On Thursday June 20 at 16:30-19:00pm, DRUID offers the DRUID DISCOVERIES excursions, making the most out of Copenhagen and inviting participants on trips to the most happening parts of the city. All excursions depart from CBS (the main conference venue) and end at the conference dinner venue.

The excursions are not included in the conference fee and registration and pre-payment is required. Logon to your DRUID conference profile. You can add and pay for the DRUID DISCOVERY of your choice under "My Registrations" for DRUID19. DRUID DISCOVERIES have limited space and are offered on a first-come-first-serve basis.

All DRUID DISCOVERIES run at the same time. Please only sign up for one excursion!

 

DISCOVERY 1: Copenhagenize! Bike excursion

With 45% of Copenhageners cycling to work every day, the bike is loved almost like a member of the family. The city is flat and offers a world-class cycling infrastructure, allowing cyclists to travel faster than cars and go places where other traffic cannot go. Join us on a trip into Copenhagen’s fun, picturesque and architectonically innovative cycling lanes, paths and bridges. Unlike the locals, you may not wear suit and stilettos or carry children, dogs and shopping on your designer bike, but there is room for everyone on Copenhagen’s safe cycle lanes. You do not need to be an ardent cyclist to join. Guided tour, bikes and protective gear provided, and a refreshment en route included. Pick-up: 16:30 at main conference venue (CBS). End: 19:00 at the DRUID Conference Dinner venue.

 

DISCOVERY 2: City Walk! Classic sightseeing with a twist

Join us for a city walk convering some of Copenhagen's classic sights, including The Royal Theatre, Nyhavn, The Habour Bridges, The Royal Castle, The Opera, and perhaps, The (Very!) Little Mermaid. It will be two hour's lovely, quaint, relaxed walk, offering the guides' personal perspectives on the city, city planning, as well as few tips for unusual sights, and a refreshment in the guide's personal favourite haunt. Pick-up: 16:30 at main conference venue (CBS). End: 19:00 at the DRUID Conference Dinner venue.

 

DISCOVERY 3: GoBoat! Try your own luck as captain on the Copenhagen canals

All the Danish design and Nordic Food hype aside, Copenhagen remains a harbor city, with pretty canals winding through quaint neighborhoods and citizens living, swimming, rowing, and peddling home-made boats in the harbor. Why not try your luck at steering your own small solar-powered and carbon neutral boat and explore Copenhagen from a new angle? Dont worry, the boats are easy to operate, and there is time to sip a cold drink as you practice your nautical terms. Guided tour, life vests provided and a refreshment at sea included. Pick-up: 16:30 at main conference venue (CBS). End: 19:00 at the DRUID Conference Dinner venue.

 

DISCOVERY 4: JUST DRUID! Your own way

Wind your own way through the temptations of Copenhagen, until you arrive at the Conference Dinner venue. At your own peril: Drinks might be involved, so pick your excursion partners carefully! Departure: 16:30 at main conference venue (CBS). Please be at the DRUID Conference Dinner venue by 19:00. No registration required - walk at your own initiative and leisure!
