Thank you! - My tour guide was Silz and he was amazing! He was very knowledge and personable. This was my first time going on a tour by myself and it was so worth it. I learned so much in such a short period of time. Highly recommend (-:

Vestebro beer tour for a great neighborhood experience - Kenneth led a really enjoyable beer tour through Vesterbro, including knowledge of the area’s history and challenges, development of the area from a red light district through today’s gentrification, and aspects of the area that highlight the humanity of its residents both past and present. Visiting brown bars and a personal favorite, the original Mikkeller location, plus an unexpected licorice shot, was a great way to get to know a neighborhood with a local that brings the story of the area to life. Taking us through the Meat Packing District also provided a great tip for dinner! Highly recommend for anyone looking to experience the city through the eyes of a local in a laid back atmosphere.

Cycle Kenneth = best tour guide ever! - CYCLE KENNETH!!! He is the best tour guide out there! The other party that booked was a no-show, so we ended up having a private tour. Kenneth took us to several Copenhagen neighborhood pubs, pointing out landmarks, giving us the history, and dropping many hilarious one-liners. He was engaging, knowledgeable, laid back, and an absolute blast to be around. The beer was great, but the company stole the show. Sorry you got home late, Kenneth, but we think it was worth it! :)

Ask for Oskar!!! - Oskar—you definitely did us right on this tour. So much fun exploring the “darker” side of Copenhagen with you. The pubs you took us to—yes-we’d never have either found the place or had the guts to go in!!! It ls been a few days and we are still talking about your tour!!

Book This! - Our guide Kenneth was fantastic. He brought us to 3 different bars (plus a bonus market to get a "walking beer" because we told him that drinking on the street where we are from is illegal and he felt we needed to have a new experience. We did not protest). All of the bars had their own personality and their own beer vibe.
Sitting down with a local and having a conversation over a beer was a great way to actually learn about not only where you are, but the people. Kenneth was a wealth of knowledge about the area and a pretty awesome guy.
This tour, and Kenneth in particular, gets 5 stars from me!

- Had an incredible tour around vesterbro with Laura. It ended up being just me on the tour, and we had a great time! Had great beer, but also felt like I got to walk around the area and learn while also being with a local. Great conversation, company, and it really made my Copenhagen trip special. She also forwarded an entire note of recommendations, which was so helpful for the rest of my trip!

Fun time! - The chief and I met our guide Oskar at the designated meeting place. Fortunately for us, we were his only guests. He took us to 3 very different vibe bars/breweries in an interesting part of the city. He told us all about the meat packing and former red light districts. He was a native Copenhager and knew the city well. Definitely recommend this tour and ask for Oskar!
