Additional Information

With this tour, Ophelia Tours aims to take you to sites rich in history, allowing you to delve into the details without the pressure of rushing to the next attraction.

This tour is designed for those who prefer to spend more time at each location, including slow walkers and those who may use walking aids. We are not in a hurry!

Our guide will lead you through the Roskilde Cathedral, both inside and out, and then give you the freedom to explore on your own and discover what interests you most after the guided tour.

At Frederiksborg Palace, you will have the opportunity to explore independently. Take your time to appreciate the palace, uncover its details, and soak in the historical atmosphere as you wander through both the interior and the baroque garden.

No need for intense cardio workouts on this day. You’ll easily reach 10,000 steps by the end of the day, having climbed spiral staircases in medieval castles and walked along cobblestone streets. But don’t worry, we have plenty of time.
