1. Destination Overview
🌍 Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark, is located on the eastern coast of Zealand Island. It is a seaside city that blends Nordic fairy tales with modern design. Here you will find the colorful Nyhavn, the majestic Amalienborg Palace, the whimsical Tivoli Gardens, and the iconic Little Mermaid statue.

7. Tips for Choosing a Tour Operator

|---|---|---|
| Certification | Check for IATA (International Air Transport Association) accreditation, partnership with the Danish Tourist Board | Avoid unlicensed "local operators"; ask for company registration number |
| Contract Terms | Provide multilingual contracts (English/Chinese/Spanish); clearly state cancellation, insurance, and liability clauses | Refuse verbal promises; ensure everything is in writing; check transparency of cancellation policy |
| Price Comparison | Compare 3-5 quotes for the same itinerary; focus on details of "included" items | Beware of "too-good-to-be-true" low-price tours, which often have shopping stops or hidden costs; ask for a list of all optional activity prices |
| Guide Service | Require a licensed multilingual guide (English + Chinese); ask if audio/text commentary is available | Ask whether the guide's gratuity standard is already included to avoid extra charges during the trip |
| Safety Assurance | Include global medical rescue insurance; 24-hour emergency contact number | Request the insurance policy number; confirm coverage for acute illness and theft of belongings |
