5.00The tour was brilliant with a very knowledgeable and funny our guide. Gave us the opportunity to see parts of the city that we would never have had time to do, and was a funny, interesting history lesson at the same time. Would recommend to anyone

Arrived at the booking office only to be told this trip had been changed and to come back the next day which was very disappointing It would have been nice to have been informed before arriving at the riverside!!!!!!

5.00This was a fantastic trip! We originally booked our boat trip for the Saturday but due to cancellation, we rebooked for the Sunday (which worked in our favour because the weather was so much better. The trip itself lasted over 90 minutes and in that time, we were guided around Copenhagen’s network of waterways, taking in sight after sight. All the way round, our guide Morten was informative, insightful, entertaining and funny. Big thanks to him and the captain for showing us Copenhagen from the water, and for making this a five star excursion.
Perfect Introduction

5.00A quick yet effective tour jam packed with information for first timer. We went as family with my 15&20yo. They thoroughly enjoyed the scenery and photo opportunities. I also recommend this for young children, easier than having to walk around to explore. Cost wise very economical as well for a family.
Easy fun cruising

5.00Canal tour and harbor was great. We were able to see many sights and were given historical information and fun facts. The boat was covered so we were able to stay dry since it had been raining. It’s unfortunate there was a family onboard that was very loud and spoke over the tour guide and didn’t respect the other passengers as we tried to listen to the tour guide. It was disruptive. It’s too bad the two parents are teaching their children to be rude by their example.

5.00We spent a few days in CPH and not sure why we left this for our last day, but the tour was really informative and the guide - Peter - pointed out all the sites from the water with a great deal of proficiency and, importantly, humor. Made it memorable. We took the slightly longer tour and it was a great value for the money.
