“I booked the bar crawl at my hostel on night one, fully expecting a tourist trap. Three hours later I was in a craft beer bar in the Meatpacking District with eight new friends from six countries. We spent the next four days biking around the city together. That bar crawl was the best €15 I spent in Copenhagen.”
