5 Stars! - What a fantastic tour experience! We went as a family of adults and absolutely loved it. It was a small group, which made chatting with our guide Mathias easy. Mathias was brilliant throughout the tour and very accommodating to the needs of our group. I can't recommend him and the tour enough, thank you!

Perfect introduction by a local guide! - We did the 3 hour tour yesterday. Our guide Jacob had just the right mix of history, culture and local aspects for our tastes. We walked through very pretty lanes and got a good sense of the evolution of Copenhagen. The cafe stops were very welcome and timely and the treats were delicious. Frog snappers and flodbollers, who knew!!
