BOOKING PERKS

  • Is Copenhagen safe to visit?

    Copenhagen is generally very safe for visitors. The city has a low crime rate and is known for its friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Petty crime such as pickpocketing is rare but can occur, particularly in crowded tourist areas. Keeping your belongings secure and being aware of your surroundings can help mitigate these risks.

    Public transport, including buses and trains, is safe and reliable. However, it's wise to be cautious of your belongings during peak hours or in less crowded areas. Some areas may be less populated late at night, so it's best to stay in well-lit and populated areas if you're out after dark.

  • Is Copenhagen LGBTQ+ friendly?

    Yes, Copenhagen is very LGBTQ+ friendly. The city is known for its inclusive and supportive atmosphere. Copenhagen boasts a lively LGBTQ+ community with numerous bars, clubs, and venues catering to diverse interests. Areas like Vesterbro are particularly popular.

Copenhagen's public transport is efficient, and considerate behavior is appreciated. Follow cycling rules as Copenhagen is a bike-friendly city. Use bike lanes and signal your turns. Avoid walking in bike lanes to prevent accidents.

    Adhere to local recycling practices by sorting your waste according to the city's recycling system. Copenhagen places high importance on environmental sustainability. Be mindful of restaurant and café etiquette by making reservations in advance if necessary and following local dining customs, such as tipping around 5-10% in restaurants.
