Buses run every 1/2 hour. Not too busy this time of year (early April). There are 3 routes. The bus drivers were nice and helpful. Waited extra time so we could get something from the store. Good experience.

Viator/Stroma Copenhaven HOHO bus and canal tour.

Ronald_F, Apr 2026
Excellent pick up and return from/to Ocean Quay terminal 3, right outside our cruise ship terminal. The Viator/Stroma mobile ticket worked perfectly. All drivers and staff were very nice and helpful. The included 1.5 hr Canal cruise was excellent. Copenhagen is a gem.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Dear Ronald, Thank you so much for your nice feedback we are happy that you as a Cruise Ship guest found our combination product with bus and boat a good way to experience Copenhagen. Best Regards Stromma Denmark

Thank you for your kind review! We’re happy to hear you had a good experience and found the service convenient with the regular half-hour schedule. It’s great to know our drivers made a positive impression by being friendly, helpful, and even going the extra mile to wait for you. We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to the team. We hope to see you again soon!

Brilliant

Timothy_O, Dec 2025
A brilliant tour that covers everything you’d want to see in Copenhagen Having 2 days to travel all 4 routes was very convenient

Excellent

Debbie_R, Nov 2025

Vacation

RaymondandPatricia_D, Sep 2025
Great way to see the city boat ride was the best! The route passed our hotel which was convenient for us at the end of the day and easy to pick up the next day

Do it

Anna_G, Aug 2025
The boat tour was fabulous. The City tour is decent. Always a good way to get your bearings in a new city. But why all Hoho Companies make it so darn hard to get info online on bus stops and routes is beyond me. It’s good to know this when choosing accommodations.

Great transportation throughout the city

JILL_Z, Jul 2025
We used the bus as our transportation throughout the city for 48 hours and the canal cruise was a fun way to see the city from a different perspective. Our hotel was a pick up location which made it even more convenient.

We did both the bus and...

MARI_R, Jul 2025
We did both the bus and Canal tour. It was a wonderful way to see Copenhagen. Only suggestion would be to give a little bit better directions on how to get from the bus to the canal tour.

Easy to explore the city...

Raksha_A, Jul 2025
Easy to explore the city with this hop on hop off tour. In time buses to catch to move on to next destination

Views from the water

Susan_G, Jul 2025
Nina was a very professional, friendly and informative guide. The cruise was a great was to see Copenhagen from the water on our first day.

Try all three routes!

Alan_W, Jul 2025
We did all three routes during our 48-hour window. It was helpful having the boat tour leave from the same place the busses stop.

Great way to see Copenhagen

Theresa_L, Jul 2025
The hop on hop off bus and boat tour was a great way to see Copenhagen, including great value for money.

Great value for bus and boat tours!

darlene_g, Jul 2025
Be sure to to take the bus AND boat excursions- they are both excellent! Take an umbrella for the boat because there is no cover in case of rain.

Lovely day

Eileen_R, Jul 2025
My whole day went very smoothly and we all had a wonderfull time. The tour operator was very animated.

Copenhagen from the cruise port

Elizabeth_W, Jun 2025
Great experience. Everyone was so very helpful and knowledgeable. A little struggle to start because we didn’t understand the different colored routs but soon got the hang of it. The included canal tour was fantastic.

Could use more content and very hard to find info about where to get on the bus

John_M, Jun 2025
I like to use a hop on hop off tour to get an overview of a new city. After I booked I looked for a map of stops on Viator and never did find one. Finally I asked a competing hop on hop off company and they directed me to a nearby stop. The audio narration was much lighter on details than most other hop on hop off tours I’ve taken. There were long periods of silence as we drove around and many interesting sights, statues, etc that remained unremarked. I wonder if one of the competing hop on hop off tours might be better but they apparently don’t ticket online.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Dear John, Thank you for the feedback on our bustour. We are in the process of updating our audio system so we hope that if will be better in the future. We are sorry that you did not find the need information on the busses on Viator. We will see if this can be more clear. Alternative our website always provide the updated information. Best Regards Stromma Denmark

Good boat, bad bus

Karen_L, Jun 2025
Boat tour was terrific. pleasant, entertaining, and informative. Bus tour narration was minimal and uninformative. They gave little history and did not say what to see at each stop. The bus stayed at each stop too long.

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Dear Karen. Thank you for you feedback we are happy that you enjoyed our boat tour. We will forward your feedback regarding the Bus Tour. Thank you.

This is a beautiful city...

Andi_K, Jun 2025
This is a beautiful city rich in history! This was a really nice canal cruise. We did the hop on hop off bus combo. We were off a cruise ship doing this tour. Unfortunately we didn’t have a lot of time in Copenhagen by the time we found the boat launch. We needed more time in the port to take full advantage. Beautiful city!

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Thank you for your recommendation of Copenhagen and our tours to see the city by bus and boat.

Hop on Hop Off with canal cruise

Robin_B, Jun 2025
Red bus is frequent but green and purple only stopped at each stop every hour or so. At times we had long waits. Boat tour was lovely. We were there on a beautiful sunny weekend so Buses were very busy and full. Otherwise it was a great way to see Copenhagen.

