Solve the Missing Crown Jewels in Copenhagen’s King’s Garden with a smartphone game. Flat walk, team play, statues, and light brain puzzles.

“Det var elendigt. Har prøvet tilsvarende i både Hamburg og Amsterdam, hvor man kom rundt i byerne og så forskellige seværdigheder. Her var man kun i parken. Man skulle på det nærmeste kende parken, for at kunne finde rundt. Der var ingen guidning. Helt igennem skuffende. Kan absolut ikke anbefales.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 8 reviews · 3h 30m · from $213

Treasure hunt on private e-bikes across Greater Copenhagen to meet four Thomas Dambo giants and learn how scrap art is built.

“We thoroughly enjoyed riding on the outskirts of Copenhagen and meeting three of Thomas Dumbos giants. The bikes were good. The timing itself felt rushed - we and others in the group would have enjoyed a quick coffee stop, and a bit slower return ride - it was rushed.”

Self Guided Treasure Hunt and Sightseeing Tour in Copenhagen

7.Self Guided Treasure Hunt and Sightseeing Tour in Copenhagen

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 5 reviews · 2 to 3 hours (approx.) · from $63

Self-guided Copenhagen treasure hunt with puzzles and city sights, from Tivoli to Strøget and Christiansborg, in 2 to 3 hours for up to 4.

“A really fun way to explore Copenhagen. The clues were just challenging enough and the children (9 and 12) enjoyed taking the lead with directing us around the city. Led to a couple of hidden gems that we would probably not have found without it! We did it over 2 days because we had something else booked and that worked just as well - allow 2-4 hours, depending on how much you want to stop/enjoy the sights along the way. We had the Copenhagen card so it didn't cost us anything extra. Would definitely recommend if you are exploring the city with pre-teens.”
