There really is something unique about Scandinavia and in the heartland lies a country of enchanting beauty, where medieval castles stand tall amidst lush green landscapes, and vibrant cities pulse with life and sophistication. Welcome to Denmark and as your private charter flight cruises along the tarmac, you’ll soon thank yourself for making this land your destination.
There is something of a regal charm and cosmopolitan ambiance about Denmark’s capital city, Copenhagen, so make this your first stop and a stay at the iconic Hotel d’Angleterre. Nestled in the heart of the city, this historic establishment exudes opulence from every corner, offering sumptuous suites adorned with exquisite furnishings and unparalleled views of the picturesque Nyhavn waterfront.
Once refreshed, it’s time to head out and explore Copenhagen’s myriad attractions. A leisurely stroll through the cobbled streets of the Old Town reveals a treasure trove of architectural wonders, including the majestic Rosenborg Castle and the splendid Amalienborg Palace, home to the Danish royal family. Art connoisseurs will delight in a visit to the world-renowned Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek, where masterpieces by artists such as Rodin, Monet, and Gauguin await.
When hunger strikes, it’s time to indulge in Copenhagen’s culinary delights. Sample innovative Nordic fare at Noma or be wowed at the seafood creations of Geranium. There’s no end to the gastronomic delights on offer in this exciting city.
Departing the capital discover the enchanting region of North Zealand, north of Copenhagen and home to some of the country’s most iconic landmarks. A scenic drive along the coastline unveils the majestic Kronborg Castle, immortalized as the setting for Shakespeare’s Hamlet. Onwards to Hillerød, where another magnificent castle makes an appearance. This is Frederiksborg Castle, set amidst tranquil gardens and shimmering lakes. This Renaissance masterpiece is a testament to Denmark’s rich cultural heritage and royal legacy and is packed full of priceless works of art and historical artifacts.
Head back along the coast and you’ll soon come across the Great Belt Bridge, the fourth longest suspension bridge in the world and gateway to Fyn Island. Make your way to Odense, the childhood home of Hans Christian Andersen and explore the cobbled streets he wondered as a boy. The writer’s small yellow house is still standing in the town.
Take a walk around the large antique market before finishing your day with dinner at Aro, a Michelin starred restaurant set in an old factory and offering a five or seven course set menu.
You’ll want to book your private jet charter sometime between June and August, though be aware that July is the major holiday month for the Danes. The temperatures are rarely high but to avoid peak heat and peak tourism season May can be a delightful time to visit.
Choosing to explore the Scandinavian countries by private charter plane is the perfect way to squeeze as much out of your precious leisure time as possible. Soak up the unique atmosphere of Denmark and enjoy the cultural and natural beauty of this stunning country.
