Copenhagen Shore Excursions

Little Mermaid doorstep attraction (easy walk or less than 5mile-8km taxi/bus ride from port) Little Mermaid The small iconic Copenhagen Little Mermaid statue sits on a rock by the Langelinie shoreline. The sculpture, based on a character in a fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen, was created by Edvard Eriksen in 1913. Since then she’s been damaged by vandals several times, including decapitation, amputation and being blasted off her rock by dynamite, but the original mold still exists, and repairs are painstakingly made.

Amalienborg Palace doorstep attraction (easy walk or less than 5mile-8km taxi/bus ride from port) Amalienborg Palace Amalienborg Palace is made up of four almost identical rococo palaces arranged around an octagonal courtyard. The palaces were originally owned by different branches of the nobility, but were all purchased by the royal family after a great fire razed the royal Christiansborg Palace. If the royal family is in residence, see the changing of the guard ceremony at 12 noon.
