Recommendations
Nordre Toldbod Cruise Terminal
Free admission
As the smallest of Copenhagen’s three cruise port terminals, Nordre Toldbod Cruise Terminal is located in the heart of the city, making it the ideal starting point for exploring Denmark’s capital. Typically reserved for smaller cruise ships and megayachts, the port receives visitors from destinations such as the Baltics, St. Petersburg, and the United Kingdom.
Copenhagen
The Basics
Many of Copenhagen’s top attractions are within walking distance of Nordre Toldbod. Shore excursion options include a walking tour of the city, a bike or Segway excursion, and a cruise on Copenhagen’s canals. Tours tend to cover the Little Mermaid Statue, the 18th-century Amalienborg Palace—where you can watch the Changing of the Guard ceremony—and the Nyhavn canal.
Downtown Copenhagen is home to highlights such as Tivoli Gardens, the Stroget shopping district, and Christiansborg Palace, all of which are covered by hop-on hop-off bus services.
Things to Know Before You Go
There are three cruise terminals in Copenhagen—Ocean Quay (Oceankaj), Nordre Toldbod, and Langelinie Pier (Langelinie Quay).
It’s possible to walk to Langelinie Pier from Nordre Toldbod, where you'll find the Copenhagen Tourist Information Center, ATMs, and currency exchange.
There’s no parking at Nordre Toldbod or Langelinie Pier.
Taxis are available from the cruise port.
How to Get to Copenhagen from Nordre Toldbod Cruise Terminal
Though many attractions are a short walk from Nordre Toldbod, bus 1A connects the port to Nørreport Station in downtown Copenhagen. Hop-on hop-off bus tours of Copenhagen stop right by the cruise port, while shore excursions with round-trip transportation often depart from the port too.
Port Information
The official language in Copenhagen is Danish, but most locals speak at least some English. The currency is the krone, and credit cards are accepted throughout the city.
