Don’t be in doubt! We present you where it will stay, how you got there and what you should know about your destination before you go.

Hotel

Hostel Generator COPENHAGEN: HOSPEJADE NEAR KONGENS NYTORV SQUARE:

Generator Copenhagen is right in the center of the city, next to Kongens Nytorv Square. Our Copenhagen hotel is a hub for travelers and locals who are drawn to custom-designed furniture and a wide culture of bars and cafes. Whether you’re looking for sleek Danish design, minimal Nordic fashion, or the cleverly innovative Scandinavian food scene, you’ll find it all in Copenhagen. Tim Bjorn’s illustrations, intricate lighting, seating areas, and large outdoor terrace make our budget Copenhagen hotel a true oasis in the heart of the city. And that’s not all; we have the largest shuffleboard center in Copenhagen and a boules court if you’re feeling competitive. When the games are over, head to the hostel bar for a cocktail with your fellow travelers.

Frequent questions

Passport, visa and entry requirements

To enter Denmark, American and Canadian citizens need a valid passport with an expiration date that extends at least six months after the date of re-entry.
We recommend having at least one blank passport page for entry stamps.
No visa is required for US or Canadian citizens.
If you are not a US or Canadian citizen, you should contact the consulate of your destination country to find out their specific entry requirements.

Prices and mobility of the tour

You will walk for at least 4 hours a day through moderately uneven terrain, including cobblestone streets and paved roads, with few hills or stairs.
Travelers must be healthy enough to participate in all included walks without assistance. Adding optional excursions can increase the number of walks on your tour.
At times, you should feel comfortable handling your own luggage.
ELI Tours and the tour guide accompanying your group cannot provide individual and special mobility assistance to travelers on the tour. The tour guide’s responsibility is to ensure that the group as a whole enjoys a relaxing and informative journey, and cannot be relied upon to provide continuous, individualized assistance to a single traveler.
If you have mobility problems or physical restrictions, please contact our sales team.

Transportation and arrival information

Roundtrip flights booked through ELI Tours arrive and depart from Copenhagen. An ELI Tours representative will escort the group from Dublin Airport and return.
The rest of the transportation included in this tour is in public motor vehicles.

Baggage allowance

Please note that our travelers are limited to one piece of hand luggage per person due to storage limitations in transportation and transfers, which may include train or flight connections.
Please contact the airline (s) for baggage size and weight restrictions for their flights, which may include flights during the tour in addition to your roundtrip flights to and from the tour. Please note that your flights included in the tour may have more restrictive luggage limits.
Some airlines may impose additional charges if you decide to check any baggage or exceed baggage size and weight restrictions. Please note that you are responsible for baggage charges incurred on all flights.
Be sure to tag your luggage and store valuables, medications and documents in your carry-on bag.

Tips for clothing and packaging

We recommend packing lightweight, loose-fitting clothing that can be easily layered to accommodate different temperatures, as well as a light jacket or rain gear.
A pair of sturdy walking shoes or sneakers is recommended for sightseeing.
You may want to pack fancier clothes if you plan to visit a high-end restaurant or a special performance.
It is preferable not to visit churches or other religious sites with bare legs and shoulders (and entry can be denied on this basis).

Health

At least 60 days prior to departure, check with your doctor or healthcare provider for the latest updates and entry requirements, or visit the Center for Disease Control and Prevention website at cdc .gov.
If you have medication that you take on a daily basis, make sure you have enough for each day of the tour, as well as any delays encountered.

Meal

When in Denmark, try the beloved open-faced sandwich smorrebrod – a slice of rye bread topped with local favorites that might include smoked fish, shrimp, mayonnaise, horseradish, or caviar. The country is also known for the popular Carlsberg and Tuborg beers.

Electricity and air conditioning

Denmark operates on the European standard 220-240 volts and uses type C, E or F plugs with two small round pins.
We recommend packing a universal adapter as well as a voltage converter if you plan to use your own hair dryer or other device without a built-in converter.
The air conditioning force in European hotels is often not as strong or as cold as you might be used to in the US or Canada. When air conditioning is available, it is generally seasonally regulated and centrally controlled by the hotel.
Your hostel can provide hair dryers, irons, and other small appliances. However, these amenities cannot be guaranteed.

Connectivity

Wi-Fi is available in most hotels, although some charges may apply.
There is no Wi-Fi on any of the coaches.
Contact your mobile service provider for information on roaming rates.

Time zone

Denmark is one hour ahead of Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) and six hours ahead of Eastern Time (ET).

Currency

You will use the euro on this tour.
Better exchange rates are generally available abroad, although it is worth asking your local bank for currency to use when you first arrive.
We strongly recommend that you accept debit / bank cards and credit cards, which can be used to withdraw cash at local banks as needed.
You can use most debit / credit cards at ATMs on the international Cirrus and Plus networks, but be sure to check with your local bank for withdrawal fees.
Inform your bank and credit card company about your travel plans so they don’t mistake your international purchases for fraudulent charges.
International banks and companies mainly accept debit and credit cards that work with the EMV chip system. If you do not yet have at least one debit or credit card with a chip, we recommend that you request one from your bank before your tour.

Purchase of excursions on the tour

All optional paid excursions will be available for purchase while on your tour.
Please note that if you pay for an excursion by credit card during the tour, it may take up to three months for your card to be charged.
Some optional excursions can only be purchased in advance. Check the website of the paid tour (location) for more information.
