				Don’t pass this up! Sonia was fantastic. Very knowledgeable, helpful, flexible and accommodating. She took us to 5 wonderful places, all which were outstanding. Amount of food was just right and a great balance of fine dining and street food, new Danish and traditional. Highly recommend!

				Great food tour in Copenhagen! Great tour guide (Sonia) and diverse/delicious spots! Sonia was welcoming and shared lots of great information about the city and culture. We all very much enjoyed the food tour. We have gone on several Eating Europe food tours in a variety of cities and Copenhagen is an exciting addition.

				Tasting Copenhagen by Foot Our guide was ready to share and host an easy walking tasting experience in Copenhagen. The meeting place was easy to find and off we went. Sonia knew the area and brought to life historical facts and traditions along our path. She made the tour.

				Excellent Experience This is our third experience with Eating Europe. I cannot express enough about how impressed we are with them. All our guides and food selections have been outstanding. Mark our guide in Copenhagen gave us an exceptional tour that included food which gave a lot of insight into the city and its history. This is the tour to take if you have a limited stay in an European city.

				Delicious and unexpected feast. Mark was excellent! Mark had great enthusiasm and energy, with loads of fun facts about Denmark, Copenhagen -- not just the food. The food we tried was also far from dull. We have been to very many places, and we really enjoyed this tour!

				Recommend this tour! Our family took a food tour with Sonya. We have done tours with this company in Rome and Amsterdam. We enjoyed this one very much! I am only sad we did the tour two days before we leave. We will go back to a couple of the spots we visited during the tour tomorrow though for sure. Sonya is not originally from Denmark but she is extremely knowledgeable about the country and its history. She was fun to walk around the city with and I would recommend this tour!

				Delicious Day My wife and I did the tour in early June and were very pleased as this was our second Eating Europe experience. Sonia was a wonderful guide. She was full of energy and perspective. She had a lot of fun, local information to give us on Denmark as well as context to put everything in so that we could relate as Americans visiting. The group was a great size so we were able to see and get through things in a timely manner and really get our questions handled efficiently. Most of the places we visited were very calm and allowed easy conversation and seating and all of the places had delicious food. We spent the full 3+ hour tour well in my opinion. It was well worth the cost to get such a good sampling from the city along with the history. Overall, it was a wonderful afternoon and experience!

				Tolle Food-Tour durch Kopenhagen Wir hatten eine wunderbare Foodtour mit Marc. Ein toller Einstieg, um eine Stadt zu entdecken! Wir haben nicht nur unterschiedlichste Spezialitäten der Küche probiert, sondern nebenbei auch noch jede Menge über die Stadt erfahren. Von der hippen Location am Ufer bis zum Streetfood war alles spannend und lecker. Klare Empfehlung!

Born in Seattle but a true nomad, I grew up across Africa and Asia, studied in Europe, and worked in the US. Copenhagen has been home for the past 10 years.

I can’t live without Stegt flæsk med persillesovs - crispy pork belly with parsley sauce and potatoes.

In any Copenhagen neighborhood, stop by a butcher, grab a piece of already cooked stegt flæsk to go, find a bench, and repeat in the next neighborhood 🤩

Frequently Asked Questions

What food is Denmark known for?

Denmark has a rich food culture with both traditional and modern influences, but perhaps the most famous is smørrebrød – open-faced sandwiches typically topped with fish, meat, or vegetables. Other well-known favorites include Danish pastries, fresh seafood, and hearty comfort dishes.

Do the tours accommodate vegetarian or gluten-free diets?

All of our food tours are vegetarian friendly. However, it’s important to note that it may not always be possible to serve vegan, gluten-free, or kosher foods at every stop on the tour. Please notify us of any dietary restrictions when booking so we can try to accommodate your needs.

Do you tip in Danish restaurants?

Tipping in Denmark is not expected, as service is already included in restaurant prices by law. If you receive exceptional service, you may choose to round up the bill or leave a small tip, but it is entirely optional. Your tour guide will provide you with all the information you need.

What’s included in the price of the food tour?

All food and drinks are included in the price of the tour.

I’m traveling alone. Do you offer single tickets or just group sales?

We love welcoming solo travelers! All of our tours are open to individual guests.
