Can absolutely recommend the to anyone

Aarhus was a last minute change in itinerary on our cruise this past September, but it ended up being one of our favorite ports we visited. This was largely due to this walking tour that we took - I cannot say enough good things about our guide; he was charming, enthusiastic, and full of good information about the places we visited and the history of the city as a whole. My family and I cannot recommend this tour enough!

Highly recommendable.

Our guide, Simon, was amazing - despite the stormy weather. He was knowledgeable, humorous and accommodating to our bilingual group.

God tur med Thor!

Vi er en hollansk gruppe med 8 voksne der lærer dansk i Utrecht. Thor, vores vejleder, talte tydelig dansk. Det var meget interessant.

Meget spændende tur

Det var en super god tur. Aksel fortalte en masse spændende om byen, og krydrede det med små fun facts undervejs. Kan klart anbefales

Auf den Spuren der Entwicklung von Århus

Martina_E, Aug 2023
Hinweise auf die historische Entwicklung der Stadt, auf nicht sichtbare Ecken, 2 Stunden voller Informationen vom Guide Thor. Leider nicht so viele Infos zu den Highlights der Stadt, ggf. auch aufgrund von Verständigung, mein Schulenglisch reichte leider nicht für die umfangreichen Erläuterungen.

Tour mit spontaner sprachlicher Herausforderung

Moritz_K, May 2023
Ich hatte eine englische Tour, jedoch war das dem Guide nicht bekannt. Glücklicherweise waren die restlichen vier Dänen damit einverstanden, dass die Tour dennoch auf Englisch stattfinden kann und der Guide hat sich ebenfalls der Herausforderung gestellt. Somit war die Tour sehr interessant, nur die Organisation nicht ganz optimal.

Tour cultural em Aarhus

August é um excelente guia! Muito prestativo e com grande conhecimento cultural sobre a cidade de Aarhus. Recomendamos essa excursão com esse guia. Meus parabéns August pelo sua brilhante condução do grupo.
