The Little Mermaid and Copenhagen Harbor

Join our Harbor Free Walking Tour to the Little Mermaid and explore Copenhagen’s waterfront in 2.5 hours of history, culture, and fairytales. Highlights include the Opera House, Amalie Gardens, the star-shaped Kastellet fortress, the Gefion Fountain, and Nyboder, the neighborhood built for sailors in the 1600s. Along the way you’ll hear about Denmark’s colonial past, the rebel Queen Mary Thomas, and the stories behind the Little Mermaid before finishing in the King’s Garden by the statue of Hans Christian Andersen. We are Copenhagen’s oldest free tour company, with the most reviews and the most experienced guides.
