We are arriving in copenhagen August 24 and will have 3.5 days. I have been reading and can not get a handle on a good itinerary. Is it worthwhile going to Malmo for a day. Should we take an organized tour or go on our own. We would like to hit all the main attractions, only one museum and castle, a canal tour, Tivili Garden in the evening. Is it worthwhile to buy a three day transit pass. Thanks for any advise, Rho

When 3.5 days, I would drop Malmo. There is so much to see in Copenhagen, there is no need to take over to Malmo.
My suggestion:
Day one:
Buy Politiken%26#39;s Copenhagen (the best possible guide you can find with great and interesting stories and only hand picked attractions, restaurants, bars, newest update etc. You can get it in English, in all book stores and it is quite cheap, maybe 20 dollars or so). It is definitely worth buy!
Walking tour through Stroget from Rådhuspladsen, turn to the right when on Amagertorv and go see Parlament and Stock Exchange, church on the other side, then turn back to Nikolaj%26#39;s Church and from there walk to Kongens Nytorv. Take a walk through Nyhavn and check out first when you have next boat (Canal trip). Mind two different companies. There is one extremely cheap (NETTO BÅDENE) although they take the same route as the expencive ones.
When off the boat, visit in the neighbourhood Amalienborg, Marble church (next to it) and Nyboderne (amazing houses and read the story about them in Politiken%26#39;s Copenhagen).
From there go to Rosenborg Castle and the park around it. Definitely worth a walk. If there weather is good, and if you are up to it, get a sandwish nearby or a salad, and eat your lunch in the park, together with other locals.
Take a walk around the lakes starting around Droning Louises Bridge (Queen Louise) towards Planetarium. Cross Gl. Kongevej and Vesterbrogade and head towards Halmtorvet. Have your coffee or tea at one of those cafees over there or if you want to see Copenhagens answer to New York%26#39;s Meat district, walk 5 min more and visit Kødbyen. There you can have your coffee/beer/wine at PatePate, Kreative kager or BioMio. The best coffee in town is nearby in a very small and cosy bar called Sort Kaffe %26amp; Vinyl.
Evening: Tivoli (good idea to make it after dinner, when the lights are on!)
Do you want me to make itinerary for the next days too?
