Hippies & Christianshavn Tip-Based Walking Tour
Description
Book this tour to guarantee your spot on this public, TIPS-BASED tour. Are you a HISTORY BUFF? This tour is probably NOT for you. This tour is for people who are tired of traditional sightseeing and excited by the idea of being pleasantly offended. Stroll over the beautiful Inner Harbour Bridge and hear stories of all the things that would go in a typical Scandinavian film noir: suicide, shipping magnates and socialism. And if that doesn’t work up your appetite, then learning about the bougie and budget Copenhagen food scene certainly will! From award-winning dining to street food. So if you have an appetite for the curious and creative, and you want to learn all about the area of Christiania and its inhabitants (–including a troll!) then this tour will be right up your alley. Come get the low down on the high hippies and find out what makes this area like no other place in the world! The tour ends outside of Christiania, where you will be well-equipped to venture in on your own.

Steen was fantastic. Very funny, very informative and thoroughly enjoyable.
Very fun and interesting tour with Steen!
We were hoping to get a commentary whilst inside the community.
Superb enjoyable experience. Martin was knowledgeable and interesting and very funny. It was great to see and learn about everything but he made it memorable
We had the tour with Martin and it was just great! Getting to know the area and history with a very good sense of humor!
Thor was great. Nicely organised, fun facts and good duration.
We booked our tour with Steen. It was amazing. Me, my husband and my mom-in-law enjoyed a lot. He told us a lot about the place with really funny jokes. Will definitely suggest.
fun, informative, and funny. just what you want from a good walking tour! thanks, Steen.
I recommend this tour. I didn’t really know what to expect at first, but I learned a lot of new and interesting things. It was truly engaging and well worth it. Many thanks to our guide Roger for a great experience.
This was the second tour we took with Thor. This, alongside the Beer tour is fun, charming, and very interesting (kudos!). A very interesting and (good) different kind of tour from the rest. Stands out among the crowd! ❤️
