The Copenhagen Harbour Buses (Danish: Københavns Havnebusser) is a system of water buses along the harbourfront of Copenhagen, Denmark, operated by Movia which also operates the city’s regular buses. There are four vessels: Holmen, Bryggen, Nordhavn and Nyhavn. The Harbour Buses are integrated into the Copenhagen public transport system with the same payment system as buses, Metro or DSB trains.[1]

Routes and stops[edit]

The Copenhagen Harbour Buses network has three routes, serving a total of 11 different stops along the harbourfront, seven on Zealand-side and four on Amager-side. The line network was rationalised in the 2010s, with the former lines 901, 902 and 904 merged into one line running the entire span of the harbour, using two different numbers depending on the direction. The Opera shuttle line was retained, but renamed from 903 to 993.

991 & 992[edit]

993[edit]

Route 993 serves as a shuttle service between Nyhavn, Experimentarium and the Opera, Monday-Friday from 9-18, and between the Opera and Nyhavn only between 18-23.
