FAQs

Yes, all of our SuperHalfs packages include guaranteed race entry.

No, there is no qualifying time required for the Copenhagen Half Marathon. Participants must be at least 16 years old on race day and able to complete the 21.1 km course independently.

As the official tour operators, we are required to sell the race entry along with accommodation. It will not be possible to buy just the race entry.

Yes, it is possible for us to organise accommodation for you if you already have the entry or if you are travelling with a non-running companion. However, please note that this will be at the same hotel as the rest of the group travelling on our package.

We have several single runners interested in sharing a room with another runner and, wherever possible, we try to pair up people who have requested rooms on twin share. However, please keep in mind that this is not a guarantee and in some cases you might be required to take a single supplement. If you have a friend who is already on the group you'd like to share your room with please let us know your preference at the time of making the booking so we can pair you together.

Please contact us if you would like to add extra nights before or after your trip. If you book your additional nights with the hotel directly, please note that you will have to change your room in order to stay in the room allotted to you as part of the group booking for the duration of the trip. Please refrain from requesting us or the hotel reception to allow you to remain in the same room if you book your extra nights through the hotel directly - with the high demand for rooms, such requests will unfortunately have to be automatically declined.

Unfortunately, we do not offer the option for travellers to stay at any hotels other than the ones we already have on our itinerary. We choose our hotels painstakingly, ensuring that they are well-located and have all the necessary amenities and comforts – we offer only limited options because we like to foster an atmosphere of camaraderie on our trips, and this happens when runners are staying in the same hotels.

The Copenhagen Half Marathon does not allow runners to transfer their spots to another runner or to defer to another year. If you do not run the race as registered, you lose your entry, and cancellation charges as per the policy will apply.

Make sure your previous races are recorded in your SuperPassport and that your SuperPassport number is linked to your final race entry. Visit the SuperHalfs booth before the race to confirm you’re on the list, then head to the SuperHalfs finish area after your race to collect your SuperMedal

Mr

Excellent experience from start to finish. Everything was well organized, communication was clear, and the team was very supportive. The hotel, transfers, and race arrangements were all handled professionally. I would definitely travel with Active Holiday Company again.

The ah-ha moment on the trip

Seeing thousands of runners at the start line and crossing the finish line reminded me that consistency and determination can achieve any goal.

Tips for future travellers for this trip

Arrive a few days early to adjust and collect your race pack without stress. Bring comfortable walking shoes, stay hydrated, and enjoy the atmosphere before race day. Trust the itinerary and follow the guidance from the Active team.

Wonderful Experience with Gauri and the Team

I booked my first marathon holiday with them and it was a wonderful experience. Gauri and all the staff are very friendly and helpful. They don’t just book your holiday,they look after you during the whole trip. They took us to nice restaurants for lunch and organized a lovely party after the marathon. Everything was well organized and easy. I will definitely contact Gauri again to book my next marathon holiday.

The ah-ha moment on the trip

Lunch at the vineyard restaurant. The beautiful views and the great food.

Extraordinary experience

Cape Town Marathon was just amazing. You couldn’t have asked for better weather, a fabulous picturesque route, incredible community support and superb arrangements. The energy throughout the course was electrifying and every stretch offered breathtaking views. The volunteers, spectators and fellow runners made the entire experience truly memorable. And when it comes to Active Holidays, Gauri and her team never settle for anything less than perfect. From the excellent hotel stay — just 500 meters from the start line for me — to the wonderful get-together with fellow runners, the city tour, partial route recce, pre-race lunch and post-race dinner, everything was thoughtfully planned and exceptionally well managed. Just amazing from start to finish.
