May is a great time to visit Denmark. In Copenhagen daily highs average 62F and evenings and morning temperatures cooling to around 48F. Copenhagen experiences some rain during the month of May, but typically plenty of sunshine is expected.

Our accommodations offer Wi-Fi, and we recommend using Wi-Fi supported apps such as WhatsApp, FaceTime or Skype as an alternative to making calls from your mobile phone. For American travelers, many phone providers have temporary international travel plans, check with your provider for options.

Casual clothing is appropriate for most of our time together. Layering is the best option for the daily temperature changes and types of activities on our trip. We recommend bringing casual short and long sleeve layers (lightweight tees, shirts, pants, dresses, and shorts). Comfortable walking shoes are essential—sneakers, sandals, sport sandals or open-toed shoes, usually flat. We do suggest bringing a light jacket and a raincoat, just in case. 

We recommend cocktail attire for our final farewell dinner. In addition, we will have one afternoon to dine on our own. If you want to make reservations at an upscale restaurant, you may want to bring an extra formal option. 

 Note: Danish law prohibits the carrying of pocket knives. 

Additional items we recommend you to bring:

• Hat (to protect yourself from the sun)

• Sunscreen

• Sunglasses

• Sandals or flip-flops

• Sturdy walking shoes

• Bathing suit

• Phone charger

• Headphones

• Travel pillow

• Ear plugs

In Denmark the local currency is the krone (DKK; plural 'kroner'), abbreviated kr and worth roughly kr 7.53 to 1 US dollar. Most restaurants and shops accept credit cards.

If you're eating out on your own, tips are included in the bill, though tipping an additional 5% to 10% in restaurants is standard. No tip is expected for small purchases such as coffee or a beverage, although it's common enough to leave the change, rounded up to the closest krone.

Most gratuities and tips are included in our trip price.

US citizens are not required to have a visa for tourist visits to Denmark under 90 days: however they are required to show a valid US passport. It is recommended that your passport is valid for six months after your travels are over.

In Denmark, the power grid runs at 230 volts (in the U.S. it's 120 volts), so you'll need an adaptor for you electronics and appliances.

Travelers from the U.S. also need plug converters:  in Denmark the sockets are Type K (two round pins plus a U-shaped pin) and, if you are comfortable not using a grounded connection, accept Types C, E and F.
