Highlights

Step into a fairytale and cross international borders on this unforgettable Hamlet & Sweden One-Day Tour from Copenhagen. Travel in comfort aboard a luxury minibus to the charming town of Helsingør (Elsinore), home to the legendary Kronborg Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage Site famously immortalized as Elsinore in Shakespeare’s Hamlet. Wander its historic halls (admission not included) and relive the drama that has captivated audiences for centuries.


Then, enjoy a scenic ferry ride across the Øresund Strait to Sweden. Your first stop is Lund, a picturesque university town known for its medieval cathedral, cobblestone streets, and charming Scandinavian atmosphere. After exploring Lund’s historic center, head to Malmö, a vibrant coastal city blending old-world charm with modern design. Take time to marvel at the Turning Torso skyscraper, stroll through Lilla Torg’s lively square, or shop and dine at your leisure.
