What travelers are saying

"Our family of four, including two adult children, took the Bicycling: Day Trips to Paradise in Canada. This trip is entirely outsourced to the owners of the inn, there are no Road Scholar employees involved in the trip. Two of us have taken bicycle trips all over the world and the bicycling component of this trip was disorganized, haphazard and almost unsafe. We all filled out forms giving details regarding our bicycle fitting months before the trip. On the first day, the leader Stephen, went around the room and asked the same questions and said everyone would get fitted in the morning before we began the first ride. The morning brought a rack of bikes, all different types in various levels of readiness. There were road bikes, hybrid bikes, mountain bikes and e-bikes. The rides were all on paved surfaces and the mountain bikes were heavy and the additional suspension added weight. The bike I received had rust on the chain and rear sprocket. When I asked about it, was told they were waiting for another van to show up with tools and equipment. Once it arrived, they gave me the lubricant to spray on the rust. My wife’s bike would not shift into the high gear on the front sprocket. Instead of adjusting the derailleur, they suggested spraying it with lubricant. Our one son is over six feet and needed a larger frame bike, even though he detailed it in the bike form months ago, there was no bike to fit him. One of the guides, then went home and brought a larger bike that was a full suspension mountain bike for him. The bike was very heavy, hard to control on the road and he felt unsafe. After two days, one of the guides convinced Stephen that they could adjust a hybrid bike to fit him. Clearly there was no work done to prepare the bikes for the trip. Many of the bikes needed adjusting and all needed lubricant to function easily. For every day, there was a tray of snacks placed out for us to take along the ride. None of the bikes had any baskets or attached bags, so if you didn’t bring a small day pack, there was no way to carry the snacks. For lunch on the rides, they brought exactly one sandwich for each rider. Since most of us get hungry while doing a day of exercise, it would have been helpful to have a few extras. On one day, they ran out of sandwiches and one of the leaders that were riding with us did not get lunch. Do NOT take this trip if you are expecting it to be a bicycling trip. We have used VBT and Discovery Bicycle Tours many times over the past 25 years and they are excellent bike tour companies. Lastly, after sharing these details with Road Scholar after the trip, their response was weak at best. After doing the full reviews and having to call them, their response was to give us $200 credit after spending $8000 on this trip. Not only was that insulting, they assumed that I would take another trip with their organization."

What travelers are saying

"This was the first organized tour my husband and I have ever joined, so we were not sure what to expect , but it turned out to be the best vacation we've ever had. The scenery and food were amazing. We stayed in beautiful hotels. Most of the riding was on paved bike paths so we hardly ever had to deal with car traffic. Our leaders, Andrea and Martin, were funny, informative , and so helpful. We are already planning to go back to Italy with VBT this summer."

"We joined the Intrepid “Real Italy Food Tour” and enjoyed it thoroughly. Our tour guide, Micol, was very knowledgeable and provided us with lots of good information. It seems Micol knew many of the staff of the venues we visited, including the pasta making class we attended. Our group of 11 travelers was extremely compatible, which greatly added to the fun and enjoyment."

What travelers are saying

"My wife and I did the six day Lofoten Islands tour offered by 50 Degrees North. The tour is simple, they provided us a rental car, accommodations for two nights each at three Rorbuer hotels scattered across the islands, and a couple of scheduled day tours. Most of the time, we were on our own to see the islands at our own pace. The islands are stunningly beautiful, and the tour planning made our travels hassle free. They even scheduled lunch for us at an organic goat farm, which may sound a little strange for a vacation like this, but that is only because you haven't tasted the cheese. (Best lunch ever!) At our request, they altered the tour slightly so that we could begin the tour in Svolvaer and end it six days later at the airport in Leknes. We can't imagine a more complete tour of the islands in six short days."

Denmark Tour Selection Trips

  • Biking is a way of life in Copenhagen and the bike "highways" get busy. Be sure to stay to the right if you cycle slower than traffic, and remember to be courteous of the Danes going about their commutes!
  • Remember that Copenhagen experiences the midnight sun in the summer and limited sunlight during the winter. While summer sees the country in full bloom, consider a winter visit for adventure in the far North and the magical Christmas season in Copenhagen. 

Additional details

Denmark may be small, but what it lacks in size makes up for in historical triumph and cultural value. With its medieval castles, unspoiled countryside, and exciting attractions, this Scandinavian country is a fairytale destination for any traveler. You will fall in love with the food, become immersed in the Danes “hygge” way of living (that indescribable feeling of cozy contentment from relaxing and sipping that glass of wine with friends), and understand for yourself why Denmark has been voted most liveable city in the world.

When is the Best Time to Visit Denmark?

Summer is a spectacular time to visit Denmark, specifically the months of May through August  when the temperature is warm, days are at their longest, and the countryside is in full bloom. Museums and attractions will be open longer because the sun sets at a later time. You can also enjoy more outdoor travel like kayaking and biking without having to brave the freezing cold.

If you are traveling for the holidays and are looking for a winter wonderland feel, then Denmark is the place to be. This country absolutely loves Christmas. Towns are decked out in decorations throughout November and December and parties are organised months in advance.

If you're there during the first day of November, also known as J Day, bars, pubs and discos will be jam-packed with partiers in elf costumes and Santa hats. On this day at precisely 8:49 PM, the famous brewing company Tuborg releases its annual Christmas beer, known as julebryg,  and the holiday season officially begins.

What to Wear When Visiting Denmark

Depending on what time of year you visit, your attire will vary. Although, no matter what season it is, Denmark's weather can be extremely unpredictable. During summer, the climate is mild so be prepared to layer when the clouds roll in and the sun disappears. Always pack an umbrella and rainboots or waterproof shoes just in case.

For summer, pack active wear for riding bikes and other outdoor activities. Bring light layers like tank tops and sweatshirts. Also include dressy clothes for the lovely restaurants and bars that you visit at night.

During winter you will need heavy coats, beanies, scarves, and gloves. Pack warm layers of clothes and long sleeved cotton or wool tops. It rains heavily during this season and sometimes Denmark will experience snowfall so pack accordingly.

If you forget to pack items do not fret, Denmark is one of the hottest design nations in the world. Strøget, famous for its shopping, is one Europe's longest pedestrian streets. Stretching almost a mile long, it consists of low to high end shops with something for everyone.

Common Countries Also Visited on Denmark Tours:

Denmark is included as one of the four countries that make up Scandinavia, therefore it is common that itineraries will include visits to them as well:

  1. Sweden: Outdoor activities are big in Sweden due to its lush green space. Activities like hiking, biking, cycling, and kayaking are very popular amongst the Swedes. With its’ archipelagos and Northern Lights, Sweden truly is a mystical Nordic destination.

  2. Norway: Beautiful fjords and a sun that doesn't set all summer, known as the “midnight sun”, makes Norway a picture perfect getaway. You will have much more time to visit museums and take part in Norwegian attractions due to the longer days.

  3. Finland: A land of placid lakes, ski resorts, and wild nature to explore. You will meet some of the kindest people here and experience adventure beyond belief.

  4. Iceland: Although Iceland is not considered part of Scandinavia, it is very close geographically and the culture and history are also very similar to that of other scandinavian countries, so you may travel here as well. The lava fields, geysers, volcanoes, hot springs, and giant glaciers make Iceland a remarkable destination.
