    Great guide, poor tour company communication.

    Ambra was amazing!! Knowledgeable and pleasant, great at giving you what you want, chatting all about life in Copenhagen. I can’t speak of her highly enough! Communication from tour company was not great. The Round Tower is closed but they are advertising tours to it. Then I got vague communication about changing to a walking tour, no reply for hours when I questioned them. Finally, the morning of the tour I got confirmation that Rosenborg Castle was indeed part of the tour. It’s the main reason I bought this tour. Very strange experience with the tour company.

    Nice way to spend an hour or so

    We actually did not go in (they were sold out for the day) but toured the outside and the gardens. Nice way to spend an hour or so.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your review! We’re glad to hear that even just exploring the exteriors and gardens made for a pleasant experience. We hope you’ll have the chance to return another time to see the interiors as well — they’re well worth a visit!

    Great views of the city from this historic spot

    The round tower is a 17th century observatory and is a cheap way to see the skyline of Copenhagen. There is a circular winding walkway up to near the top, with the final part a short stretch of stairs to get to the deck to the gorgeous views across the city. A great, short attraction that has a fast queue line and can turn up and pay on the door, no pre booking required.

    Round tower - Bargain viewing platform

    The round tower is absolutely worth a visit. 40DKK was a bargain. The walk on the sloping path is very manageable, with a short flight of stairs at the end. Traffic is managed by a simple light system so the viewing platform Is not overcrowded. There are also three small museum displays on the way up. My adult son is scared of heights but found this manageable as there is no sheer drop at the top. And yes, we could see all the way to Sweden

    Round Tower good views

    Worth a visit and included on the Copenhagen card. To go up the tower you climb a round slope which is quite easy but long. The final part is made of steps controlled by a traffic light system which works well. The views at the top are fantastic and can see 360 views of Copenhagen. Would be lovely on a warm day as was freezing !!

    Round Tower, Rosenborg Castle and Old Town Copenhagen Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Copenhagen.

    How much does Round Tower, Rosenborg Castle and Old Town Copenhagen Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $305 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Copenhagen usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Round Tower, Rosenborg Castle and Old Town Copenhagen Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Copenhagen is not rushed.

    Is Round Tower, Rosenborg Castle and Old Town Copenhagen Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 49 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Copenhagen, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Round Tower, Rosenborg Castle and Old Town Copenhagen Tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Round Tower, Rosenborg Castle and Old Town Copenhagen Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Round Tower, Rosenborg Castle and Old Town Copenhagen Tour?

    +

    Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Copenhagen can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Copenhagen and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Round Tower, Rosenborg Castle and Old Town Copenhagen Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Copenhagen within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Copenhagen?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Copenhagen experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Grand Day Trip around Copenhagen, Copenhagen Walking Tour: Politically Incorrect Intro, Social Sailing - Copenhagen Canal Tour - Captain's Favorite. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Copenhagen?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Copenhagen?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
