Copenhagen is probably the most popular cruise port in Denmark, with probably the best beer. Odense was the home of Hans Christain Andersen until his father died, then in Copenhagen, he furthered his career and wrote. The statue of the Little Mermaid is in Copenhagen but is not the most important thing to see. At least two of his dwellings were in the colourful Nyhavn harbour, as well as the shop and a life-size statue of the man that will talk to you. At the end of the long road of shops, near the town hall is the Tivoli amusement park and the Hans Christain Andersen Museum. See our many films on Copenhagen.

Denmark is in the EU but does not use the Euro. The referendum to introduce the euro was defeated, a few places may accept it

Currency Danish krone, DKK and its symbol is kr. Dialling code 45.

Denmark is linked to nearby Sweden via the Öresund Bridge.

About Us

Doris Visits is just a little hobby, and a way of helping people research ports and ships. It is our way of giving back as we are on the ships between 6 and 12 times a year as Guest Lecturers. The site is also supported by other guest lecturers.

Why Doris? It was a character Jean played in a TV show and we started the port guides as a little spin-off. It took over. I mean, rode into town and said this is it.

Who is Jean? Jean is a West End and Broadway actress who now has her own one woman show called Royal Mistresses, which she performs at guilds and on ships. Hence, she cruises – a bit. She now presents TV and is known by many cruisers for her Doris Visits port guides.

Who is Stuart? Featured in a clip in the 2024 Oscars – in the tribute to movie stuntmen – he was the Queen Alien in Aliens. Now, he points the iPhone at Jean when they go and explore ashore. He finished in movies as a director, and now writes cruise thrillers.

The grandchildren who sometimes travel and from their son Luke Aikman. He was the young Colin Firth in Fever Pitch and appeared in Freight. He is now a producer and business entrepreneur. Their daughter helped with the plot of the first four novels and is now writing with comedian Joe Wilkinson. Laura Aikman is known for being the girlfriend in the Christmas Gavin and Stacey, and Dyan Cannon in Archie. Some grew up with her Saturday show, Mysti.
