In 1700, Copenhagen was bombarded from the sea, and in 1713 some old warship were set aground by the straight and narrow path in the entering to Copenhagen so the city was better protected from the sea. One of the warships was Trekroner.
Trekroner was close to two of Copenhagen's most dramatic events. Firstly, Battle of Copenhagen in 1801 and since the bombardment of Copenhagen in 1807.
In 1801, Trekroner was a serious threat to the British assault force, and therefore Lord Nelson kept the naval force out of reach.
Discover the casemate buildings
Today Trekroner is open to all. Here, you can discover the various exhibition cases in the casemate buildings. You can also watch a film about the Battle of Copenhagen or you can go down to the cold basement with a flashlight and hear stories about the good life in Trekroner.

Great time on the water
Great time and experience touring Copenhagen by boat. Thomas is knowledgeable and showed us the sites. The old fort island was especially great to see as few people were there. Gitzmo is a great companion. My son loved the experience with Gitzmo. Highly recommend.

The funniest cruise on Gitzmo!
We had the most pleasant boat trip at Gitzmo! The captain and his dog are two very lovely hosts with an eye for really good service! In addition, it is a really beautiful and charming tour in the Copenhagen canals, where you can really feel the city’s atmosphere:))

Copenhagen from the water side
A beautiful and warm day in the port of Copenhagen with “Captain” Thomas and his dog Gitzmo, where we got to see Copenhagen from its most beautiful side.
Thanks to Thomas and we can warmly recommend this trip 😊😉

Best possible experience!
Amazing trip with the best possible crew: Captain Thomas and the sweetest co-captain Gitzmo - the most unique little dog we ever met.
Everything was extremely well organized and much better than the over crowded canal cruises.
Do yourself the favor and book a trip here for a unique experience!
Warmesr recommendation to everyone.

Relaxing Cruise.
Thomas was an excellent host. He was informative and relaxed. It was more like taking a ride with a friend. Gitzmo was a fun companion. We would recommend.

Outstanding and unique experience with Gitzmo the Yorkshire terrier
A private boat tour through the canals of Copenhagen is already something special—but this experience took it to another level entirely. Our captain, Gitzmo the Yorkshire Terrier, brought both charm and unexpected authority to the tour, while his human Thomas, ensured everything ran smoothly.
From the moment we set off, the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. Cruising through the canals offered stunning views of the city from a unique perspective, far from the usual crowds.
Gitzmo added a unique twist that you simply won’t find anywhere else, and Thomas complemented it perfectly with his calm and professional guidance.
All in all, this was a fantastic and one-of-a-kind experience. If you’re looking for something memorable, personal, and a little out of the ordinary, this private canal tour is absolutely worth it.

Relaxing and informative...
Relaxing and informative boat ride with super friendly Thomas and Gitzmo! We actually needed to adjust the ride a bit to shorter and he was accommodating about our start time as well. Little adorable Gitzmo, Thomas’ dog, made our tour especially good hopping along to sit on laps and then trotted along with us happily at the fort where we stopped. This tour is probably better for young adults than one of the basic boat tours offered.

Best Private Boat Tour in CPH!
Very easy onboarding in arguably the most quiet and beautiful canal in Copenhagen...you'll get a level of intimacy that you won't find anywhere else and you won't feel like a tourist.
You'll probably make a friend with captain Thomas and his adorable dog Gitzmo.
Great restaurants in the area to keep the intimate vibe going afterwards.
