Your journey begins with a scenic drive through the lush landscapes of Bornholm, Denmark’s sunniest island, renowned for its dramatic cliffs, charming fishing villages, and rich cultural heritage.
First stop will be at Hammershus, Northern Europe’s largest medieval castle ruin, perched dramatically on a cliff overlooking the Baltic Sea. Here, you’ll have time for photos and to soak in the sweeping views of the rugged coastline. Continue to the twin villages of Allinge-Sandvig, nestled along the island’s rocky northern shore. These fishing towns are full of character, with colorful harbors, cozy streets, and cafés where island life feels delightfully unhurried.
Next, visit the picturesque town of Gudhjem, famous for its red-roofed houses cascading down steep hills toward the sea. Known as Denmark’s “Mediterranean town,” Gudhjem is a hub for art galleries and craft shops. Visit the nearby Østerlars Round Church -
A highlight of Bornholm’s heritage. Built in the 12th century, its distinctive circular design served both as a place of worship and as a fortress.
Now it is time to discover the artistry of glassmaking at Baltic Sea Glass, one of Scandinavia’s leading studios. Watch master glassblowers at work and admire the shimmering creations inspired by Bornholm’s light and landscapes.
Arrive in Svaneke, often called Denmark’s most beautiful small town. Here, enjoy lunch at the famous Svaneke Smokehouse, where freshly smoked herring and other local specialties are served with views of the harbor. Afterwards, stroll through the town’s charming streets, lined with half-timbered houses, artisan shops, and a bustling market square.
The tour concludes with a relaxing stop at Dueodde Beach, renowned for its fine, white sand that is said to be the softest in Europe. Stretching for miles along the southern coast, it’s the perfect place to breathe in the sea air and unwind before the return journey…
