Visitor in Copenhagen, do this!
If you do one thing in Copenhagen as a tourist, do this tour. Christian was expecting engaging, amusing, multilingual and exclusive. A highlight of our trip made perfect by him and the tour around the waterways or Copenhagen. I'm a traveller by nature, but this tourist attraction is certainly not a trap.
