Denmark: Copenhagen and nearby isles, by bicycle
It’s no accident Egeskov Castle was built in the middle of a lake atop thousands of oak pilings in the 16th century:The water was intended to deter outsiders, though these days it has the opposite effect.
The castle, fishing villages, Viking ships, the real Little Mermaid and other attractions are part of an eight-day bicycle tour of Copenhagen and the Danish isles. Suitable for families, the trip begins and ends in the capital with nights spent in Helsingor, Svendborg and Faaborg. Participants pedal past fishing villages and farmhouses with stops at the Viking Ship Museum, Aero Island and more.
Date: Trips depart June 23 and July 28.
Price: $3,998 a person, double occupancy; $3,598 for first child, $3,198 for second child. Single supplement. Price includes hotels, breakfast and dinner each day, excursions, guides, bicycles and related equipment (helmets, etc.) and support vehicles. Airfare is not included.
