carolinVJohnson Says: When i recently visit Aarhus, I could not find any organisede sightseeing tours in the city. I have now heard from friends in the city that a new tour operator is starting up daily bike tours of the city. I do not know if it's good but it is perhaps worth a try.

Rupanworld Says: the old town of Arhus can be seen around the Domkirke. There one can find nice old houses, narrow lanes and a glimpse of the old Arhus. I would like to make a point here. I am not talking about the Den Gamle BY here, it is the old town area of Arhus, where the oldest house...
Rupanworld Says: The harbour and waterfront of Arhus is really beautiful. I did not have a time to go to the beach but since my hostel was right opposite to the harbour, I made it a point to go to the harbour early every morning before the sunrise and witness the beautiful sunrise from...
queensgirl210 Says: In NYC, dining out is a sport and New Yorkers think of themselves as experts in food, drinks and ambiance. I am happy to say that Miro exceeded my expectations. My friends and I enjoyed a six-course meal and wine pairing. The cuisine was seasonal, adventurous and sublime....

MikeStarr5 Says: During the Århus festival, which takes place every year around the start of September, you can go on a fairly bracing boat tour of the harbour. The Danish guide clearly loved his job and had information and a funny story about almost every building, ship and warehouse we...
