Description

At Hey Captain we do Social Sailing, where you meet new people and explore Copenhagen harbor. We started as friends on a boat and this is the atmosphere we want to deliver to our guests. It's a talk and a dialogue more than your standard classical tour. The Captain’s Favorite is for you who wants to explore all of Copenhagen in its full glory. We explore the development of the harbor by journeying through areas that has been built by creating artificial islands over the last many decades. We do a brief stop at the fortress on Trekroner Island where history mix with the future, when we explore the historic fortress and see the first land reclamation of Lynetteholmen - the future island of Copenhagen. We then continue to Nordhavn where you experience firsthand the modern part of Copenhagen and how urbanization is transforming the industrial harbor into the recreational oasis that has made Copenhagen so famous. In the end we finish off with the picturesque canals of the old city centre.

The best canal tour

Small intimate and social. Thanks Elmer for connecting us with Copenhagen and with each other. It was very cool ! By far the best canal tour of Copenhagen we have done. Even though the weather was changeable.

Excellent tour

We had a brilliant tour with Captain Steve. We saw many sides of Copenhagen we would never have found with lots of interesting information. Our guide was really friendly and interesting and made sure our group all got to know each other. Excellent trip!

Phenomenal experience - Highly recommended!

Phenomenal canal tour with our Captain, Manus. My husband and I did the one hour tour (although I think it ended up slightly longer due to us and the rest of the group chatting through the duration😆). It was a lovely small group (12 total), everyone was really friendly, the Captain was super informative and shared interesting facts and incites on the city, good energy throughout and an all around great experience. We would highly recommend Hey Captain if you’re looking to do a canal cruise in Copenhagen, a much nicer experience than some of the larger boats you might see on the water.

Fantastic cozy ride!

It was the nicest ride I've ever been on. Everyone in the company was overly satisfied with the captain who fits his stories so well into our conversations. The tour itself was very well adapted and there was always something to look at and talk about. 5 stars from here

Amazing tour and tour guide!

OMGosh, what a delightful experience!! We didn't know what to expect and found the small group of 10 boat tour so endearing. During the 3-hour adventure, we enjoyed meeting the other guests and learning about them and where they came from. Our guide Judy was absolutely amazing and really made the trip entertaining and engaging. We HIGHLY recommend it!
