Marvel at the Majestic Marble Church in Copenhagen – A Stunning Architectural Gem in the Heart of the City

Experience the best of the city with a local host on this intermediate-level combined walking and canal tour by Go Like a Local. Discover top sights, hidden gems & enjoy a 25-minute harbor ferry ride, ending with the Changing of the Guards at the royal palace. Note: This walking tour requires a steady pace and is not suitable for those with walking difficulties. We begin with a 1-hour walk before boarding the electric harbor ferry, (if it´s not full). Your host shares stories, and tips as we glide through the city’s waterways. After the ferry, we continue on foot, passing the 1600s fortress and the Little Mermaid. A short café stop offers time to rest before reaching Amalienborg Palace. The 9:00 & 09:30 AM tours finish with the full Changing of the Guards at noon. Later departures include a smaller version of the ceremony. If the ferry is full or out of service (rare, mostly weekends), we follow the scenic canal route on foot instead, covering the full itinerary with 2 extra km.

Portions are shared in the Danish way, allowing you to taste broadly without rushing or overfilling. The rhythm mirrors how locals snack, lunch, and linger across the city center. The tour begins inside Copenhagen’s central food halls with classic smørrebrød, then continues nearby with a second take on these open-faced sandwiches, highlighting how small changes in toppings and preparation shape modern Danish cooking. From there, the focus shifts gently toward sweet flavors with traditional hard candies and a historic pastry stop, where flaky dough and warm spices take center stage. Street food comes next with a simple but iconic organic hot dog, before the walk winds down in a historic pub.
