    Arlene_M, Jul 2026
    This guide is oblivious to the guests. She hurried along while slower folks were left behind. She spoke directly to those who kept her pace in the front and others heard nothing .

    Response from Host, Jul 2026

    Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're sorry to hear that this was your experience. Our tours are designed to be comfortable and inclusive within a limited 2.5-hour timeframe, and our guides always aim to balance covering as much as possible while ensuring the group stays together and everyone feels comfortable. We understand that different guests have different walking paces and expectations, and it can sometimes be a challenge to meet everyone’s needs perfectly. We will be sharing your feedback with the guide as a reminder to continue being attentive to the group, regularly check in with guests, and adjust the pace where possible. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention, as feedback like yours helps us continue to improve.

    Interesting but could be better if touring a few more landmarks.

    Xunxie_W, Jul 2026
    It was an interesting tour. The tour guide was very knowledgeable. We walked around Copenhagen seeing some landmarks. However, just felt we missed some important landmarks.

    Response from Host, Jul 2026

    Thank you for your review. We're pleased to hear you found the tour interesting and that you enjoyed the guide's knowledge. We understand that everyone has different expectations of what should be included in a city highlights tour. Before booking, we provide a detailed itinerary showing exactly which landmarks are covered, allowing guests to choose the experience that best matches their interests. As this is a 2.5 hour walking tour covering almost 4 kilometres, we've carefully selected the sights that can comfortably be explored within the available time. For guests looking for a more comprehensive introduction to Copenhagen, we also offer our 5 hour Highlights & Hygge tour, which visits additional attractions at a more relaxed pace. Thank you again for your feedback.

    Wendy_R, Jul 2026
    Excellent walking tour, good pace with plenty of stops for information. You do cover a lot of ground though so you need to be able to walk easily. Kenneth was very informative and friendly. Would recommend.

    Response from Host, Jul 2026

    Thank you for your wonderful review! We're delighted you enjoyed the tour with Kenneth. Our goal is to cover as much of Copenhagen as possible within 2.5 hours while keeping a comfortable pace and making plenty of stops for stories and questions, so it's lovely to hear that balance worked well for you. Thank you for your recommendation!

    Walking Tour of Copenhagen

    Caren_S, Jul 2026
    We thoroughly enjoyed this walking tour. Oskar P. was wonderful. He was knowledgeable, informative, helpful and funny. We loved the sights, the stories, etc. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Copenhagen.

    Response from Host, Jul 2026

    Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed exploring Copenhagen with Oskar. He has a great way of combining history, local stories, and humour, so it's lovely to hear that made the tour such a memorable experience. Thank you for your recommendation, and we hope to welcome you back again someday!

    Kenneth_G, Jul 2026
    We were at our meeting site on time and after. Looked all over for your person. Finally decided they were a no show. We would like our $ back. Ken and Doris Gamble.

    Response from Host, Jul 2026

    Dear Ken and Doris, We’re very sorry to hear that you were unable to join the tour. Our guide was at the meeting point as scheduled together with the rest of the group, and the tour departed as planned. Before every tour, our guide remains at the meeting point to welcome guests and give an introduction before departure. We also ask guests to contact us immediately if they have any difficulty locating the guide or the meeting point, as we’re always happy to help by phone while the tour is still at the starting location. Unfortunately, we did not receive a call or message from you, and when we tried to reach you by phone, we were unable to get through. While we completely understand how disappointing it is to miss a tour, we are unfortunately unable to offer a refund when guests do not join the tour and we are unable to establish contact before departure. We appreciate your feedback and wish you all the best during the rest of your travels.

    Walk About

    Kathy_P, Jul 2026
    Lots of walking over cobblestone but our guide Michelle was very friendly and had lots of extra tidbits to tell us about Copenhagen

    Response from Host, Jul 2026

    Thank you so much for your kind review. We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed exploring Copenhagen with Michelle. She loves sharing the little stories and local insights that don’t always make it into the guidebooks, so we’re glad those stood out. We hope you had a wonderful stay in Copenhagen!

    Give this guy Oskar a raise!

    James_C, Jul 2026
    A lot of great tidbits of danish history and a lovely walk along the canal the forts and the picturesque views of center of copenhagen

    Response from Host, Jul 2026

    Thank you for the fantastic review. We’ll be sure to pass your kind words on to Oskar, he’ll be thrilled to hear them! We’re so pleased you enjoyed the mix of Danish history, beautiful scenery, and local stories along the way. Thanks for exploring Copenhagen with us!

    Interesting things to see...

    Kelly_S, Jul 2026
    Interesting things to see but absolutely no bathroom breaks in the 2.5 hours. None offered and none even at the end of the tour.

