Do I need a car in Denmark?

The answer

No, not for most visits. Trains, buses and ferries serve the main towns and many islands, and cities are easy on foot or by bicycle. A car is most useful in rural areas, on the west coast and on islands with limited public transport. If you rent one, confirm current licence, insurance and toll rules with official sources, and remember that parking in city centres can be limited and costly. A common plan is to take trains between cities and rent a car or bicycle only for the countryside.
