Social Sailing - Copenhagen Canal Tour - Hidden gems (2 hours)
Description
Hey Captain is a charming canal tour with a local vibe. Our ambition is to deliver a personal, social and informative tour in a unique way that will make our guests remember as the highlight of their trip. This 2-hour Hidden Gems tour will take you to the captain's favorite spots, which are off the beaten track from the standard path in the inner city. We will explore upcoming residential areas of the North harbor where the Venice-inspired residential homes and buildings are emerging in areas formerly used for industrial purposes. You will gain a sense of the city and how the Danish lifestyle and design influences the development of the harbor, more than an overload of historical facts.

This 2-hour "Hidden gems" tour will take you to Hey Captain's favorite spots, which are off the beaten track from the standard canal tour routes in the inner town. We will explore upcoming residential areas of either the South or North harbor, where the Venice-inspired residential homes and buildings are emerging in areas formerly used for industrial purposes. As we explore the upcoming areas you will see how former industrial buildings are being transformed into new spaces, where new and old are mixed in the architectural structures. You will gain a sense of the city and how the Danish lifestyle and design influences the development of the harbor, more than an overload of historical facts.

What a treat. We booked the two hour ‘hidden gem’ tour. We were only ones on boat so turned into a private tour. Saw some reviews that complained that there were periods were guide wasn’t talking. That was a plus for us. Our guide was great. Informative and personable. She didn’t talk if there was no reason to. It was very peaceful on the water. We had great weather which made experience even better. Recommend
It was a good two hour tour. Laid back and went up and down the river. Stopped at a historical site and chatted. It was a relaxed time and we learned a bit from our guide and enjoyed it.
Very relaxing morning getting a different perspective of Copenhagen from the water. Very friendly guide and group
Lovely boat tour around Copenhagen! The tour guide was very informative and provided a lot of historical and architectural instruction along the way. It was a nice and relaxing tour along the canals and a lovely way to see the city. Two hours was plenty.
We had the best time with our Captain Nadia. We are a family of 4 with 2 little kids. She was so sweet and patient with them. She took the time to explain things to our girls and even let them pretend sail. It was the best way to explore the canals for our family. We had so much fun and will do it again!
What an absolute joy. A very personal enjoyable meander around the waterways with our fabulous captain. Totally recommend this over the sardine cans of bigger boats with dozens of people.
Great experience! Ramiro was fantastic!!’
This was a terrific experience -- a totally pleasant two hours, a neat way to see the city and to learn things we wouldn't have otherwise. Our captain was a great host and made the experience special and enjoyable for every minute of the ride. A special memory for our whole family.
Wonderful way to see the city from the water, and learn about through the eyes of an international student who has lived there several years. Enjoyed the comrade ride.
Sebastian and Sissa were delightful and informative. The time flew by. We highly recommend Hey Captain.
