Copenhagen

We work hard to bring you choice and quality every time you book car hire in Copenhagen. We have estates for moving around in comfort, 4x4s for travel further out of the city and sports cars or convertibles for a taste of luxury. From Mercedes-Benz to Audi, Ford and BMW, we have all the top motoring names in our fleet. For moving house or transporting bulkier goods, we provide van hire and truck hire. As part of your car hire booking, you can also choose from a range of useful extras. One of our most popular add-ons are Sat Navs so you won't get lost in a new city, along with children's car seats to ensure younger travellers stay safe and insurance for drivers under 25 so everyone can share the driving.

When you arrive via the airport, you can pick up your rental from our office then take the Amager Boulevard for 4.2 miles into the city. It should take around 14 minutes depending on traffic.

If you park in a free area, you'll need to display a parking disc. These will be supplied with all rental cars and are used like a clock, to show the time you arrived.

The motorways are toll-free in and around Copenhagen, and there are plenty of arterial routes which connect the city's various districts. Although the network is well laid out, traffic problems occur here during rush hour as they do elsewhere.

The 02 route is a main road which circles central Copenhagen, if you're leaving the city, it's best to join it quickly, then follow it up to the E47. From here, you can simply take the exit you need to get deeper into the country.

Take in the incredible architecture and pristine harbour area, or venture into the stylish Vesterbro district for a taste of vintage chic. For business travellers, Copenhagen is one of the world's cleantech epicentres and has had a clearly defined business centre at Ørestad, close to the airport, since the 1990s.

Colourful and rich in culture, Copenhagen is packed with ancient treasures found on its own doorstep and far beyond. You can see some of the most stunning Viking hauls in the world here at the National Museum of Denmark, the largest museum in the country. There are also opulent regal homes like the Amalienborg Palace, dripping in fine art and packed with stunning jewels owned by the current Danish royal family. If you appreciate the Danish Golden Age of art, then the National Gallery of Denmark has plenty to share. However, it's on the seafront beside the Langelinie walkway that you'll find one of the best-loved features of Copenhagen, The Little Mermaid. She's just 1.25 metres tall, but the Hans Christian Anderson inspired sculpture remains hugely iconic.
