Trained as an authorized tourist guide in Copenhagen, and now living in the province gives me a unique opportunity to arrange your tour in Denmark. From my studies in the capital I know most of the strets and the great and secluded places in Copenhagen, but I now consider myself lucky to live in the pensinsula of Jutland in the western part of Denmark. Denmark is the oldest kingdom in the world and here in the area we have some of the most significant proofs on that. The oldest town in Denmark, Ribe from 700 AD and Jelling, the first Unesco World Heritage site in Denmark as well as Christiansfeld, a candidate to become World Heritage. The history of Denmark is important for the way we feel as Danes today. Whereever you are in Denmark, you'll experience stories about the vikings, about our kings over the centuries and you will see beautiful cities, towns and landscapes. I have conducted guided tours in most part of Denmark. In Copenhagen as well as Dragør, the old fishingvillage only 7 miles away from the city as well as to Roskilde with the cathedral and the fascinating vikingships. On Funen to Odense, the birthplace of our great fairytale writer Hans Christian Andersen and to the castle Egeskov, which is almost a fairytale castle. In and around Aarhus with it's fantastic artmuseum, Aros as well as the openair museum Den Gamle By and also to the Lake District and the site of the viking fortress Fyrkat. And my own area with Ribe and Jelling as well as the fantastic ruin castle in Kolding and biking- and walkingtours in the beautiful hilly landscape of Eastern Jutland. So welcome to Denmark; I am looking forward to arranging a tour for you; look at the suggestions on the site and ask for customizing a tour especially for you! I'll be looking forward to tell you these and many other stories. . . . Authorised Tourist Guide Qualified School Teacher - Due to licence and insurance issues I cannot act as driver/guide.

Overview of your Fredericia tour

Jelling was for more than 1000 years ago the center for the rule of the Viking king, Harald Bluetooth. He managed to gather Denmark as one country and to change the country into a Christian one. The town Jelling hosts the magnificent runic stones, burial hills, and stone ship and is the oldest Unesco World Heritage Site in Denmark. Enjoy the area and the exhibition. Also, we will visit the Viking café Sejd in Jelling, where you can buy genuine Viking food. (at your own cost) We go by train to Jelling. This is a beautiful ride through the hilly landscape in East Jutland. We pass under the beautiful Vejle Fjord bridge, drive through the forest and along the fjord and through the scenic valley of Grejs. Also included is a walk on the ramparts of Fredericia. As we walk through the old fortified town, we pass the old town hall and the catholic church from the 1700ds. Sct. Michaelis church is still a garrison church. Our route takes us past the statue of The Brave Soldier on the way back to the p
