Excellent overview of the castles and churches along the coast. The Viking Museum was quite interesting.
Brian was very knowledgeable tour guide, appropriately funny and accommodating
Excellent guide in Brian; he really helped make the trip. Active enough for those who want something that keeps you moving but easy enough for someone who needs a more moderate pace. Good taste of some highlights of the city but if you want a long stop at any one spot, this might not be for you. Would highly recommend.
This was an AMAZING day trip! Tomas did a fantastic job! If you are lucky enough to take the tour with him? You’ll be able in the best hands possible! He did a wonderful job bringing the history to life and making it real and relevant. The castles were second to none. The history and architecture were amazing. And the true thrill for me was the Viking ship museum. We got to tour amazing castles, churches, and Viking ships with tons of stories and history all brought to life courtesy of Tomas. Do you and your fellow travelers a favor and book this tour, and request Tomas!
Great informative tour and very knowledgeable and caring guide Thomas.
Great storytelling, informative , very worth the money, comfortable ride and Silas was a excellent guide for our group of 5
I have been on many trips over my years and I have to say that Siilas might have been the best tour guide ever. Great stories, great knowledge of the history, great personality, punctual and extremely accommodating. I would not have changed one thing other than the record breaking heat. If you book this trip, ask for Siilas. It's a guaranteed 5 start trip.
Would recommend this tour if you’re staying in Copenhagen. Allot one day to do this tour. Very enjoyable and informative. Henrik, our driver/guide was very patient, knowledgeable and very courteous. My wife and I had a really great time. Hotel pickup and drop off were included in the tour.
We had an absolutely fantastic full-day tour of Copenhagen, and our guide, Thomas, made it an unforgettable experience. He was incredibly knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and passionate about the city, bringing its history and culture to life with fascinating stories and insights. From start to finish, Thomas kept everyone engaged and interested, making the day fly by. Although it was a very full itinerary, it never felt rushed, and he ensured everyone was comfortable and enjoying themselves throughout. What stood out most was how kind and thoughtful he was with my 78-year-old mother. He took the time to make sure she was comfortable, looked after her so well, and was always patient and considerate. That level of care made the day even more special for our family. If you’re visiting Copenhagen, I couldn’t recommend this tour highly enough. It was the perfect way to see the city, and Thomas was an outstanding guide who truly made the experience enjoyable, memorable, and fun. Five stars!
This is a great tour. I would recommend this to anyone I know who is interested in Danish history. The tour guide was fantastic.
