Best Time to Visit Aarhus

The best time to plan Aarhus tours is between the months of May-September when it is summer in Aarhus. During this time the climate is mild and there is little rainfall. The highest average temperature recorded in July is 20?C and lowest average in January is 3?C. Such climatic conditions are favourable for city tours and have huge traffic of tourists. So, hotel booking and flight fare may be little pricey than that during the off-season.

Things to do on Aarhus Trip

Here are some of the best things to do in Aarhus

1. Explore Aarhus Waterfront:
Aarhus packages are never complete without inclusion of the picturesque Aarhus waterfront in your itinerary. It is located just a walking distance away from downtown Aarhus. The once abandoned wharves now make for a well-paved promenade where you can go for long walks and occasionally stop for sumptuous street food. You will come across a sea swimming school, new public library, cultural centre, the iconic Dokk1 and public space in the inner harbour. On a weekend visit to the harbour during the summer months (and even during winter) you can enjoy free harbour bath. There are two saunas where you can indulge in a therapeutic bath.

2. Visit the Viking Museum: To get fair insight about one of the oldest and most special cities of Denmark, Viking Museum must have a place in your Aarhus packages.

As you explore the nook and corner of the Viking Museum, you will get to see a replica model of the city which existed during the time of Harold Bluetooth around 980 AD. The model also suggests that the city of Aarhus was found by the Vikings some 1,200 years ago in the very place where the museum is located.

3. Spend some time at Latin Quarter: Built as a replica of the Latin Quarter in Paris, this is one of the must include places in Aarhus tour packages if you have a penchant for history and culture of a place. As you ramble through the streets and alleys of the ancient city you can witness a unique blend of the old and new in the layout, buildings and the residents. You can stop by a trendy café or restaurant to enjoy a cup of coffee or beer in the most antiquated neighbourhoods of Latin Quarter. More than hopping around shop fronts, half-timbered houses or trendy pubs or restaurants, Latin Quarter is more about soaking up the ambiance of the place.

4. Den Gamle By: The historic open-air museum is one of the best places to visit on your Aarhus tours as it takes you back to Denmark’s bygone days. Den Gamle By is the ultimate refuge of Danish history since the 1700s. As you walk around the museum through cross bridges and squares, you cannot help being fascinated by the old school charm of this town. A series of half-timbered houses and buildings and an antiquated bakery generate living snapshots of the past few centuries. The Danish Poster Museum and Jewellery Box are worth visiting on your day trip to this historical site.

5. Feel the peace at The Beach Forest: The green asylum located in the heart of Aarhus city offers mindful walking and enjoying the silence of the woods which is interrupted by the rumbling noise of the ocean. The tranquil ambiance of the forest with immaculate views of hillside and ocean makes it a perfect venue for picnics and weekend trips in the lap of nature.

6. Nordic Cuisine at Mefisto: Located right in the heart of the Latin Quarter in a renovated old house in Volden, the cosy restaurant with its elegantly decorated indoor is well worth a visit in your Aarhus tours.

From basic brunch to full course meals the restaurant offers an eclectic range of menu to their guests.

The park is a popular venue for hosting events and gatherings by the locals and a favourite play corner for kids.

8. Go on a tour to Ebeltoft: Located a short distance from Aarhus, the old town of Ebeltoft is a sought-after destination in its own right and a must include in your Aarhus tours itinerary. It is a historic village whose chief attraction is the Jylland Battleship which is considered as the world's longest wooden ship. Cobblestone streets, stunning architecture and glorious history of art make Ebeltoft a hub of tourism in Aarhus. Wandering around the town of Ebeltoft is one of the favourite things of tourists. Visit the Dye Museum and an old confectionary house both of which retain the old school charm. Outside the town there are a number of attractions for you to visit. You will never be tired of gazing at the azure ocean on whose bank the city is built. There are a number of animal parks, aquariums and zoos around Ebeltoft that are worth a visit.

9. Indulge in activities at Lake Ega Engso: Built in a relaxing natural setting, the artificial lake of Ega Engso and its surrounding bayou area is home to over 200 species of birds and a perfect site for outdoor activities and daytrip.
