Rønne, North Around Bornholm to Svaneke and Back via Almindingen
Beautiful round tour on the sunny island of Bornholm to the most beautiful places.
We drive along the coastal road north around the island and all the way to Svaneke. The most beautiful drive with sea view and a visit to the 3 picturesque towns of Allinge, Gudhjem and Svaneke.
The 3 towns are charming and perfect for a stroll through the beautiful and pleasant streets. On the way to the north of Bornholm we visit the Hammershus castle ruin and the new welcome center. I reveal the castle's secrets through history till today.
Between Allinge and Gudhjem you have an opportunity to visit the Art Museum in Rø or hike to the cliffs Helligdomsklipperne. After a detour to the island's largest Round Church in Østerlars I suggest a visit to the "Baltic Sea glass" a glassblower between Gudhjem and Svaneke. A visit to a glassblower is a "must" to complete your visit on Bornholm.
Bornholm is known for its smoked herrings and in Allinge you have an opportunity to have lunch at the lokal smoke house. If you have not yet tasted a freshly smoked herring this is the right place to do so.
If your group is larger than 8 Guideservice Denmark has to prebook for lunch so please let us know in advance if you need this service.

Aars – The Capital of Vesthimmerland in Jutland
A visit to Aars starts just outside the town at the Borremose fortress. Around here, almost everything started.
You could sail to the fortress. You could travel from here to the rest of the world.
After our visit to the Borremose Fortress, we taker a short drive to be able to visit Aars by foot. I will tell you about the past, about art and about present day Aars.
The artist Per Kirkeby has left his mark on Aars. As Aars is best experienced by foot, we will walk a distance of approximately 3 km from the Museum of Contemporary Art to Vesthimmerland's museum. I will make sure you see Per Kirkeby's buildings and get a hang of what life in Aars is like. The museums provide insight into much of the area's development. From one of Denmark's largest finds, the Gundestrup cauldron to the most common pieces of our time.

Vikings in Copenhagen, Lejre, Roskilde
One of the things that people associate the most with Denmark is the ferocious Viking warriors familiar from films and fiction. However truth is often stranger than fiction and this tour will show you who the people known as the Vikings really were and what the truth is that lies behind these stories.
On this tour you will join a guide with huge interest in the Vikings who will take you on a journey through the mythology and lifestyle of these fearsome people.

Food and good stories in and around Jelling
The tour focusing on food and the good stories is a guided bus tour starting in Vejle, from where we drive towards Jelling. We can of course start somewhere else according to your choice.
We visit a traditional old grocery store which is now also a museum. If you are into nostalgia, be sure to make a few purchases at the counter. It's hard not to.
We carry on to the beautiful Nørup Church, an old medieval church restored to its present day's unique look with a Russian style onion dome, which is very unusual for a Danish church.
From Nørup church we go to the UNESCO World Heritage site at Jelling. See the large runic stone where king Harald Bluetooth in the year 965 claimed that he made the Danes Christian. The runic stone is said to hold the birth certificate of Denmark as a nation.
We end our morning with a delicious Viking lunch in one of Jelling's nice cafes, known for its locally produced, high quality food and drink. We might be able to listen a story by the proprietor while having lunch.
After lunch you will have time to enjoy the historic experience centre Kongernes Jelling, Royal Jelling, before we head back to Vejle.

Three Palaces in North Zealand
Guided coach tour from Copenhagen to three royal gems in North Zealand: Kronborg, Frederiksborg, and Fredensborg Palace
Transport is needed for longer tours
If you want to go further than your feet can take you a coach or a car is the right form of transport. This is a fine choice if you have a group and you want to share a guide.
When you go exploring by coach or car, the guide makes sure that you make some strategically good stops. The right stops for stories to be told and sometimes also opportions for comfort stops. When you choose to go by coach, you can reach further and if some in the group are not good walkers you can also spare your legs.
Cars and drivers
There are strict regulations as to who are allowed to as professional drivers of coaches and cars with paying clients. Therefore we recommend that you book a coach or driver. We can provide a few guides with professional driving licences. However, the car must be rented, and sometimes it is cheaper to rent a minibus with a driver than a car. It depends on the size of the car or the rental company. If you rent the coach, diesel or electricity is included, petrol will not be for the car.
We are happy to help you book a coach or rent a car. We comply with Danish legislation regarding professionals driving licenses. Therefore, only a few are driver guides. The vast majority stick to guiding only and letting a driver manage the wheel in the car or coach.
Coach tours all around Denmark
You can go on a guided tour by coach or car throughout Denmark. This means that you can spend the night in, for example, Copenhagen and from there drive to North Zealand to enjoy the royal castles. You can also drive south to experience that part of Zealand. There are many beautiful places to explore, and once the guide shares the stories, a place usually becomes much more enticing than experiencing it on your own.
You can also go on a tour around Funen and stop in some of the beautiful market and coastal towns or visit Egeskov Castle or some of the many beautiful places in Funen. The Funen guides will be happy to talk about and show off their favorite island in Denmark.
If you are on holiday in Jutland, the distances immediately become longer. That is if you want to drive all the way from south to north. However, there is no reason for that, because even small distances reveal great variety in Jutland. You can explore beautiful and charming cities, Ice Age landscapes, forest or heath - and also the coast all around our country, which is great to explore in itself.
We are happy to say visit Denmark with Guide Service Denmark on a tour by coach, car and our Danish guide services.
