The Little Mermaid is one of Copenhagen’s best-known sights. But the walk to her is every bit as interesting as meeting the heroine of Hans Christian Andersen’s fairy tale.

We will meet in picturesque Nyhavn, walk past its colourful houses and follow the waterfront towards royal palaces, beautiful fountains and an old fortress.
