WHAT YOU WILL VISIT:
Moesgaard Museum
Situated in the picturesque landscape of Skåde, the new Moesgaard Museum, built in 2014, is a showpiece of art, design and function. Within this masterfully crafted modern structure, specialized archaeological and ethnographic exhibitions are on display detailing everything from the early Bronze Age all the way through to the Viking age. The interior of the building is reminiscent of a terraced landscape to give the impression of an archaeological excavation unearthing layers of history. Combining staged settings, storytelling, and state-of-the-art research, the new museum appeals to visitors of all ages.

SHOPPING:
Aarhus is nicknamed "The City of Cafés," and the aroma of coffee that wafts through the streets tells you why! Take an hour to explore independently the plethora of stores on the longest shopping street in Aarhus. Browse boutiques carrying the top brand names as well as small shops selling local goods. Both are abundant along this half-mile (850-meter) main artery that cuts through the city center.

WHAT YOU WILL SEE ALONG THE WAY:
Your guided motorcoach tour takes you into the city center, where you'll admire this elegant, cosmopolitan city filled with romantic touches and small-town charms. Key points of interest include the 12th-century Aarhus Cathedral and the striking City Hall, a masterful example of Danish design.
