Danish viking Posted July 7, 2011 #3076 Share Posted July 7, 2011 def. Frederiksborg castle because they have more things on display in the different rooms. Btw. I'm not going on a cruise but camping at the shores of Lake Balaton in Hungary. But i i have a small cruise lasting almost 2 hours between Gedser in Denmark and Rostock in Germany so if anyone is sailing on the Prinsendam, Empress and Azamara Journey at the moment you can say hi to me tomorrow in warnemünde when my ferry pass by around 6:30 pm.

(They accept cards with PIN-code and Euro/Dollars. But the exchange rate is poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ladyofthecanyon Posted July 12, 2011 #3084 Share Posted July 12, 2011 We will be arriving in Copenhagen this Sunday at approximately 7:30 AM. We will be staying at the Radisson Blu Royal Hotel and were wondering is there a Catholic Church in the area and what is the mass schedule. I am assuming that we will not be leaving the airport until around 10 AM. Any help that can be given would be great. LadyoftheCanyon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about the catholic church, but I would email the concierge at the hotel, they are really nice and can probably help you. We just stayed there 2 weeks ago, and they were great for info.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The church is not very close to your hotel but they do have a Sunday morning mass. Some sections of their website are in English, including the service schedule. http://sanktansgar.dk/index.php?id=7&L=1 Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evgal/nj Posted July 18, 2011 #3090 Share Posted July 18, 2011 hpoe you had a wonderful trip. i have read approx 1/2 of this post, i have learned SOOOO much!! thank you. we are 4 seniors , plan to rent an apartment 9/17-9/2011 will be then going on a cruise. i have narrowed down the search. #1 apartment is in orestad, approx 6k from airport #2 apartment is in norrrebro approx 20k from airport i think we will have to take a taxie from the airport b/c of the 4 lg suitcase & a mobility scooter + a wheelchair. do you have an opinion on which would be the better location? both say city central approx 7-10 min by public trasportation are taxies cheaper from airport , since we will also need a taxie to the cruise ship ? i look up private transfer from airport on the denmark travel site you mentioned, it quoted 350us one way to city central! is this what we should expect to pay taxies from the airport to the apt then to the cruise ship? is it easy to get a cabs from the local neighborhoods to get to the cruise ship? thanks for you help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evgal/nj Posted July 18, 2011 #3091 Share Posted July 18, 2011 i sorry i just found my answer on pg 140 somthing lol, i seems the price of 350 us for private transfer is a bit high, after calculating the cost of a cab using the prices you listed. still intereasted in your opinion on the areas the apartments are in i assume the buses are wheelchair friendly, are there elevators to the train platforms @ all staions? are the streets wheelchair friendly? ie curb cuts? really a non issue since i've pushed my dh in greece!! lol thanks again karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danish viking Posted July 18, 2011 #3092 Share Posted July 18, 2011 All busses have wheelchair acces and all train pælatforms have elevators. Nørrebro is sometimes called Nørrebronx so you can guess that it sometimes can be rough but you have to be unlucky to experience any crime. But it is at the same time a very international (read middle eastern) part of the city Ørestad is a new part of the city and there is almost no crime in that area.

Danish viking Posted July 21, 2011 #3094 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Maybe 350 DKK for a trip to the airport is not entirely right, last time i took a taxi home from Copenhagen was with the expensive nigh fares and it ended up with 798 DKK for a 40 km trip. The longest distance from the freeport terminal to the airport is around 18 km using the freeway and by the normal streets (Amagerbrogade or Englandsvej) its only 12 -14 km and shorter if the distance is from Langelinie Pier or downtown instead of the freeport.

The Viking Posted July 21, 2011 #3095 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Thank you. One more question. Is it worth it to get the Copenhagen Card if I do train from the airport to Central Station, Tivoli, the Canal boat ride, The Round Tower, The Resistance Musuem and a copule of bus # 26 rides? SAS use to have promotions where you get one Copenhagen Card when you shsow them copy of your boardingcard from the US. It also has free bus and train rides for 24 or 48 hrs. I do not know if they currently have such aa promotion at this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krisdamom Posted July 23, 2011 #3096 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Dear Viking We are renting a car in Copenhagen & driving to Stege, Isle Moen & then driving from there to Tonder, in So. Jutland; then from Tonder back to Copenhagen. I have 2 questions: Do we need a International Driving Permit? What are the quickest routes between these places? I know some routes involve use of the ferry system but I wonder if those are the quickest. Thank you in advance for your help with this & thank you so much for all of the valuable help you have already provided! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danish viking Posted July 26, 2011 #3100 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Your ship is docked at Langelinie pier together with the Jewel of the seas so you are in walking distance from Nyhavn where you can enjoy the nightlife. Bus number 26 to Kongen Nytorv or a short 30 minute walk will get you there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
