Tips

If you wish to extend the trip, consider adding a full day in the Icelandic Highlands to explore Landmannalaugar or a day‑trip to the Lofoten Islands in Norway for dramatic coastal scenery. To shorten the itinerary, you could combine Denmark and Norway by flying directly from Copenhagen to Oslo and skipping the Legoland day, focusing instead on cultural highlights in both capitals.
