Discover the incredible story of Denmark's famous fairy tale writer. This tour is a day trip in the footsteps of Denmark's famous author. On this tour, we travel to Hans Christian Andersen's idyllic hometown Odense on the island of Funen. Hans Christian Andersen grew up in a poor family in 19th century Odense, but left home at a young age to seek fame and fortune in the Danish capital, Copenhagen. His notion was "first you suffer greatly, and then you become famous" - and this is exactly what happened in his own life. This tour will take you on a journey to explore Hans Christian Andersen's childhood in Odense, a beautiful ancient town which still have traces of Andersen's life and times. We will visit the places were the famous author grew up and explore the parts of his life that inspired his famous stories.
