Consejos para la ciudad

Cómo moverse

Rent a bike

Having a bike available just make it so much easier to get around. Copenhagen is as you may know built for bikes and for pedestrians, not cars. You can rent a bike all around town, or you can head to Segway Tours Copenhagen at Nikolaj Plads 34 and rent one of their super stylish JOPO bikes or traditional Christiania family bikes.
Cómo moverse

Take metro to and from the airport

Copenhagen is an expensive city and taxi is particularly expensive and not so convenient as you might believe. Copenhagen have a fantastic public transportation network and the metro is no exception with trains every 2nd minute! Enter the metro directly from the airport, it will only set you back DKK36 per person one-way and will in most cases take you close to your home away from home. Just please remember, buy your ticket before boarding the train!
Qué empacar

Don't get stuck with your luggage

No need to get stuck with your luggage while you wait to check in. Copenhagen have plenty of luggage storage services! The one we always recommend is Segway Tours Copenhagen at Nikolaj Plads 34 - they're open from 8.30 am - 5.00 pm every single day, you don't need to reserve in advance and they're located 5 min walk from central metro stations.
