This was the most fun tour! Our tour guide Facundo was so much fun. Not only did we hear all the usual info on the sites we visited, we got the "dirt" as well. Facundo was well informed and our walking tour was great. If you are in Copenhagen, which is so much fun to begin with, make sure you book this tour and ask for Facundo.

Sven was delightful and well informed. He also accommodated our pick up location with ease. We highly recommend him!

Company was a no-show, we tried calling them several times emailing, and using the app. they were very communicative initially after I booked, and then they stopped.

Great Copenhagen tour

Rebekah_L, Jan 2025
Josh was a great tour guide. My Danish friend and I scheduled this tour while I visited Copenhagen. Josh had great insights to the city, and my friend and I both learned new facts and history!

Wonderful walking tour of beautiful Copenhagen!

Kathleen_C, Aug 2024
We had an absolutely fantastic walking tour of Copenhagen. Dalit was our tour guide, she met us at our hotel and we thoroughly enjoyed her passion for her city. Thank you for the wonderful morning we spent together touring Copenhagen!

Great Experience, A Must Do Activity

Jerry_M, Aug 2024
Our tour guide Josh was excellent and knowledgeable about the city and adjusting everything to what we wanted to do and see. I highly recommend him as a tour guide for anyone

Excellent experience

Ariana was a great tour guide. Personable, knowledgeable and fun…highly recommend. Excellent knowledge of local architecture and culture.

Great private tour

Jason_F, Jun 2024
Facundo was a great guide for my son and myself. He really packed a lot into 3 hours. He is an energetic guy and has an interesting background himself having lived in Argentina and Italy before Denmark. He answered all of the questions I threw at him. Provide historical background, but not too much as requested, for the sites we were looking at. Provided us with tips and additional things to do around the city, including his favorite Italian restaurant.

Amazing walking tour of every corner of Copenhagen

amy_j, May 2024
Hilde was extremely organized and knowledgeable about the culture, architecture and history of the city. She accommodated any special requests that we made to the comprehensive 5 hour tour that she had planned for our day together. She had an exceptional command of the English language and we would highly recommend using her for any tour in the city of copenhagen.

Best two hour history tour

Ellen_O, May 2024
The four of us were treated to a fascinating two hours of Copenhagen history. Ariana was engaging and so knowledgeable, especially about the city architecture history. We loved how she fit in all requested sites in our two hour tour.

Walk in the city.

Cynthia_F, May 2024
Our guide Ernestas was very considerate. My sister needed to stop due to her condition. He took us to the Natural Historical museum where my sister could rest safely while my daughter and I could continue with our walking tour. He is very knowledgeable, and gave us the Copenhagen insight. We were able to cover a lot of grounds in a short time. It was an enjoyable walk with him.

Knowledge is power - and very interesting too!

Julie_F, Feb 2024
We had a great time with Michael and saw so many different sites across the 3 hours. He had in-depth knowledge which he imparted with passion and intrigue, and gave a nice blend of history, contemporary and quirky sites. It would’ve been nice to have a short break in the middle for a drink (and a pastry!)

An immersive local experience

Gregory_B, Sep 2023
I cannot express how incredible Ariana was- a fountain of knowledge and experience. She helped me plan a day by myself afterwards which was also incredible. If you're looking to see the good sights but also experience what it's like as a local, this is it.

Tour with Dalit

courtmsnyder, Dec 2019
We had a perfect afternoon exploring with Dalit. She gave us lots of tips for our trip and made us feel welcome! She was great with my three year old as it was just her and I on the trip. Definitely recommend!
