterwards for the next 30 days you can pickup and drop of their bikes anywhere in Copenhagen or just keep the same one rented for 7 continuos days.
.. LOVE YOU FLORA ESPINA!! 💝🌹
I'm an American tourist planning to visit Denmark, so this was somewhat helpful. Honestly, I wasn't quite impressed. The city simply doesn't look grand or glamorous . It appears quite ordinary with little to do. Also, for future travel videos, it would help if you actually showed more sites rather than focus the camera on the "reporter" trying to act cute.
Considering how DW seem to always critize Denmark....its weird watching them release a video showing people how to enjoy Copenhagen without having to file for bankruptcy.
many thanks for the great video
Edit: Be aware museums are no longer free every wednesday
I need to change money there or can i buy everything online with my phone?
Love it!
Lol. Hostel beds are actually available for around 30€/night. It doesn't start from 50€.
Do you know your not just a beautiful but jolly lady keep it up god bless you ❤
Nice
Very informative. Liked the video. Thanks. The amusement park looks like an exciting place.
Copenhagen is the best city to live.
why are you showing the prices in EU? Didn't they keep their own currency and not switch? I'm missing something.
Yea it’s Danish Krone out there but I guess this video might be targeted at Europeans?
the Danish crown is locked to the euro at a somewhat fixed rate to the Euro at 7,45ish so conversion is pretty simple
Yeah we thought about that a lot. We could converse prices from Danish krones in US Dollars - or in Indian Rupees because many of our subscribers come from India or the U.S. Then we decided to converse in euros because that's what DW as a German-based company usually does. And for most people, the value of the euro is probably better known than that of the Danish krone. Just to get an idea about the prices.
@@DWTravel I suppose
Didn't add stay @ hotel/hostel
You're right!
@@DWTravel it's okay! The episode is awesome! 😌🙌🏻
Excellent.
Nice country Denmark, is not a country for beggars like other countries in Europe, fully respect for culture in Denmark
Superb Tips.
No mentioned of the little mermaid by the beach? Am i confused with Oslo? Im pretty sure the little mermaid is at Copenhagen 🤔 BTW, she's very small, you might almost miss her sitting quietly by the beach.
I visited Copenhagen in April 2015, very expensive, ( as expensive as Oslo, Norway) it's nice to check ✔️ it off my bucket list but i won't be back. Not mentioned in this episode is the free activity picnic at the beautiful graveyard 🪦. People bring their 🧺 picnic blanket and wine, beers and chilling out until sunset 😄
. On the other hand, i visit some countries more than 3 or 4 times such as Morocco, Italy, France, Greece, Turkey because I love the Roman empire history and the ruins.
yeah we Danes don't really know why the tiny mermaid statue is supposed to be a tourist attraction either....🤷♂
are all there shops closing down like they are doing in other western cities if not why not
Elsker det 😏
Do you know if U.S visa debit card is accepted there?
To be honest, no. But isn't VISA internationally accepted?
@@DWTravel I believe so
64 Euros for a day in Copenhagen (with only one hot dog in your belly) and... at least 500 Euros through the night. Copenhagen it's for the millionaires!!!
As a local - PLEASE don’t rent the bikes here! It’s super annoying for the people commuting to/from work and it’s dangerous if you’re not used to that kind of bike traffic!
Thank you for making such a helpful video - Much appreciated :)
good video
pro tip, go visit Gdansk istead
Good ❤
I love Copenhagen!!! Visited there 6 years ago and it taught me what is the smell of marijuana.
Bet you visited Christiania then... ;)
I did but it was downtown by the lake I smelt it. 🤭
Get an inexpensive kebab at Kebabistan. Easily the best kebab I've had in Europe.
Good recommendation
de kommer hjælp os
She didnot count the stay for the hostel atleast 50€ / day stay...
Yes, that's right.
Denmark hotels and cuisine are not worth it. Take the 30 minute train over to Sweden and stay there. Sweden is the epicenter of Scandinavian culture. The people are very hospitable, and everything that a tourist would find intriguing in Denmark, you will certainly find in Sweden at a sane, reasonable cost. I absolutely love Sweden. Denmark has priced itself out of viability except for a day trip.
Very good nice
Sorry is beautiful🎉
I would love to use a bike with a big seat to get around with
It's Copenhagen not MOSCOW
It's not burning Moscow it's just Copenhagen 😢
