How many train stubs does it take to go from Copehagen to Roskilde, and do you have to stub it again when you get to Central station?

We are 10 adults arriving Copenhagen 19.8.08 by cruise ship and require a driver in a mini van to seat 10 persons. We would like to hire the driver and mini van for approximately 6 hours and to be taken around the sites of Copenhagen and nearby Hamlet.
Please advise the cost of hiring a driver and minivan for 10 persons for sightseeing 6 hours 19.8.08.

Hello everyone.
I've been invited to visit Copenhagen in 2 weeks time. I will be staying for about 4 days. Could anyone advise me how to make the most of my short stay? I obviously won't be able to see/do it all in just a long weekend. What I would like, therefore, is for someone to help me complete my list of "essential" Copenhagen :

Don't leave Copenhagen until you have seen/done the following things:
1.


Many thanks in advance for your help,

PS This will be my second time in Scandinavia. Recently I visited Stockholm. I liked it so much that I'm coming back to Scandinavia for more :-))
For my Stockholm holiday photos, see here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/24361679@N03/sets/72157604080415724

does anybody know any beautiful landmarks to visit by car on the way from Hamburg Germany to Copenhagen, Denmark

I have two questions:
-for how many zones do I need to buy the metro ticket from the airport to the city centre (Islands Brygge)
-where can I find the timetables and prices for busses/trains from Copenhagen to Malmö and Lund

Please help me to get the info about the ferry to get from Germany to Denmark. What is the web site? What are the prices, duration of a ride, opening hours? Any peculiarities?
Many thanks in advance!

My wife and I (mid-50s) are about to book a two-week North Cape cruise in mid-to-late June, 2008 which ends in Copenhagen. As we're traveling on airline miles, we are stuck in CPH because of free seat shortages for an unnecessary two days, 6/24/-26/08. Yet, we've already been there two years ago for 4 days, stayed near Nyhavn and saw most major tourist sites, including a train trip north and back to Helsingfors, Frydensborg and the like.

Where can we stay at reasonable cost (near Nyhavn, Amalienborg or the port) and what side trips can we take to fill up our extra two days? Thanks, Henry.

Hello everybody !

I'm planning the next trip (Copenhagen and Malmo, May 2008) and I know that the
"Around the sound" ticket (valid for 48 hours) is a good choice in order to visit some locations in the Skåne/Oresund area.
I know exactly what can I do with this ticket and the main crossing condition (one way Oresund bridge / one way ferry to/from Helsingborg to/from Helsingør); my question is about the price (I will buy it in Copenhagen). I know that it's a Skånetrafiken offer (I think it's more valuable than a CHP card), but official information isn't quite clear : "Tickets can be bought in connection with airfare booking starting at 249 SEK (approx. 27 EUR) or at the Copenhagen Tourist Information, Denmark and at any ticket counters operated by Skånetrafiken, starting at 199 SKK".
So, please tell me how much is this ticket in Copenhagen ? Are there (airport/Tourist Information) Skånetrafiken counters ? Can I buy it in Swedish currency ?

Thank you very much in advance.

Hi. I will be in Amsterdam and Copenhagen, each for the first time, in June. I'm a 50 year old male
looking for a local VT to chat with while there. However, I do not drink or smoke!

looking for a quiet off-the-beaten-path hotel in Copenhagen for June 2008. I dont need to be on top
of the Red Light, and I like to walk 20 minutes or so to the downtown. Private bath, solid walls; who could ask for anything more?! no hostels! I can pay 100 Euro and up. thanks for your help.

is this a quiet hotel? alot of street noise? I assume this place is Not near the
Red Light District. are the walls paper-thin? and can I ask you how much you
paid, if you don't mind? thank you.

this may sound silly, but you had a private bath/toilet? I need a quiet place to sleep; was there street noise? paper-thin walls? This place sounds like it was far away from the noisy Red Light District (that's
good). I like to walk, so I don't mind the 20 min. walk to downtown at all. what was the price, if you don't mind if I ask? thank you.

is there a private bath/toilet in each room? is this near the Red Light District? is there a lot
of noise from the street at night? are the walls as thin as cardboard? in other words, is this
a quiet place to get a good night's sleep? and how much did you pay per night, and in which
month and year? thank you for your help.

which airlines offer a direct flight from Amsterdam to Copenhagen? I am not interested in laying over
in Munich or any place else. Thank you.

