Campervan hire Copenhagen - Malmö

Campervan Hire Copenhagen

Copenhagen is a stately port city with colourful canal houses, fabulous architecture and rich history. From the 12th century, Copenhagen became an important trading city and its prosperity was mainly based on fishing. Copenhagen became one of the largest and most prosperous cities in the Nordic countries and retains this status to this day. Walking through the old town, you will come across beautiful buildings such as Rosenborg Castle, the Round Tower and the Royal Danish Library. A typical speciality you will find in Copenhagen is smørrebrød; a bread roll that you can put together with filling yourself.

Getting to Copenhagen

Many roads lead to Copenhagen, including those from other Danish and Swedish cities on the other side of the Sont. The E20 motorway easily brings you to Copenhagen from Odense and from Malmö in Sweden you only have to cross the bridge over the Sont. Copenhagen is also easy to reach by car from Stockholm, although the journey takes 7 hours. Copenhagen's central train station can be reached by direct trains from Odense, and international destinations such as Stockholm (Sweden) and Hamburg (Germany). Copenhagen has a significant international airport, which is only 20 minutes / 10 kilometres outside the city centre. You can easily travel from the airport to Kongens Nytorv central station by metro in 15 minutes.
