Billboard Reader Posted April 6, 2017 #1 Share Posted April 6, 2017 I've been reading horror tales from travelers who have tried to use the public bus from Oceankaj Port into Copenhagen. My husband and I would like to travel from the Oceankaj terminal to the Nyhavn area of Copenhagen. What is the best way to do this? Are taxis available in the terminal area? If so can you give me an idea of cost? Thank you so much!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reilly1 Posted April 6, 2017 #2 Share Posted April 6, 2017 We have been there several times and always use the HoHo bus which comes right to the ship. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just check which route you are on as one has a more frequent service than the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chunky2219 Posted April 6, 2017 #5 Share Posted April 6, 2017 In May last year with Silhouette there was transport from the port arranged by the ship, at a charge. It was fine, worked well, no big queues at either end. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeaBag Posted April 6, 2017 #6 Share Posted April 6, 2017 We took the public bus from the port to the train station and it worked well on the way in. Where we went wrong was on the way back. We didn't realize that the bus service from the train to the port ended at 7:30 pm. so we walked about 4 miles back to the ship. Oh well, we were able to have more desserts for the next few nights:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lakelorain Posted April 6, 2017 #7 Share Posted April 6, 2017 You can pick up a public bus next to the Unicef building which is across the street from the terminal. Be sure to check the route as it changes occasionally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pushka Posted October 4, 2017 #9 Share Posted October 4, 2017 It was around $20 a day. We arrived at mid day and they still wanted to charge $20 for just half a day. Last bus was something like 8pm so useless for dinner. Hoho bus was around $40 and lasted for the entire stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bogofman Posted October 4, 2017 #10 Share Posted October 4, 2017 We walked in, the route goes past the little mermaid statue, walked all way to tivoli gardens and back, You can also do a carlsberg brewery tour, free bus picks up near tivoli Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBare Posted October 5, 2017 #11 Share Posted October 5, 2017 When we were in Copenhagen we also walked there and very pleasant it was. But then the ship was docked very close to the little mermaid at Langelinekaj , not at the new cruise terminal Oceankaj. That looks like a very unpleasant indirect walk to me through dockyards.

We walked through that on the way back from Nyhaven. It was an ok walk and not unpleasant. Silversea was at the closest berth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alcpa1 Posted October 6, 2017 #13 Share Posted October 6, 2017 We have docked at Oceankaj several times and were just there in May. While we waited to disembark I had a good view of the port including the Unicef building and the bus stop. The busses were very infrequent. Taxis are readily available and would be the quickest way to reach wherever you wish in the Nyhavn area. If arriving on a weekend there are often gatherings such as road races via foot or bike that can block streets for tens of minutes. We did encounter a fun loving bicycle protest movement (of sorts) on one of our Copenhagen trips that held up traffic for almost 30 minutes. We were on a bus and a taxi would have easily found an alternate route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, I have not done that walk, only the one to Langeliniekaj near the castle and the mermaid. Its only about 2km, the thought of an extra 4km to the more remote Oceankaj through industrial estates on reclaimed land at the end of a long day walking around Copenhagen seems should I say tedious rather than unpleasant. But I have not done it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
