Currency:
In Denmark the currency is Danish ”kroner”, DKK.
For one euro you will get approximately 7.5 Danish kroner.

Payment/ATMs:
You can pay with your VISA or MasterCard almost everywhere in Copenhagen – from museums to small shops. Contactless payments are widely used and most places will prefer a card payment rather than cash. There are a lot of ATMs in Copenhagen. You can find exact positions on the ATM locator at www.mastercard.com and www.visa.com.
Drink and eat:
You can drink water from the tap in Denmark.
Ask specifically for “tap water” at a restaurant if you do not want to pay for the water served.
You are not expected to tip at a restaurant/cafe. But if you like the service, you can add around 5% on top of the bill.
Public transport:
Copenhagen\'s public transport is reliable, and the Metro, S-trains and busses (including harbour buses) can all be accessed with the same ticket. All you need to know is how many zones you will pass on your journey.
