5.00Great tour! We went in December and it was cold, but there was a nice covered heated area to sit in. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and was happy to answer additional questions. Our kids (ages 11 and 7) had fun and learned a lot about Copenhagen. Even if your kids weren’t interested in the history, there’s lots to look at and you go under a lot of cool bridges.
Poor quality tour

4.00It was a good tour but I didn’t think there was loads to see. Maybe I’m being harsh! It was just nice to be on a boat and outside mainly
Highly recommend

5.00Lovely and knowledgeable tour guide (I believe her name was Lisa?). Plenty of seating for different groups so everyone was comfortable and nicely spaced. Would definitely recommend to others who are planning a trip to Copenhagen :)
Great cruise

4.00The tour guide was excellent. Enjoyed the trip but would have been great if the windows were clean so we could take photos.
A good welcome, but a not very rewarding walk.

2.00Commitments are kept and the welcome of the on-board staff very pleasant. However, the low position we occupy in the boat gives only a glimpse of the environment; walk not of great interest.
Super boat trip

5.00Great tour on a blustery day, seeing more of Copenhagen from the water that we saw on foot, with a great tour guide.
