About this tour
This session walks Kødbyen, Copenhagen's Meatpacking District, after dark. You see original industrial signage kept on several buildings and current bars and restaurants occupying former slaughterhouses. Rasmus explains how the district's transformation happened within a couple of decades.
The walk covers three points through the district at an easy pace, timed for the evening as venues fill up. Rasmus answers questions about specific buildings and the district's shift.
This suits anyone interested in nightlife with an industrial backdrop. It pairs well with his planning call for a full night out.
Included
- Live video walk with a local guide
- Questions to your guide all the way

What happens if my connection drops?
Rejoin with the same link within a few minutes and the guide will catch you up on anything you missed.
Can I ask the guide questions during the session, or is it a fixed script?
Anything, any time. Sessions leave room for your own questions throughout, not just at the end.
Is this suitable if I do not drink?
Yes. Say so when you book and the guide will focus on the atmosphere and venues rather than the drinks list.
