Practical tips before you book

- Walking vs private car — distances and traffic feel different by neighborhood (Indre By, Vesterbro, Nørrebro).
- Ticket strategy — timed entries for headline sights should be booked early in peak months (May–Aug).
- Food & energy — tell the guide about kids, elders, allergies and preferred meal length.
- Language expectation — ask whether English (English) is fluent conversation, not greetings only.
