Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde transfer: the easiest way to get there
When you land at Copenhagen Airport, the last thing you want is to work out how to get from the airport to Roskilde. A private airport transfer takes the question away: a Haqqi Tours driver is at arrivals when you walk out, your vehicle is parked minutes away, and the cost of the Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde transfer was fixed on WhatsApp before you left home. There is no airport taxi queue, no meter running in traffic and no negotiating a fare in a language you may not speak.
This page covers everything travellers ask about the Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde route: how far it is and how long it takes, whether an airport taxi, public transport or a private transfer is the better choice, what Roskilde is like, what to see there and where to stay, where you meet your driver at Copenhagen Airport, which vehicles we use and how the booking works.
How far is Roskilde from Copenhagen Airport?
The distance from Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde is about 45 km by road, and the transfer usually takes around 45 minutes. Journey time depends on the time of day: early mornings and late evenings are quickest, weekday rush hours and holiday weekends add time. Because the Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde transfer price is fixed in advance, a slow drive never costs you more, which is the first difference from an airport taxi on the meter.
The fastest road route runs via the E20, and your driver adjusts it on the day for traffic and roadworks.
The route heads west from the airport through Copenhagen's southern suburbs on the E20 and the Holbæk motorway (Route 21), passing flat, open Zealand farmland.
For planning, count on 45 minutes plus the time to collect your luggage and clear passport control at Copenhagen Airport; up to 60 minutes of waiting (90 at some airports) is included.
Arriving at Copenhagen Airport (CPH)
Copenhagen Airport (CPH) at Kastrup is only about 8 km south-east of the centre, with Terminals 2 and 3 side by side and the Øresund Bridge to Malmö starting beside it.
Whichever hall you come out of, the routine for a Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde transfer is the same: collect your bags, clear passport control, switch on your phone, and follow the meeting instruction from your WhatsApp confirmation. Your driver already knows your flight has landed - every pickup at Copenhagen Airport is tracked against the live arrival time - so there is no need to call, though a message is always welcome.
Searches for "CPH to Roskilde" or "CPH airport transfer" land here for a reason: CPH is the airport code for Copenhagen Airport, and this is the private-car service that connects it with Roskilde.
Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde at a glance
Service: private transfer, your own vehicle from Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde, door to door. Route: about 45 km, around 45 minutes depending on traffic. Vehicles: Sedan (1–3 passengers), Minivan (1–7 passengers) and Sprinter (8–13 passengers) - Mercedes, Volkswagen, Ford Transit and Peugeot Traveller models, air-conditioned, with room for luggage. Price: fixed for the whole vehicle and agreed on WhatsApp before you travel, tolls and waiting included, nothing to pay the driver on the day. Meeting: at Copenhagen Airport, at the point named in your confirmation, with flight tracking so a delay moves the pickup. Booking: the form on this page or a WhatsApp message; confirmation in writing within minutes, in Arabic or English.
Taxi or private transfer from Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde?
The airport taxi fare from Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde is unpredictable: meters, night tariffs, tolls and traffic all move it, and you only learn the total at the door. A pre-booked Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde transfer is the opposite - one fixed cost for the vehicle, however long the drive takes, with the price agreed before your trip.
For one traveller with a small bag, a taxi or public transport can be a fair choice. For two or more people, a family with children, or anyone with real luggage, a private transfer is normally the cheapest way to get from Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde per person - and by far the easiest. Public transport to Roskilde involves changes, tickets and stairs; a private car goes to the hotel door.
There is also the question of trust. Our drivers know the hotels of Roskilde, work on a fixed price, and never take a detour or add a "special fare" at the end. Your booking is confirmed by a real person on a WhatsApp desk that works in Arabic and English, and that same desk is reachable throughout your trip.
Public transport to Roskilde: is there a bus, train or metro?
Public transport from Copenhagen Airport runs mainly into Copenhagen itself: the metro reaches Kongens Nytorv from the airport in about 15 minutes and trains run to the Central Station and across the bridge to Malmö; both are good for a light traveller, while a cruise terminal with a boarding time, a hotel on cobbled streets or a family with luggage is easier by car. Reaching Roskilde from there means a further connection with your luggage, which is where a door-to-door car saves the most time and effort.
