There are 3 stops on this full day tour.
The first stop is the ”Fanefjord” Church.
This 14th century church has a unique interior that survived through the Reformation in Denmark in 1536, when almost all Catholic churches had their interiors refurbished to accommodate the Protestant-Lutheran abolition of worshiping saints and a focus on the word, rather than the exterior and religious ceremonies.
Second stop. The rural town of Stege. This is the lunch stop.
Last stop is Mons Klint and the Goecenter.
From the Geocenter to the beach, some 400 steps down. Have a descent to the beach maybe find some fossilized remains of these million year old crustaceans, snails, and octopuses.
For those who are not so agile and adventures the GeoCenter Mon offers the geological history and explanation of the white chalk cliffs.

For lunch, there will be a stop in the largest town on the island of Mon, Stege. In the very Danish rural, small town main street, you can find a variety of lunch options, from classic Danish to more international cousins, while you absorb the local atmosphere of a small rural Danish town. Enjoy a walk around to absorb the atmosphere of summer holiday visitors from around Europe mixed with the locals' busy summer life, all in a setting of a more than 600-year-old town, modernized in the 1800 century but pretty much remained the same layout across the centuries.

The highlight of the tour is the last stop at Mons Klint and Geocenter at the 128-meter-high white chalk cliff created by millions of years of dead sea crustaceans sinking to the bottom of the sea. Then, being compressed, and the entire seafloor was turned 90 degrees to become the amazing Mons Klint of today. Not too fare from the Goecenter is the tiny summer palace: Liselund with is lovely little romantic garden and the tiny summer palace. Worth a stroll if the cliff claiming is not to you linking. Entrance to the palace is rare, and there is no schedule for the opening hours or days. This will all be by chance, but you will surely enjoy the romantic 1700-century garden design. Also, the 400 years old forrest surround the Geocenter, and the Liselund castle is worth a walk in this almost untouched nature.
