Additional Information

At Hey Captain, we embrace Social Sailing, enabling you to connect with others and discover the charm of Copenhagen harbor. Our journey began as a group of friends on a boat, and we’re keen to extend that friendly, relaxed vibe to our guests. Expect engaging conversations and interactions, rather than a conventional guided tour.

Your captain will guide you to our top picks in the harbor during the tour. There’s ample opportunity to raise questions and we encourage you to engage in discussions about life in Copenhagen. Our aim is to immerse you in the city’s vibe rather than bombard you with historical tidbits. The itinerary isn’t strictly fixed, allowing for potential changes based on the group’s preferences and special harbor events. The 2-hour Hidden Gems Tour deviates from the typical canal tour paths in the city center, letting you explore the budding residential areas in the South or North harbor. We are excited to welcome you on board and hope you’ll enjoy our unique Social Sailing experience.

Great tour - Lisa was an amazing guide. It was nice learning about people from other countries. And we got to see and learn a lot about Copenhagen.

The Best! - An absolute must when in Copenhagen! We had a blast. Small group setting with an amazing tour guide. Our captain was Sophia and she was excellent. Knowledgeable, funny and energetic.

Absolute must to explore Copenhagen! - This is a great way to see Copenhagen and I love the concept of getting to know the crew and other guests on board. Local guides are a wealth of knowledge and information. I really enjoyed seeing so much of Danish architecture throughout different parts of the city.

Nicest guide, nicest day; highly recommend! - We were a party of 5 spanning 3 generations, and so had a boat to ourselves. The day was perfect, sunny, only slight breeze and temperate. And our driver/guide was the nicest — Nis — giving us the local’s take on life in CPH, which was much more meaningful than a dry recitation of what things were where. It was also a nice complement to the walking tour we did earlier in the day, as we got to see many things again from the vantage of the water (plus, got to rest a bit). A great way to see Copenhagen!

Lovely day out on a small boat tour! - Not what we expected but a lovely tour! Learned a lot about the area but also got to know our fellow passengers, loved the small number of folks on the boat so it was very personalized. Would definitely recommend as far more interesting than the large carrier boats!

Lovely afternoon in Copenhagen - Our tour captain (Meta?) was delightful, and gave us a very nice overview of Danish culture as we all sailed around the harbor. A very enjoyable afternoon. Note to others - this tour does NOT go down the canals, but reaches out to further points. Recommend

A different boat tour. - Captain Sofia was warm, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. This trip took on the personality of the travellers, becoming a moving party, not your usual "boat tour" with tons of information. Made a stop to clamber over an abandoned fort...sturdy shoes recommended.

Inaudible - Trip was good. So was the guide Nikolaev. He was not audible especially when he’s turning away from us and/or there’s outside noice due to wind, etc. Maybe he should use a speaker.
