The tour was informative...

The tour was informative and our guide was enthusiastic. It would have been higher rated but this is not a three hour walking tour. It is a 2 hour tour with an included ticket for a 1 hour canal tour with a very large group by another operator at an insignificant cost relative to the total amount paid. We would not have taken the tour if it had been listed accurately as a 2 hour private walking tour with a large group canal boat ticket included.

Operator response

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re pleased to hear that you found the tour informative and that you enjoyed the enthusiasm of your guide. We would like to clarify a couple of points: during the walking tour, our guide asked the group if they wanted to continue walking longer or if they were satisfied with the route, to make sure everyone was comfortable. In addition, regarding the canal cruise, the tickets provided clearly state that they are for the canal tour portion included in the experience. However, we will consider if the canal tour ticket is still worth offering as it brings more headache than profit. That said, we truly value your input and will continue working on making the description of the tour even clearer so that expectations always align with what we deliver. We hope the combination of the guided walk and the canal cruise still gave you a memorable impression of the city, and we’d be happy to welcome you again on one of our tours in the future. Warm regards, Copenhagen Walking Tour

It is a wonderful place to visit and the canal boat ride was very enjoyable. We ate at an outdoor cafe that served good food and drinks.

We were 4 couples in the...

We were 4 couples in the early sixties interested in culture and history of Copenhagen. The quality of the route choosen by the guide was as poor as explanations given. Best part of the tour was the canal tour which was quite scenic.

Operator response

Dear customer, we apologize for you guys not having the tour you wish you could have had. However, our guide Rob has been living in the city for the last 20 years and the route that was chosen meant to meet your requirements as you were tired and requested to stop for a coffee time to time. Again, Rob has asked us to apologize for the walking tour and wish you a great day.

Best tour we have ever taken

We have taken many tours over the years and this was one of the best. The communication confirming our tour time and pick up location the day before by the company and then by the tour guide was remarkable and reassuring. Our tour guide, Rob, was prompt and had excellent English and was a professional guide who knew his history of Copenhagen and could answer any question. Rob's enthusiasm and pride in his city was evident and contagious as he led us through the city telling us stories of the building and destruction throughout the ages. I don't think there was a building we passed that Rob didn't know some interesting fact about. When you take this tour and have Rob as your guide, wear comfortable shoes and be prepared to receive a tour that exceed far more than what you expect.

Operator response

Thank you very much for your detailed feedback. Rob is a legend person and we are very happy to work with him. We wish you a great day and hope you had a pleasant stay!

Awesome Tour with an Awesome Guide

We had a great time on this tour. It was a perfect combination of history and “official” tour type sights mixed with local knowledge and interesting conversation. But most of all it was just plain fun. Our great guide bonded with my kids and by the end of the tour he was more family friend than tour guide. He even took us on the metro!!! I can’t recommend this tour enough.

Operator response

Oh mister Bil. I really appreciate your time and feedback. I can't thank you enough for the review. Yes, we all had a great time together and for me as a guide is such a pleasure to be able to meet people like you guys - being kind all the time and lovely with me. Thanks again and I wish you all the best Bruno

Walking Tour of Copenhagen

Joaquim was a great guide. We saw all the highlights of Copenhagen. And while a little pricier, a private tour is definitely the way to go.

Excellent!!! It was worth it!!!

We were in Copenhagen for three days! We hired a Brazilian guide who has lived here for a long time where he formed a family. Super nice Cover, didactic, city-knowing, polite, charismatic... Its acquisition was a very important factor so that we could know a bit of the history of this wonderful city!!! We traveled in 5 couples, between family and friends, and the admiration for Bruno was unanimous!!! It was worth it!!! Thank you, Bruno for your attention!