    Response from Host, Jul 2026

    Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you found the tour interesting. Our 2.5 hour tour is designed to cover a lot in a relatively short amount of time, so no scheduled breaks are included. This is also communicated in the itinerary available before booking. That said, there are public restrooms available along the route as well as near the end of the tour. If you had let the guide know that you needed a restroom break, they would have been happy to accommodate this whenever possible. As our tours are limited to a maximum of 10 guests, it’s usually easy to communicate any needs during the walk. We appreciate your feedback, and we’ll keep it in mind as we continue to improve the experience for our guests.

    Great walking tour.

    Emma_W, Jul 2026
    Friendly, knowledgeable and entertaining! The tour brought the city to life in a small group, perfectly paced.

    Response from Host, Jul 2026

    Thank you for your lovely review. We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed the friendly atmosphere, the storytelling, and the pace of the tour. Keeping our groups small is something we truly value, as it creates a more personal and engaging experience. We hope to welcome you back to Copenhagen one day!

    Michael_L, Jul 2026
    Our guide Oskar was very knowledgeable and personable. Highly recommend. Great walking tour even in the rain.

    Response from Host, Jul 2026

    Thank you for your kind words and recommendation. We’re delighted to hear that Oskar helped make the tour enjoyable despite the rain. We’ll be sure to share your feedback with him. We hope you enjoyed the rest of your time in Copenhagen!

    Or…. Walk around on your own

    Mindy_M, Jul 2026
    Weather was good, though it threatened rain. Guide was knowledgeable with facts, lacking humor however. Very textbook-like. Would have loved to hear unusual or off beat tales.

    Response from Host, Jul 2026

    Thank you for your feedback. We're pleased to hear you found the tour informative and appreciated the guide's knowledge. We're sorry that the storytelling style wasn't quite what you were hoping for. Every guide brings their own personality and style to a tour, and we understand that humour is very personal and can be experienced differently from one guest to another. We appreciate your comments and will certainly keep them in mind as we continue developing our tours.

    Good overview tour.

    RScott_S, Jul 2026
    Good overview tour. Just the right amount of information. Copenhagen highlights by friendly, local guide.

    Response from Host, Jul 2026

    Thank you for your kind review! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed the tour and found it to be a great introduction to Copenhagen. We hope you had a wonderful time exploring the city during the rest of your visit.

    Kenneth was a fabulous guide! We had a wonderful time and we’d recommend going on this tour to anyone.

    Wonderful

    Lina_P, Jun 2026
    It was a very informative tour. The tour guide Karoline was very knowledgeable. She was patient with us seniors walking with canes. The meeting point was hard to find for us. Even locals we asked didn’t know zinkglobal place. Would have been helpful if the meeting point was the fountain near the church.

    Response from Host, Jul 2026

    Thank you for your kind review and for your lovely comments about Karoline. We're delighted to hear you enjoyed the tour and appreciated her patience and knowledge. We're sorry to hear that you found the meeting point difficult to locate. The meeting point is at the ZinkGlobal sculpture, which is the only sculpture on the square in front of the restaurant listed in the address. This is described in our joining instructions, and we always recommend guests read them carefully in advance, as following the step-by-step directions usually makes it easy to find us. As Copenhagen is a city with many statues and sculptures, it is unfortunately quite common that even locals are not familiar with the names of all individual artworks placed around the city, which can sometimes add to the confusion. Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope you enjoyed the rest of your visit.

    Amit’s tale

    Eliot_B, Jun 2026
    Amit was our tour guide. He was very knowledgeable and personable. We learned a lot about the culture and history of Copenhagen. Had a great tour.

    Excellent Small Group Walking Tour

    JoAnn_B, Jun 2026
    Our guide, Peter, offered a wonderful walking tour of Copenhagen. He hit so many highlights while giving us a great perspective on the City and its distant and recent history. It was our first day in Copenhagen and a great way to get oriented.

    Sites, Information, + Hygge!

    KCWise, Jun 2026
    Michelle was a wonderful guide! There was a lot of walking through the beautiful city -- waterfront, park/fort, Nyhavn, palace area, and inner/old city. Along the way, she shared interesting history, folklore, and other background. It was especially enjoyable to hear it all from a Copenhagen native who brought a sense of "hygge" to the experience. Michelle said the tour company also offers a bar/beer tour and some more area-specific tours, which I'm looking into now because they're likely also worthwhile.

    Response from Host, Jun 2026

    Thank you for your lovely feedback. We are so pleased you enjoyed exploring Copenhagen with Michelle and hearing the stories behind the city’s landmarks. It is wonderful to hear that her local perspective and hyggelig approach made such a positive impression.

    Francisco_R, Jun 2026
    Very good option to get the highlights of the city, it is a good walk but since it is in a small group format, it is very convenient. Our guide was very informative and covered a lot of history and good details

    We saw lots of picture worthy sights.

    Susan_P, May 2026
    Amit did a great job leading us through all of the beautiful sights in Copenhagen and telling us the history behind them. I took lots of pictures of beautiful bronze statues and architecture. We very much enjoyed this tour!

    Very good tour

    Michele_W, May 2026
