5.00Fantastic walking tour of Copenhagen – perfect for families! We did a walking tour of Copenhagen with Kenneth as a family of four, including two tween kids, and it was excellent from start to finish. Kenneth set a great pace that kept everyone engaged without feeling rushed, and he was very thoughtful about making sure the kids were included and interested. The tour was informative without being overwhelming, with lots of fascinating stories and local insights we wouldn’t have discovered on our own. Kenneth’s good humour really made the experience – he struck the perfect balance between education and entertainment. Our kids stayed engaged the whole time, which says a lot, and we all came away feeling we’d learned a great deal about Copenhagen’s history and culture. Highly recommended for families and anyone wanting a relaxed, engaging, and well-run walking tour
Amazing, knowledgeable and welcoming

5.00Money well spent. Me and my girlfriend met Kenneth today, who was born and raised in Copenhagen. He was so knowledgeable about everything, even the most obscure questions like why Copenhagen has the DKK. He was passionate about doing the tour and went the extra mile honestly couldn’t have had a better experience. The weather on our first day was cold but the welcome was warm. Thanks Kenneth for such an informative tour!!!
Fabulous walking tour of Copenhagen

5.00Oskar was a great guide, dry and witty humour with a great oversight of Danish history, culture and politics. It was a freezing cold day and he kept my sister and I warm by walking and talking and keeping us on the move while taking in the sights. He gave us the name of one of the best places for food- Maven! we would have walked past it as part of a church. There were only three of us on the tour and we felt awful that we had no cash at the end to give him a tip... so instead we are giving him a gold plated five star review ***** You were fabulous Oskar! We all really enjoyed the tour and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this to get an overview of the city, its history, fables, architecture, Royal family opinion ;-) and the most up to the minute politics... and how to pronounce - hygge! which we certainly got from this tour.
Excellent Tour
