Explore all the must-sees of Copenhagen on our most popular 2-hour Guided Segway Tour! The tour also includes a short stop mid-way through at the 'hyggelig' cafe in the Royal Danish Theatre on Kongens Nytorv, where we have some special coffee/cake/drinks offers exclusively to our Segway Cruisers, if you wish to sample some traditional Danish pastries.
Your Segway experience will begin at our waterfront store at Langelinie. Here, we will check you in and train you on our spacious and quiet training ground. Don't worry if you haven't tried a Segway before, it's super easy to learn and most of our guests usually have this down very quickly!
Once you're comfortable, you'll begin the guided tour by cruising along the pier in a no-car zone, it's a great way to take off! On this stretch, you'll see some iconic landmarks such as The Little Mermaid, and there's also an opportunity to have your photo taken with our popular lady of Copenhagen. You'll also see the Royal Opera House, Gefion Fountain, The Royal Playhouse and much more.
Once we reach the colourful Nyhavn, we will continue further into the city where you'll get to visit unique landmarks such as Christianborg Palace (Parliament), but also explore the cosy streets in the latin-quarter and 'straederne', allowing you to get a glimpse into Copenhagen daily life.
After a short stop at the cafe in the Royal Danish Theatre, where you can sample some traditional 'kanelsnurre' from one of the best bakeries in town, we will continue along Kongens Nytorv towards the impressive Marble Church and Amalienborg Palace, where you will drive right up on the Square and see the Royal Guards. We will then head back through Kastellet (The Citadel) where cars are not allowed to drive, giving you a unique perspective of the still-active military site with its red colourful barracks.
You'll definitely be able to test out your (new) Segway skills on this tour, whilst sightseeing Copenhagen in a fun, different and eco-friendly way!
Our tours run with small groups to get the best experience, where there will be plenty of photo opportunities. Alternatively, you can also choose a private tour option if you want a tour exclusively for your group only!
Your Segway Cruise will end back at our store on Langelinie where you'll receive a fun souvenir and you're more than welcome to enjoy a complimentary organic beverage!
This tour is also perfect for shore excursions, not only because of our ideal location for the cruise ships but also because it allows you to see so much of the city when you have limited time to enjoy wonderful Copenhagen!
Don't wait any longer, book your tour now and let's Cruise Copenhagen the Seg-Way!
Discover a land of medieval chateau, ancient monasteries, vineyards and charming villages. A great trip for food and wine buffs, with walking that is gentle to start with and progressing to moderate grade as the week unfolds. Burgundy's natural riches and its complex history bear testimony to its fine heritage. It is a beautiful and fertile land where farmers, foresters, and above all wine growers skills have nurtured the landscape for more than a thousand years. The reputation of Burgundy's cuisine has travelled the world and the very word Burgundy is synonymous with the finest wines. Burgundy is a multifaceted landscape just waiting to be explored, and, as elsewhere in France, the best way to savour it, is to explore on foot its peaceful lanes and byways. Travellers will discover a fabled land of mediaeval chateaux, ancient monasteries and fragrant breezes where the art of living is pursued to near perfection at a gentle unhurried pace. Beaune is the hub of Burgundy’s wine industry, at the heart of a cluster of prestigious vineyards such as the Cote d’Or, Cote de Beaune and Cote de Nuits and is the obvious place to start our trip. The first walking day is just 3 hours on foot to Meursault; a gentle start allowing time to visit the sights in Beaune and sample some wine in the village of Pommard on route. Don’t miss the imposing mansion of the Dukes of Burgundy, the basilica of Notre Dame and the most famous of all the sights in Beaune, the steep pitched patterned roofs of the Hotel Dieu. A circular walk to Saint Romain includes a ruined chateau and a 12th century church as well as some beautiful scenery and a great restaurant for lunch. A steady climb from Meursault, to join the ‘Grande Randonnee’ paths, takes in mature oak forests before descending to the village and stunning chateau of La Rochepot, unfortunately closed at the present time. From there you will be walking on to Nolay, a village of fine mediaeval buildings, narrow streets and half-timbered houses. The second half of the week is a little more taxing and involves walking an average of just over 18km per day and ascents of about 500m climbing onto the escarpment and hilltops for glorious views as far as the Alps. There is still time however to enjoy the delights of Rully, the ancient Chateau of Montaigu, the produce of the Cotes Chalonnaises and many more sleepy hamlets and villages. The landscape is a mix of vineyards on the lower slopes, woodlands on the edge of the plateau, and pastures and arable land above 380m on the plateau. Conditions underfoot are good with many of the tracks through the vineyards surfaced even though there is little or no traffic; lightweight boots are all you will need.
My itinerary was well planned and I think the experience was of good value for money. The variety of accommodations were welcoming and clean. I especially liked the GPX/GPS files on the daily routes. The communications were impeccable. My only request is that the trip package be provided a month prior to the start of the walk. I usually travel to the starting point about a week prior to the commencement of the walk to get over jet lag, etc.

I don't like planning trips and couldn't find a time that worked to travel with a friend, so decided to go on a group tour, and this trip was a great choice! I was really impressed with the organization of the trip, I loved the mix of planned activities and downtime, and I'm really glad I went.

There were so many historical sites and known stops you just read about that were added to this tour. the pace was fast and there was a lot of walking ..it may be hard on an older market as there were steps and inclines but when you do it ,what you see at the end of it all was majestic, memorable and worth it. The breakfast at each hotel was fulfilling and with a wide variety.
The tour guides were knowledgeable and communicated well.

Discover Barletta starting with a visit to the medieval castle of the eleventh century, founded by the Normans and expanded by the Spanish in the sixteenth century.
Among the sculptures preserved in the castle, you can visit the bust of Emperor Frederick II Hohenstaufen of Swabia limestone, dating from the thirteenth century.
Next, visit a historic winery, called the "House of Poison", is the building now known as the "Winery of the Challenge".
It was here that was launched the challenge to a duel from 13 italian knights vs 13 French knights, fought in the countryside of the neighboring town of Trani.
After the winery, you will discover the Cathedral of Santa Maria Maggiore of the twelfth century, the most important church in Barletta.
The cathedral is divided into two parts, the front is typically Romanesque architectural style of the twelfth century, while the final part is of Gothic architectural style of the fourteenth century.
The tour will end with a visit outside the palace of baroque architecture called "Della Marra" with paintings of the painter Giuseppe De Nittis and the visit of the bronze giant named Heraclius next to the Basilica of the Holy Sepulchre.
