Breathtaking Hamlet's Castle & Sweden: Two-Country Day Trip

The tour was great! Highly recommend! Allen, our guide & driver was very knowledgeable. The trip was well planned and our main stops in Helsingør, Lund and Malmo were well timed! Many thanks from Canada!

I love how Preben kept our tour so well organized! Because we had ferries to catch and allotted times in each city, it was very important to be timely! Further, it was a pleasant surprise to be able to enter into my 39th country via ferry!

If you are pressed for time and love literature and history, this tour is for you. Our guide Mario is an exuberant and knowledgeable presence. You will certainly feel well taken care of. He drove us along the Øresund so we could catch the sights along the way to the Castle. We started the day in Helsingør to visit Hamlet's Castle which is really cool - we got to explore the fort, the crypts and even caught sight of Ophelia's Drowning in the form of a sculpture of a hand reaching up from the water in the moat around the castle. Then it's on a ferry to Sweden. From there, we travelled to Lund where we got to see the Cathedral that survived fire/arson, and walk about the pretty university grounds. You will have time for a spot of lunch here too - and if you like matcha lattes, Too Motch is good. Then it was back on the bus for a trip down to Malmö. We got to see an old functional apothecary that also functions as a modern pharmacy of sorts. Also, to try the Malmö chocolate - very worth the visit, some of the tastiest chocolate I've had! - and walk along the shopping street. Thereafter, on the way back to Copenhagen, we stopped for views of the Øresund bridge and photos. It's very much time compressed, but you will get to hear a lot about the history of the locations and the developing relationship between Denmark and the other Scandinavian countries. Thanks Mario!

The overall experience was great at Kronberg Castle. Next, Passports are required to enter Sweden However, there was a miscommunication with the stay from: Helsingør-Helsingborg . We went over the bridge to Sweden on the ferry. The ferry was very nice with a place to sit inside or outside. It was even 15 minutes once we arrived that our group disappeared. We were left behind without any warning. My friend and I had to find our way back to Copenhagen. No one contacted us to see where we were. No concern for our safety. It was very upsetting!!! We missed seeing LundCastle. Be cautious when you take this tour!!!

Great history of Denmark and Sweden. Covered a lot of areas. Time at each place to look around, take photos, shop and ear.

The driver was actually rude.. he didn’t just ask people to please “be quiet” when he was talking, but he almost yelled at us a few times.. The driver did not give us any idea of what kind of day was in front of us.. No itinerary was shared with the guests on the bus… we just got given a brochure. It was a long long day.. he never shared much history with us, nor set us up for success in the plsces we were dropped. It was his angry temperament that caused me alarm.

Great trip, well organised, tour guide was super nice, worth the price! One note- I was messaged meeting point was in the lobby of Marriott, in fact it was not. It was just a bus waiting in front of the hotel. Gladly Marriott staff helped me to find bus, otherwise I’d wait in this lobby forever

Mario our tour guide was great! Very informative and friendly. Would highly recommend. Many great sites to see. The tour is well worth it

A very good day trip to Swedish town of Lund and malmo. Also, visited hamlet on the way there. A very good plan for entire trip and good introduction on the road.

This is an excellent tour! Andy is a seasoned pro as a tour guide. On the day of our tour, 30 September, you could tell that he wasn't feeling his best, however he was cheerful, knowlegeable, gave a detailed description of each stop that we made. All-in-all, it was a fun tour and money well spent.