Many of our guests have tried the public route into Roskilde once and booked the car ever after. The difference is not only speed but effort: no ticket machines in a foreign language, no stairs with suitcases, no working out the last mile to the hotel. A private Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde transfer starts at the arrivals door and ends at the reception desk, and the fixed price covers the whole vehicle.
About Roskilde
Roskilde is a historic cathedral town at the southern end of Roskilde Fjord, about 35 km west of Copenhagen. Roskilde was once the seat of Danish kings and bishops, and its red-brick cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, holds the tombs of Danish monarchs. Down by the fjord, the Viking Ship Museum displays five original ships raised from the water and builds replicas in its open boatyard. The town centre is small and walkable, with a pedestrian high street, the Stændertorvet square and old merchant houses. Every summer the town hosts one of Europe's largest music festivals on its southern outskirts. Arriving by road, the cathedral's twin spires appear above the rooftops well before the centre.
Things to do in Roskilde
Once you have checked in, Roskilde is worth exploring: Roskilde Cathedral and the royal tombs, The Viking Ship Museum on the fjord, Stændertorvet square and the pedestrian high street, Ragnarock museum of rock and pop culture and Walks along Roskilde Fjord. Your driver can point some of them out on the way in, and the WhatsApp desk can arrange a car for a day out if you want to see more.
Copenhagen itself is within reach for a day: Kronborg Castle at Helsingør, Tivoli Gardens and Nyhavn harbour - the same WhatsApp desk arranges the car there and back.
Where to stay in Roskilde
Where you stay in Roskilde makes no difference to the price of the transfer, which is fixed for the whole vehicle. The places most travellers choose: Town centre near the cathedral and railway station, The harbour area by the fjord and Quiet residential streets on the edge of town - and any other address is fine too.
The cathedral and high street sit on a small hill, while the Viking Ship Museum is down by the water, so tell your driver which one you want first.
Meeting your driver at Copenhagen Airport
Your confirmation message on WhatsApp includes the meeting arrangement for Copenhagen Airport - it varies by airport, between an indoor meeting point, a specific exit and a driver with a sign at the arrivals door - along with your driver's name and number. With flight tracking, your driver is there the minute you land, and the waiting time is included in the fixed price.
Up to 60 minutes of waiting is included (90 minutes at some airports), and if you are delayed at baggage or passport control a quick WhatsApp message keeps your driver informed. On the way back, the driver collects you from the hotel at an agreed time with enough margin for your flight from Copenhagen Airport.
Our vehicles for the Roskilde transfer
For this route we offer Sedan (1–3 passengers), Minivan (1–7 passengers) and Sprinter (8–13 passengers). The vans are Mercedes, Volkswagen, Ford Transit and Peugeot Traveller models, all recent, air-conditioned and cleaned between journeys, with proper luggage space rather than a crowded boot. Choose the vehicle by how many of you are travelling and how much luggage you bring; the desk will tell you if a larger vehicle would be more comfortable.
All vehicles are insured and driven by professional, licensed drivers who know the Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde road. Child seats are provided on request, and there is no extra charge for reasonable luggage.
As a guide, the sedan suits one to three people with normal suitcases, the minivan or GMC a family or group of up to seven with their luggage, and the Sprinter larger parties of up to thirteen; there is cold water in the car, phone chargers in most models, and no smoking.
Who books the Roskilde transfer
The Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde transfer suits anyone who values a plan: honeymooners heading for a hotel with more luggage than they admit, parents travelling with small children, friends sharing a Sprinter, colleagues on a work trip who need an invoice, and grandparents who would rather be met than find their own way. Because the price is per vehicle, the more of you there are the better it compares with taxis and tickets.
The transfer is the first thing most guests book with us and rarely the last; day trips from Roskilde and the ride back to Copenhagen Airport are arranged in the same conversation.
