Helsingør, Lund & Malmö Day Tour from Copenhagen
This comprehensive day tour takes you across Denmark and Sweden to explore three fascinating destinations in a single trip. Starting from central Copenhagen, you'll travel in comfort aboard a modern air-conditioned coach to discover the maritime heritage of Helsingør, the university charm of Lund, and the cosmopolitan atmosphere of Malmö.
Your first stop is Helsingør, home to the famous Kronborg Castle, which served as the setting for Shakespeare's Hamlet. The town's well-preserved harbour and Maritime Museum reveal centuries of seafaring tradition, whilst the cobbled streets and atmospheric town centre offer plenty to explore. From here, you'll board a ferry across the Øresund Strait to Sweden, enjoying scenic views during the short but memorable crossing.
In Lund, you'll have time to visit the striking cathedral dating from 1145 with its famous astronomical clock, stroll through Lundagård Park, or explore the university atmosphere that gives this city its character. The final destination is Malmö, Sweden's third-largest city, where you can wander the lively squares of Stortorget and Lilla Torg, browse shops along Södergatan, or admire the blend of medieval Malmöhus Castle with modern architecture like the Turning Torso skyscraper.
