What does Copenhagen cost?
Copenhagen is expensive — comparable to Oslo, Stockholm, and Zurich, significantly more expensive than Berlin, Amsterdam, or Barcelona. Especially dining and drinking in restaurants weigh heavily. However, many attractions are free or included in the Copenhagen Card, and the quality is consistently high. Denmark has no tourist tax.