How to book your Roskilde transfer
Send the form on this page, or write to us on WhatsApp: flight number, date, passengers, luggage and hotel. Within a few minutes a member of our team confirms your Roskilde transfer with the price fixed, the vehicle chosen and the meeting point at Copenhagen Airport explained. Everything is in writing, in English or Arabic.
Changes and cancellations are handled through the same WhatsApp conversation. Because the terms depend on conditions such as how close to the pickup time the request is made, our team will explain exactly what applies to your booking when you ask - always before any payment, never as a surprise afterwards.
Good to know before you land at Copenhagen Airport
If you continue to Malmö, tell us - the bridge toll is included in the fixed price and passports may be checked at the Swedish side; for a cruise, give us the ship name so the driver goes to the right terminal.
Note the terminal or hall your flight uses at Copenhagen Airport, and if you change flights before travel tell the desk - the pickup is tracked against the flight number we hold.
Tell us in advance about anything that affects the vehicle - child seats and ages, a wheelchair, skis, golf bags, a pushchair, extra suitcases - so the right car or van is sent to Copenhagen Airport.
Roskilde to Copenhagen Airport: the return transfer
Most guests book the return at the same time: a Roskilde to Copenhagen Airport transfer from the hotel door, timed to your departure, with the same fixed-price approach. If your plans change during the trip, message the desk and the pickup time is adjusted.
The Roskilde to Copenhagen Airport leg is the same fixed price, and the driver drops the bags at the right departures entrance so you are not hunting for the terminal yourself.

Why travellers choose Haqqi Tours for Roskilde transfers
What guests tell us they value about the Roskilde transfer is the absence of surprises. The price they were quoted is the price they pay. The driver is where the confirmation said. The car is clean and the right size. And the WhatsApp desk that made the booking is still there, in Arabic and English, for the whole trip - for the return, a day out, or a question about Roskilde at any hour.
Pickup options and waiting time
When you book on WhatsApp, you choose one of two pickup options for your arrival:
- Flight tracking: your driver is at arrivals the minute your flight lands and waits for up to 60 minutes. If your flight lands at 2:00 pm, the driver is there at 2:00 pm.
- Fixed time (no tracking): your driver arrives at a time you choose and waits for up to 60 minutes from that time. Send us your flight number and we check its real landing times over the past 10 days to recommend the best pickup time.
At most airports the included waiting time is 60 minutes; at some it is 90 minutes. We confirm the exact waiting time for your airport when you book with us on WhatsApp. After that, the driver cannot wait longer: the fixed price is based on one hour of airport parking and the driver's time, and with more than 30 transfers a day, every booking is scheduled back to back.
With flight tracking, normal delays are covered. If your flight is delayed by more than 5 hours, we cannot guarantee a new pickup at the last minute, because the new arrival time is uncertain and other transfers are already scheduled. Message us as soon as the delay is announced: we always do our best to rearrange, but it depends on the number of bookings that day. With a fixed-time pickup, the time slot is reserved for you and cannot be changed on the day, even if your flight is delayed or something unexpected happens.
Two hours before your flight lands, we send you your driver's name and phone number on WhatsApp. If you are still in the air, the message will be waiting for you as soon as you switch on your phone. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers to what travellers ask us most, before they book.
Where do I meet my driver at Copenhagen Airport?
Your WhatsApp confirmation tells you. Airports differ - Copenhagen Airport may use an indoor meeting point, a set exit or a name board just past customs - so rather than a general rule we send the exact spot for your flight, with the driver's name and number. Walk out, look where the message says, and your driver is there.
How far is Roskilde from Copenhagen Airport, and how long does the transfer take?
About 45 km by road, which usually takes around 45 minutes. Traffic at rush hour or on holiday weekends can add a little; the price of your Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde transfer is fixed in advance, so a slower drive never costs more.
What is Roskilde like?
Roskilde is a historic cathedral town at the southern end of Roskilde Fjord, about 35 km west of Copenhagen. Roskilde was once the seat of Danish kings and bishops, and its red-brick cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, holds the tombs of Danish monarchs. Down by the fjord, the Viking Ship Museum displays five original ships raised from the water and builds replicas in its open boatyard. The town centre is small and walkable, with a pedestrian high street, the Stændertorvet square and old merchant houses. Every summer the town hosts one of Europe's largest music festivals on its southern outskirts. Arriving by road, the cathedral's twin spires appear above the rooftops well before the centre.
