Think you now Christmas? Think again
Everybody knows Christmas Elfs, Nisser in Danish, and Santas helpers in English, but did you know they are ancient old Scandinavian house Gods called Vætter? Or that the traditionel Danish Christmas binge drinking and eating has its roots in old Nordic (Pagan) traditions of Yule?
Our Walking Christmas Tour
Enjoy the illuminated old city of Copenhagen as you learn about (Danish) Christmas traditions, old as well as new ones. You’ll experience Danish hygge as we walk, talk and taste our way though this brief crash-course in Danish Christmas. By tastings we mean a bit of (home-made) glögg and Christmas cookies.
We will also narrate the story of the Christmas Rose by Selma Lagerlöf.
We cannot guarantee that you will be in Christmas mood after this tour, but we will be disappointed you Christmas mood haven’t improved – even if your name is Ebenezer Scrooge.
