ReDIScover Tours

Mark your calendars and dust off your suitcase – it’s time to revisit Scandinavia!

Whether you’re interested in Danish design, the history of the Vikings or the Danish royal family, love eating Nordic food, or are curious about the Danish model of social trust or the LGBTQ+ movement – you’re sure to have fun! There will also be time to celebrate your DIS reunion with former classmates during the Homecoming Tour.

FAQs

How many people are on a ReDIScover tour?

Each tour generally has 18-25 participants.

The DIS Alumni Homecoming Tour in 2024 is an exception to this. 

Can I bring my family? 

ReDIScover tours are open to DIS alumni + 1 guest (18+ years old). Nevertheless, you are welcome to bring your family with you, as each afternoon is open for you to experience the city with your family. Please ensure you have childcare during the day and evenings, as program activities are not designed with children in mind nor does DIS offer childcare.

The DIS Alumni Homecoming Tour in 2024 is an exception to this. See more information on the Tour page.  

What are the physical and health requirements for ReDIScover tours?

All tour participants must be in good health to participate in a tour. There will often be extensive walking (and on some tours, biking), occasionally on uneven surfaces. Any medical conditions needing special assistance must be reported to DIS at the time of reservation. If you have concerns about your ability to participate in a tour, don’t hesitate to reach out to our team to discuss our recommendations.

Do I need travel insurance?

All tour participants must have their own travel insurance. This is required, but not covered, by DIS. A travel insurance should cover medical expenses, accidents, theft, and personal liability.
