Available in supermarkets until 8 pm, while spirits are sold in specialized shops called Vinmonopolet. - Card Payment
Card use is widespread, with even small retailers accepting card payments. Cash is seldom needed. - Weather-appropriate outdoor clothing that is waterproof and windproof.
- Comfortable walking shoes for city exploration, plus a light daypack for daily excursions.
- Sunscreen, given the long daylight hours, even in winter.
- A compact umbrella as weather can be unpredictable.
- Credit cards and local currency, as cards are widely accepted.
- Power bank and adapters, with Denmark using type C and K plugs.
- Warm clothing and scarves for autumn and winter, due to cooler temperatures.
