With Car or Coach

Explore the land of the Vikings on a guided coach tour in the Northwestern part of Jutland.

Take a historic and panoramic coach tour across the land of the Vikings, through the west of Himmerland and crossing the Limfjord. Your will discover many places dating back to the Vikings.

After meeting up, we start with a guided tour of the Borremose Fortress, dating back to the bronze age, approximately 500 B.C. Duration: about 1 hour.

Driving through the moorlands towards Aggersborg, we pass the area where the oldest signs of agriculture in Denmark are found, and where the famous Gundestrup Kettle was discoveres in 1891.

The next stop will be at Aggersborg which is the biggest of a number of the circular Viking fortresses in Denmark. This one was built by one of the last Danish Viking kings Harald Blåtand, Harold Bluetooth, about the year 980 – the very same king who boasted on the Jelling stone about christening the Danes. When at Aggersborg, we will also visit the Aggersborg Church, despite the church being much newer than the fortress.

Next stop is approximately 5 km away in Løgstør. Here we will take lunch – you can bring a packed lunch, or we can order lunch in one of the local restaurants beforehand.

After lunch I do a guided walk in Løgstør, 2-3 kilometres in largely flat terrain. I will tell you about the importance of Løgstør by the Limfjord, and we will take a look at the Frederik the VII Canal. Nearby is a vey interesting museum, the Limfjodsmuseum, dedicated to showing how the Limfjord changed from a slightly brackish sweetwater lake to a saltwater fiord. This happened after a storm when the Noth Sea broke through the isthmus af Thyborøn in 1862 – no more pike or perch, hello to cod and plaice.

The tour continues south by coach and we pass the old Vittskøl monastary on our way back to Års. In Års you can see a lot of works by a contemoprary Danish artist, Per Kirkeby.

If you wish, a visit to the Vesthimmerland Museum can be arranged to end or start the tour.

You can choose to make arrangements for your own coach, or we can book one for you and the tour can start at your hotel instead of Års.

This guided coach tour starts in the port of Rønne and takes us through almost the whole island.

There will be stops and photostops at Hammershus ruin and Østerlars Round Church. You have an opportunity for a bite in Gudhjem and I suggest either a typical smoked herring or a solid soft-ice!

On the tour I will tell you exciting and interesting tales of historical heros and ordinary islanders – from the past and today!

Sturdy shoes are recommended.

Have you ever visited a Danish church and thought "where do those murals come from, and why did they make them in the first place?". Or perhaps you've wondered about why the church is furnished the way it is?

All that and a lot more is what I will show you during this guided tour around churches in Western Funen.

During the tour, you will learn about the similarities and differences between Danish churches. The guided tour will take you through the stories of three pulpits around Middelfart parish that all came from the same pulpit in Odense. You will also learn about mural paintings, just like you will learn about the two noble's coffins in Vejlby church, and who excactly they belong to.

The tour includes a visit to three churches in Western Funen; the churches of Gelsted, Rørup and Vejlby which will be the final stop.

But there is also plenty of room for alterations. So if there is something specific you would like to visit or learn about, feel free to let me know!

We need at coach for this tour so I can guide between the visits to the churches.

Guided coach tour around Funen where you will see the Funen nature with fertile fields, beautiful villages and manors. Funen has a varied and beautiful landscape.

There are so many beautiful places to visit on Funen. Funen has always been very fertile and it still is. The fertility is one of the reasons for the innumerable nursery gardens and manors on Funen. Naturally, we will pass some of these manors. Let me know if you have specific manors you would like to explore and see.

Funen also has varied landscapes with hills and valleys, beautiful villages, forests and coastlines in a comprised area. The Funen Alps might be a must for your tour.

In springtime there are lots of blooming hedges such as lilac and hawthorn. In late summer all the corn fields will be a delight to the eye. 

You can either bring your own coach or you can request Guide Service Denmark to book the coach for you.

Aarhus is one of the oldest cities in Denmark, and at the same time a young city in rapid change. This means that Aarhus is packed with good stories, whether you are interested in the vikings, Aarhus in the Middle Ages or the modern city.  

Aarhus is an interesting city also architecturally, and a guided coach tour, is definitely the easiest way to see it in a short time. We will go by the midieval cathedral, the city hall with its unique architecture from the 1930s, the world renowned ARoS Museum of Modern Art, the ever expanding university of Aarhus and her majesty the Queens summer residence, Marselisborg Palace, the famous Old Town open air museum and lots more!
