Travel to Denmark
The quickest and cheapest way of travelling to Denmark is by air. Although there is a ferry between Harwich and Esberg, this option is more costly, infrequent and inconvenient.
If you travelling for the 4 day option, then a morning flight will allow a good 1.5 days in Copenhagen. Flights are available from numerous UK airports.
