“Our 9-hour sojourn on July 16 visiting Kronborg Castle, Louisanna Museum and Viking Ship Meseum was such a rich and fulfilling experience seeing these gems of Denmark, yet almost effortless through the fantastic arrangement of Edgar, our tour guide. He is extremely knowledgeable, and most importantly, his amazing story-telling skills had brought life to the history and joy to his audience.

Review of the private Kronborg Castle tour from Copenhagen, with train details, guide quality, costs, access notes, and practical booking advice.
“This excursion was a highlight of our holiday. Nickolas our guide was amazing. He met us promptly at central railway station and was eager to give us a great day. When he found out we had some personal family history at the castle, he went well beyond his duties to assist us research further details of our family history in the area. He even sourced the local cemetery to find our ancestor's grave site. The castle was amazing and the town of Elsinor is an excellent example of typical Danish town, unlike Copenhagen itself. We highly recommend this private tour. We were treated like VIP's all day.”
