I really enjoyed this tour! The guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. Because it was a small group, the guide was more than happy to oblige our questions. Biking was at a reasonable pace. I liked going on a weekend as the guide mentioned there's less traffic on weekends.
Wonderful and very long tour through Copenhagen. Bob was knowledgeable, friendly, and easy to understand. We were especially delighted biking through Freetown Christiania — what a fascinating place. Bob even invited a local resident bystander to give his take on the history.
Really glad to hear you enjoyed your time exploring Copenhagen with Bob! It’s great that his knowledge and friendly approach made the tour easy to follow, and that cycling through Freetown Christiania stood out as such a memorable part of the experience. We love when moments like the impromptu local insight come together naturally like that. Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback!
Phenomenal start to our stay in Copenhagen! Huge THANK YOU to Alex, your professionalism and in-depth knowledge about the city was top-notch and we learned so much from you in just 3 hours. It was a cool and very windy day, but that didn’t keep Alex from still giving us one of the best tours we have ever taken (for reference, I’ve visited nearly 50 countries and love doing bike tours to help get my bearings in new places) 10/10 highly recommend!!
What a lovely way to begin a stay in Copenhagen. We’re so pleased to hear that Alex gave you such a strong introduction to the city, and that his professionalism and depth of knowledge made those three hours so worthwhile. It’s especially nice to know the tour stood out even on a cool and windy day, and that it helped you get your bearings in a way that felt genuinely memorable. Coming from someone who has travelled so widely and values guided experiences as part of discovering a new place, your words mean a great deal to us. We appreciate your recommendation and would be glad to welcome you again.
We went on a walking tour on Saturday 6th September because it was too wet to do the cycling tour that we booked to do the day before. Our walking tour was excellent and our young, very smiley and enthusiastic host was great. I am sorry I do not recall his name but he comes from Texas and was great fun.
So glad to hear your walking tour of Copenhagen turned out to be such a great alternative after the rainy weather. Having an enthusiastic and engaging guide makes all the difference, and it’s wonderful that the tour left you with such a positive impression of the city.
Excellent -saw different side of Copenhagen Guide was very knowledgeable. The ride was a bit crazy at times -roads busy so got behind due to congestion and red light
Thank you for the feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed seeing a different side of Copenhagen and found the guide knowledgeable. We understand the busy roads and traffic can occasionally affect the flow, and we appreciate your patience. Happy to hear it was still a positive experience overall!
A brilliant way to see the city - bikes take you close to places a coach cannot go. Our guide was very knowledgable and a lovely young lady. Thoroughly enjoyable

Fantastic tour, starting at the Norreport bike shop, across from the Subway Station. Met up with guide Dianna, and she was so accommodating and safety minded. Ms Dianna was very history knowledgeable and did a little customizing of the tour to fit your request. A brief restroom/snack break was offered midway thru the tour, was appreciated. The guide helped with getting some awesome pics. First class guides and tour. Recommend
Thank you for highlighting the 5 star service of Diana & for the detailed positive review. All the best from the Amitylux team.
We arrived in Copenhagen the day before to lots of rain. However, the day of our tour, the rain let up considerably. We had signed up for a "small group tour" but little did we know that we would be the only two riders! Our guide, Andres, was FANTASTIC! He took us to all the key spots and was incredibly knowledgeable, teaching us a lot if Copenhagen history along the way. He was one of the best tour guides we've ever had...and we've had some good ones!
Thank you for your wonderful review and for highlighting the exceptional service provided by Andres We're so glad to hear that your tour was a highlight of your trip. Our team looks forward to creating more memorable experiences for you in the future!
