Directions to Starting Point
We start just outside the Central Train Station. Make your way to the Reventlowsgade entrance to the station. The tour begins outside in the street, alongside the bike racks. The station is reachable by all train lines except line F. Most bus lines will also take you there, including Lines 5A, 6A and 9A.
Tips
Places to stop along the way
We will guide you to the most interesting restaurants on the way, but there are several nice stops in the neighbourhood such as DGI byen, a work out center and swim bath. Fisketorvet shopping center is also nearby.
Best time of day
Lunchtime, around 1PM or even a little later. After 8PM is not advisable as there are still a few rough spots in the area, and most of the restaurants will either be full or closed by then.
Precautions
Around the central train station, there are sometimes pickpockets and unsavory people hanging about. Be careful outside the back entrance. It's OK to walk past quickly, but be aware of your surroundings.
