I went on the puzzle walk with my boyfriend, can totally recommend this as a couples activity. It is super fun to solve the puzzles together, it was not too hard, even though some of them made us pretty puzzled at first. Super cute story and amazing artwork also.
Even though I have lived in Copenhagen for more than 10 years, this made me look at the area worth new eyes. Recommend it for locals and tourists alike!
