Traveling with a gimlet eye.
“to have a gimlet eye”: to look at carefully and not miss anything
Welcome to The Gimlet Traveler. As our friends know, my husband and I are as particular about the quality of our vodka gimlets as we are about where and how we travel. For some time now, they have asked me for our vacation travel recommendations, so I’ve finally gathered my thoughts in one place, here, at The Gimlet Traveler. Most of these destinations are places we’ve visited, while some are planned itineraries for the future. New destinations, themed posts and pictures will continue to appear over time so be sure to check back! Hope you find this information helpful or inspiring. Cheers!

Copenhagen, Denmark
Called one of the happiest cities in the world, future gimlet traveler destination Copenhagen is known as the hub of Danish design and as a major foodie destination. While we’re not haute-Nordic-cuisine types (Noma? No mas.), we are big design fans (and there are plenty of other cool restaurants to keep us happy). But it’s not all high-brow minimalism and danish-decor shopping – there’s also the colorful and touristic old port and The Tivoli Gardens amusement park – and of course you should at least pass by the iconic Little Mermaid statue!
