Discover Denmark, a country of charm and innovation.
Welcome and modernity
Many preconceived ideas still persist at the mention of a Scandinavian country: the legendary coldness of a people living to the rhythm of invariably long winters... And yet! Neither the mood nor the Danish climate can be associated with such a cliché. While the climate is temperate, the Danish temperament can sometimes be fiery! This apparent coldness simply stems from a form of respect and discretion, a rigor in this society. You can travel in Denmark with complete peace and security, without fear of being accosted or harassed, which certainly does not imply disinterest on the part of these European compatriots! Proud of their identity, the Danes will make it a point to welcome you. Flattered by your visit to this still little-known kingdom, they will strive to make your stay easier. The French are particularly well received in Denmark, and for good reason, as the Danes are great gastronomes and lovers of good wine! The hotel structures are well developed and the service matches the quality of the offerings. Denmark is also an ideal destination for family travel: many cultural sites have facilities specially designed for children.
An Unforgettable Nordic Escape
Discover a country where innovation meets history, where every street corner tells a legend. Its varied landscapes, between verdant islands and wild beaches, offer an ideal setting for rejuvenation.

Food lovers will be delighted by a cuisine that combines tradition and modernity, showcasing local products of exceptional quality. Whether you are passionate about art, history, or nature, this country has something to enchant every traveler. Come experience a unique adventure in a kingdom that knows how to combine charm and authenticity with elegance.
A Human-Scale Country
Whether you have a week or a month, nothing seems exaggerated in this small kingdom where one can easily move from one point to another. Copenhagen is a human-sized capital, and you quickly soak up the friendly atmosphere that characterizes the city. The short distances make it easy to walk to various points of interest offered by the country's main cities. There's no need to devote an entire day to visiting a museum; you can stroll through them at your leisure, without feeling the anxiety of large spaces if you have little time.
A Journey Through 13 Centuries of Art and History
Nothing surprising that the oldest kingdom in the world is a highly cultural destination. This royal dynasty is a thousand years old. King Christian IV, a builder king, left an impressive legacy: there are no less than four royal residences in the center of Copenhagen. There are about twenty castles and manors on the island of Zealand alone, and sixty across the entire country! But Denmark was also the stronghold of the Vikings. Around fifteen sites, true open-air museums, cover the entire country. It is also impossible not to praise the efficiency of Danish museums: clear, airy, and modern spaces, in harmony with the surrounding nature, that do not leave one cold.
Unusual landscapes to discover
Although two-thirds of Danish territory is made up of arable land, there are still "wild" lands offering unusual landscapes. The chalk cliffs of the island of Møn, south of Zealand, rise to more than 100 meters. Skagen and the northern tip of Jutland are appreciated for their Nordic light and magical colors that once inspired Danish painters. The west coast of the peninsula, with its vast sandy beaches and seas of dunes, attracts thousands of visitors each year. Beech forests, expanses of moorland, and rolling hills complete this picture. An exceptional coastline adds a touch of exoticism and undoubtedly breaks a certain monotony that has often, wrongly, been attributed to Denmark.
