The experience

Copenhagen’s original food tour, running since 2011, tasting Danish classics across several stops.

A local guide leads the group through a sequence of tastings built around Danish staples: smorrebrod (open-faced rye sandwiches), local cheeses, pastries and other specialities, each explained in its proper culinary and historical context rather than served as a generic sampler.

As one of the longest-running food tours in the city, the route and stops have been refined over more than a decade, favouring genuinely representative Danish producers over tourist-menu substitutes.