Does anyone know how much the cab fare is from the cruise terminal to the airport? Also, how long is the ride & is there a better method to get to the airport? Since I did not book my cruise with my airfare, there is no shuttle offered.

Can anyone say if this is possible? I would like to buy a round trip ticket to Helsinki from US but stop over in Copenhagen for about 15 days before continuing to Helsinki. I would want to fly home from Helsinki back to US. Will the airlines arrange a round trip ticket with a stopever such as this?

We are a group of 6 arriving in Copenhagen at the end of August to take a cruise. We are arriving a day early and need transportation from the airport to our hotel. Also will need transportaion from hotel to cruise port and from port to airport. Is there any shuttle service that can accomodate 6 people with luggage available? We have 2 people that have some medical problems so they would not be able to pull their luggage for long distances so I am not sure that we could use the train unless the train station is very close to where we get our luggage at the airport. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I'm arriving Sunday, April 6th, early in the morning and want to hit the ground running. I am coming for work Monday - Wednesday but will have time to sightsee on Sunday and possibly in the evenings the rest of my visit. I don't know if my Danish colleagues have any plans for me during the week so I wouldn't know until last minute if the evenings are open. Sunday is wide open from about mid-morning. First time there so want to do the typical sightseeing on Sunday and have already done much research. Any locals interested in tagging along / giving an introduction to Copenhagen?

Cachaseiro if you are reading this and have time, I would take up your offer for a beer or two.

We will be in Copenhagen for 10 hours in August and will have our 8 year old grandson with us and would like to take him where he can have some fun...thank you for your help

My daughter and I were thinking of travelling by train from Copenhagen to Malmo one way and then after a day in Malmo travelling by train from Malmo to Stockholm on a Norway Sweden Saver Pass as we are going onto Norway after Stockholm. Is this the cheapest and easiest way ?

Hey, I really need an answer for this this question. I hope someone can help me!

Is there any age limit in Loppen?

I really need to know before I buy tickets.

Hi there,

I am planning to travel to Copenhagen from Stockholm by train via this site http://www.sj.se/sj/jsp/polopoly.jsp?d=10&l=en

Which station should I arrive at Copenhagen? There's Kobenhavn H and Kobenhavns Lufthavn/Kastrup? Which is closer or more convenience to town? Please advice. Thanks.

Hi there,

I'll be traveling to Copenhagen with my wife on April 2008. I'll be coming in from Stockholm and thinking of staying in Copenhagen for around 4-5 days. Does anyone knows the minimum days you need to explore Copenhagen? Is 4 or 5 days enough?

I've not confirmed any acommodation and can anyone advice on any cheap/budget stays in Copenhagen? I am looking for a double private room (Whether 1 or 2 stars hotel or hostel or B&B).

This will be my 1st time traveling to Copenhagen. Any suggested itinerary or any not-to-be missed places to visit? How about getting around Copenhagen? Do I need to buy the Copenhagen Card or any multi-passes for the public transport? What's the best way to explore the city? I've heard people said by foot or bicycle is one of the best way to explore the city.

Any advice and suggestion will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!!

Regards,
Lim

Hi everyone, my husband and I are arriving in Copenhagen at 7am on Wed, May 28th. We are thinking that we would rent a car and drive north to see the countryside and some of the castles. We also thought it would be nice to stay in a B&B...perhaps a cottage, farm or castle.
We then anticipate heading back down to Copenhagen the next day and spending the balance of Thurs/Fri in Copenhagen. (Our ship departs late afternoon on Friday.)
Can anyone make some suggestions of where to stay and what to see with the little time that we have? We are huge photographers and love castles!
As a side note, does anyone know how warm it will be?

Thanks for any help or suggestions!

Hey all! I'm a 23 yr old guy. I'll be in Copenhagen from 12 mar - 15 mar. I'm going by myself before meeting some friends in paris.

Just curious if anyone has time to meet up and/or show me around. I'm pretty laid back and have zero expectations other than just wander around. Thanks!!

I am looking for a Mexican restaurant that may be owned by a Canadian.

The restaurant is unique in that certain tables have a draught tower in the centre and you can pour your own beer and pay for the amount you have drunk when finished.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Not happy with breakfast not being included at the Marriot. Any suggestions for breakfast or for that matter other meals near the Marriot. Would like to even try eating at a nearby bed and breakfast or hotel that would offer a deal for breakfast only. Already locked in to the Marriot thru a Priceline bid but again deal does not include breakfast and charge at Marriot for breakfast in my opinion is excessive.