Where do visitors stay in Roskilde?
The usual choices: Town centre near the cathedral and railway station, The harbour area by the fjord and Quiet residential streets on the edge of town. Our transfer goes to any hotel or address there at the same fixed price for the vehicle - just send the hotel name on WhatsApp.
What is there to do in Roskilde?
The highlights are Roskilde Cathedral and the royal tombs, The Viking Ship Museum on the fjord, Stændertorvet square and the pedestrian high street, Ragnarock museum of rock and pop culture and Walks along Roskilde Fjord. The WhatsApp desk can arrange a car for a day out once you have settled in.
Anything I should know about arriving in Roskilde?
The cathedral and high street sit on a small hill, while the Viking Ship Museum is down by the water, so tell your driver which one you want first.
Which road does the Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde transfer take?
Usually the fastest route via the E20, about 45 km and around 45 minutes in normal traffic. The driver checks traffic and roadworks on the day and takes whichever way is quickest; the price stays the same.
Is a private transfer cheaper than an airport taxi from Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde?
Compare the whole cost, not the starting fare. A taxi from Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde adds the meter in traffic, a night rate and sometimes tolls; the private transfer is one figure agreed in writing before you fly, whatever the traffic does. For anyone not travelling alone with a small bag, that figure is normally the cheaper one.
What is the best way to get from Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde?
With luggage, a family or after a long flight, a pre-booked private transfer is the easiest and most comfortable way: door to door, no queue, no changes. Public transport can work for a solo traveller with a small bag, but it means tickets, transfers and stairs; an airport taxi means the meter. A private car takes you straight to your hotel in Roskilde.
Is there a bus, train or metro from Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde?
The metro reaches Kongens Nytorv from the airport in about 15 minutes and trains run to the Central Station and across the bridge to Malmö; both are good for a light traveller, while a cruise terminal with a boarding time, a hotel on cobbled streets or a family with luggage is easier by car. For most visitors the private transfer is simpler: it starts at the arrivals door and ends at the hotel, and the fixed price covers the whole vehicle.
What happens if my flight to Copenhagen Airport is delayed?
Normal delays are covered when you choose flight tracking: the driver arrives at your real landing time and waits up to 60 minutes. A delay of more than 5 hours, or a fixed-time booking, cannot be rescheduled at the last minute because other transfers are booked before and after yours - message us early and we do our best.
Do you meet late-night and early-morning flights?
Yes. The Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde transfer runs around the clock, and our WhatsApp desk is answered day and night. Tell us the flight number and we plan the pickup for the real arrival time, whatever the hour.
Which vehicle will I get for the Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde transfer?
You choose when you book: Sedan (1–3 passengers), Minivan (1–7 passengers) and Sprinter (8–13 passengers). The vans are Mercedes, Volkswagen, Ford Transit and Peugeot Traveller models, air-conditioned and with proper luggage space. If you are unsure, tell us how many passengers and bags you have and we recommend the right one.
Is the transfer private, or shared with other passengers?
Always private. We do not run shared shuttles: the car or van from Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde carries your party only, leaves when you are ready, and goes straight to your address.
Can you provide child seats?
Yes - say the ages of the children when you book and the driver brings the right child seats or boosters at no extra charge. Please mention it in the WhatsApp conversation so the correct vehicle is sent.
Are tolls, parking and waiting time included in the price?
Yes. The fixed price for the Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde transfer covers the vehicle, the driver, fuel, road tolls, airport parking and up to 60 minutes of waiting after your flight lands (90 at some airports). There is nothing to pay the driver on the day unless you have added something to the booking.
Can we stop on the way from Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde?
Usually, yes - a short stop for a shop, a sim card or a photo is no problem if you mention it when booking, and a longer stop or a sightseeing detour is quoted as part of the same transfer. Tell the desk what you have in mind and they confirm it in writing.
How far in advance should I book the Copenhagen Airport to Roskilde transfer?
