Tour description
Odense is Denmark's third-largest city and the birthplace of the world's most famous storyteller, Hans Christian Andersen. A charming city with a fairy-tale old town of cobbled lanes and colourful half-timbered houses, it is a delight to explore. On this walking tour a local guide reveals its heritage.
You will wander the old town where Andersen grew up, see the great cathedral, and hear about the fairy tales and Danish history. Along the way you will discover the charming lanes of the city. Charming and storybook-like, Odense is a wonderful city to explore on foot.
