leen50 Posted April 23, 2014 #1677 Share Posted April 23, 2014 Hello Danish Viking, Thank you for all of your wonderful advice. We are arriving on NCL Star, May 19 at the new dock. We are renting a Hertz car at Ved Vesterport 3, 1612 Copenhagen. Our daughter lives in Aarhus & we will be driving there & staying for 1 week. How expensive will a Taxi (approx.) be from the dock to the Hertz agency? Is there another way to get there? Thanks, any info would be helpful. -Arleen, from Texas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Al B. Posted April 23, 2014 #1679 Share Posted April 23, 2014 FYI, I received email confirmation from Stromma that there will be hop-on hop-off buses at the Oceankaj C330 when the Eurodam is there June 3. I'm thinking it is a shuttle type service that takes you to one of the regular stops. They said there is a bit of difference between the red and green buses, but I haven't been able to check that out yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, any info would be helpful. -Arleen, from Texas A taxi will probably be in the 200 kroner range. Else you can take bus 26 to Østerport station and then take a southbound S-train towards Køge, Solrød Strand, Hundige, Høje Taastrup, Ballerup or Frederikssund. Then you get off the train 2 stop later at Vesterport Station, the car rental is located just across the street from the main station entrance. If you want to drive as little as possible you can take a direct ferry from Odden to Aarhus. The trip takes 70 minutes. There are no low price tickets for the 07:30 and 08:30 departures but they are probably also to early in the morning. 12:15 and 13:15 is 349 kroner 15:45 and 17:45 is 399 kroner 19:15 is 299 kroner http://www.mols-linien.dk/?gclid=CMrRgqel970CFUHecgodgaoAcg The price to cross the Storebælt bridge is 235 kroner.

It shouldn´t be a problem to get taxis from the airport and cruise terminal. At the hotel they are not readily available but you can get them to call one but that is however 13 kroner more expensive or you can get one at the nearby central station.

Danish viking Posted April 24, 2014 Author #1690 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Route to the ferry port in Odden, travel time around 1 hour and 20 minutes. Check in time is 10 minutes before departure and as i told a crossing time of 70 minutes. But its probably best to drive 30 minutes before so you don´t get surprised by anything. So the minimum travel time is 2 hours and 40 minutes + travel time from the port in Aarhus. https://www.google.dk/maps/dir/Ved+Vesterport,+1612+K%C3%B8benhavn/Odden+Ferry+Harbor/@55.8010677,11.3823586,9z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m14!4m13!1m5!1m1!1s0x4652530c65824c13:0x2cc50d715a80fe45!2m2!1d12.5616212!2d55.6750291!1m5!1m1!1s0x464d9392b242af0f:0x7f861298499e8a1a!2m2!1d11.301053!2d55.976309!3e0 Travel direction via the Storebælt bridge, the normal travel time is around 3 hours but there are as indicated on the map major roadworks at Køge Bugt Motorway and the Fynsmotorway where the speed limit is lowered from 110 to 80 and 130 to 80 km/h. https://www.google.dk/maps/dir/Ved+Vesterport,+1612+K%C3%B8benhavn/Aarhus+C,+Aarhus/@55.727786,9.9589339,8z/data=!4m15!4m14!1m5!1m1!1s0x4652530c65824c13:0x2cc50d715a80fe45!2m2!1d12.5616212!2d55.6750291!1m5!1m1!1s0x464db218d41dad57:0x9a3cb68ab7bfa1c6!2m2!1d10.202726!2d56.1460465!3e0!5i1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ted&Elle Posted April 25, 2014 #1692 Share Posted April 25, 2014 (edited) Danish Viking, thanks for your continued presence in this forum. I'm not sure I'd have the stamina to keep responding so quickly for months and years on end. Reading through many pages of posts, it seems like the current best way to get to the new pier on Wed, 28 May is going to be on the #26 bus. My wife and I are renting a flat right around the corner from Forum metro station in Frederiksberg. It seems like the best route would be to take the metro to Kongens Nytorv and then wait for the #26 there. I'm also assuming the #26 bus isn't going to have a problem with two tourists taking our overpacked suitcases on the bus, right? Also, just to be sure I'm reading it right, it will be about 15 degrees during late May, correct? It's hard to imagine it being that cool since it will be in the 30s here in Arkansas by May and will reach 40 or more during the hottest days of the summer. Thanks again for your continued participation. Thanks also to the others who help but aren't quite as prolific as DV :-) Ted&Elle Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD Edited April 25, 2014 by Ted&Elle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MATHA531 Posted April 25, 2014 #1693 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I am sure somewhere here there is an answer to this but I can't find it so I apologize Danish Viking and I really thank you for your kind and patient answers to all of our questions. Now I think I've figured it out as far as my day before my cruise in Copenhagen from the time I arrive around 1300 for the rest of that day including checking in to the hotel to the Little Mermaid to Tivoli and back to the hotel. Also the day of the cruise via Metro and bus #26. The question is the return date which is Sunday when bus #26 does not go to the new ferry terminal. Google earth suggests a 39 minute walk of 3.1 km to catch some conveyance to the airport. What do you suggest is the best way to get to the airport via public transport with as little walking as possible (I am mobile enough to walk 4 or 5 blocks pushing my suit case but really not all that much more.) A 3 km walk is out of the question. Your suggestion for the cheapest way to get to the airport from the cruise terminal, the new one, will be appreciated (yes I know I can fall back on a taxi somewhere and/or the cruise line transfer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hotlady29 Posted April 27, 2014 #1698 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Hello Danish Viking We will be arriving in Copenhagen on the 26th May at 15.00 and departing on the 27th May at 16.00. Have thought that would go to Tivoli Gardens and have a look round on the first evening. Any suggestions on the best way to get there? Also would else would you recommend that we see whilst we are there? Think that we would probably pass the Little Mermaid if we were walking from the pier towards town but don't know where we are docking. We are arriving on Celebrity Eclipse. Many thanks Elaine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danish viking Posted April 27, 2014 Author #1699 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Your ship is docked at Langeliniekaj so your ships is docked just next to The Little Mermaid. Bus 26 will get you directly to Tivoli so that is probably the easiest way to get there. Now I'm just namedropping but things to see in Copenhagen are the royal residence at Ammalienborg Palace (change of the guard at noon), Rosenborg Palace with the crown jewels, Nyhavn and a canal tour, Christiansborg (the parliament). Also Copenhagen Zoo, they will soon get 2 Pandas from China as a gift to the queen. The zoo will be the 5th zoo in Europe with panda bears. The Blue Planet aquarium has hammerhead sharks, how cool is that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trvlbug Posted April 28, 2014 #1700 Share Posted April 28, 2014 First of all Danish Viking thank you so much for all of your help. I know that you must repeat yourself many times but it is very much appreciated. Now after saying that I have a few questions that I hope you can help me with. We arrive in Copenhagen June 16th at 10:25 a.m. and will need to get to the Clarion Mayfair. I understand it is near the central station. Can we get a ticket to there with our luggage and walk to the hotel? On the 18th we will have to get to our ship Legend of the Seas (not sure where the port is) but wondering if we should take a taxi or the train? My last question is in regards to the Copenhagen card. We will be walking most everywhere except for the trip from the airport to the hotel and hotel to the ship. We will enter Tivoli gardens and also doing a Nyhaven canal tour. So is the card cost effective for us or no? Thank you so much for taking the time to answer. Trish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
