Step 2: Get to Denmark
From Amsterdam or Rotterdam, it takes roughly 7 hours to drive to the border between Germany and Denmark.
If you have to be on the island of Zealand (Sjælland), you can book the ferry Puttgarden-Rodby. The alternative to this crossing is Rostock-Gedser, but it is a little further to drive and is therefore much less interesting.
