This 3-hour walking food tour moves at a relaxed, local pace, alternating between savory bites, sweets, and drinks. Portions are shared in the Danish way, allowing you to taste broadly without rushing or overfilling. The rhythm mirrors how locals snack, lunch, and linger across the city center.
The tour begins inside Copenhagen’s central food halls with classic smørrebrød, then continues nearby with a second take on these open-faced sandwiches, highlighting how small changes in toppings and preparation shape modern Danish cooking. From there, the focus shifts gently toward sweet flavors with traditional hard candies and a historic pastry stop, where flaky dough and warm spices take center stage. Street food comes next with a simple but iconic organic hot dog, before the walk winds down in a historic pub. Here, you’ll enjoy a local beer or non-alcoholic alternative, rounding out the tour the way many Copenhageners do: seated, unhurried, and in good company.
