We added a couple of optional activities beyond Louisiana Museum of Modern Art and don't regret it. Good value for what was included, and the food recommendations from our guide were spot on.

Booked this as a family of 4 trip and it was well paced. Amalienborg Palace Museum in particular stood out. A couple of the transfers ran a little late but nothing that spoiled the trip.

Copenhagen is stunning and this package covered the essentials well, especially King's Garden (Kongens Have). The hotel could have been a little closer to the center but transport was easy.