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Thank you for your feedback of our tours with bus and boat we are glad that you liked the way to see Copenhagen with bus and boat.

Boat better than bus

Leanne_B, Jun 2025
Make sure you get QR code before arriving. There was an issue with my ticket and I couldn't get on without the QR code. Boat tour is definitely better than the bus so prioritise this. Copenhagen isn't that big so can walk the majority.

Response from Host, Jun 2025

We are sorry that you had problem with the QR code but happy to hear that you enjoyed our boat tour.

Great overview!

Vanette_B, Jun 2025
Boat is a must do! Good value for the money. Buses ran frequently for the red line especially. Colorful also a must.

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Thank you for your nice feedback of our Hop on and Of Busses and boat tour. We are happy that you liked it.

3 hours on a bus for a 15 min drive

pauljcoxonbtinternet, Jun 2025
We left the ship at 9.30 and the hoho bus was a short walk away. We boarded and it left at 10 am. We were told that there was a small ship nearby so the bus diverted away to pick up around 10 passengers. With the drivers tannoy on we could hear that with everyone of those passengers the driver explained rhe bus and boat deal, the discount they could receive and tried to persuade each one of them to take the deal. After 20+ minutes of this we drove to the lLittle Mermaid where everyone had to get off and wait for another bus into Copenhagen. 15 minutes later we caught this bus and headed onwards. Copenhagen is a busy city with a lot of traffic lights but the slowness of the journey was compounded by the fact that rather than seeing sights we were stopping at numerous hotels to pick up passengers. No one could hop on or hop off because the bus was full and the number of people waiting at the bus stops was surprisingly large so no one was getting off. We arrived at the canal cruise at 12.30 and took the 1pm cruise. Three and a half hours from ship to boat. The cruise was excellent and thoroughly well run and presented. The last bus to the ship was 3.40pm and given the number of people on the hoho system and so few buses we took a taxi to the ship which cost 27 euros for the 4 of us and took 15 minutes. Needless to say the moral of the story is - Take the canal cruise but get a uber there and back.

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Dear Paul. Thank for your explanation of your tour with our busservice. We are sorry that we did not live up to your request. We will pass you experiance on to our trafic leaders to improve our service. However we are happy that you enjoyed our boattour. Regards

Disappointed

Courtney_W, May 2025
I was unable to use this ticket. I bought it for use during a 7 hour layover and despite reaching out to the tour company on where to find the busses, I only saw one of this tour company’s the entire time I was in the city and that was when I was walking back to the metro station to leave. I saw probably 20 busses of the other tour company operating in the city while searching for the red bus with a little yellow, with stromma logo.

Response from Host, May 2025

Hi Courtney, Thank you for addressing your issue with us, for us to correclty handle your inquiry, please send us the details to our mail: Info@Stromma.dk We hope to hear from you soon.

Great option!

Kristen_A, May 2025
Great - good commentary and covered all the sites. Easy to spot the bus. Friendly drivers were helpful. Cruise express to pick up from port made it very useful and easy to navigate. Not unexpectedly,(traffic can't be helped) but bus for the Purple line was running late so didn't sync correctly with other lines therefore missed that bus and route (runs more infrequently). Boat tour was a highlight!

Response from Host, May 2025

We're very happy you thought our tours was useful, especially our cruise line! We hope to see you onboard our tours again soon.

Great trip with Viator

WaiSze_L, Apr 2025
I booked via Viator a trip from Bergen to Flam and a hop on/off bus+boat tour in Coppenhagen. The experience was good. Booking online is easy and convenient.

Response from Host, Apr 2025

Thank you for the nice feedback.

Good app

Keli_E, Dec 2024
The app was easy to use and price was good. I did panic when my tickets disappeared and we still had 24 hours left of a 48 hour ticket. It was lucky I saved them the to Google wallet as they needed to be scanned for each trip. I wouldn't use again. I would book while there.

Response from Host, Dec 2024

Thank you for your feedback. We're thrilled to know we met your expectations, and we truly appreciate your kind words. We look forward to welcoming you back!

Boat great, bus sucked

Rachel_P, Oct 2024
The boat ride was great. But the bus was often late, when it was running. There was 2 buses missing on one day . Which was not practical considering the short time range they have. And their " live map" sucks real bad. It kept freezing. The bus stops are not clearly indicated , and it's not showing which direction we had to take. Do not recommend

Best way to see the city

Bev_W, Sep 2024
Easy to book, easy to find bus stops & the best way to see the city and choose the stops to spend extra time sightseeing.

Easy Travelling

Marlene_Z, Sep 2024
This is the best way to travel to see the sights of Copenhagen and get off at a selected destination. Did the Classic Route (there are 3 routes) Got on at stop 12(Tivoli) off at stop 1 to do shopping. Can get the boat at stop 1. Continued after shopping to see Little Mermaid. Very comfortable and informative.
