Book this tour to guarantee your spot on this public, TIPS-BASED tour.

Are you a HISTORY BUFF? This tour is probably NOT for you. This tour is for people who are tired of traditional sightseeing and excited by the idea of being pleasantly offended.

Stroll over the beautiful Inner Harbour Bridge and hear stories of all the things that would go in a typical Scandinavian film noir: suicide, shipping magnates and socialism.

And if that doesn’t work up your appetite, then learning about the bougie and budget Copenhagen food scene certainly will! From award-winning dining to street food.

So if you have an appetite for the curious and creative, and you want to learn all about the area of Christiania and its inhabitants (–including a troll!) then this tour will be right up your alley.

Come get the low down on the high hippies and find out what makes this area like no other place in the world!

The tour ends outside of Christiania, where you will be well-equipped to venture in on your own.

Another Fantastic Tour! This was my second tour with the company, and it was just as great as the first. Sebastian was an excellent guide — fun, engaging, and full of interesting insights about Hippies & Christianshavn. I would have happily joined even more tours if I had the time. Highly recommend this one as well
Interesting but far from an essential place to visit.

Interesting to see, but I felt a bit like a peeping tom. Due to the time of year, things seemed to be closed up, or perhaps it was simply too early in the day. A lot seemed a bit sad, but it is not for me to judge another's life choices.
Best ever

A really exciting place in the city. Here, the urban world meets the alternative and everything feels somehow different, but quite positive. In addition to open cannabis plants and a great beer garden, you can meet exciting people here. Only you should not go to the toilet here, unless it goes standing. Conclusion: We will definitely come back here on our next visit to the city.
Informative and entertaining

We had a brilliant tour with lovely Thor. He was very knowledgeable about his home city and we really appreciated his well researched and humorous tales about the beautiful city. We really enjoyed our time with him and it was a joy to end it with a beer and a chat, sat in Freetown Christiania. Thank you!
Wasted my time - do not recommend

They cancelled 20 minutes before, but despite having my mobile number they only tried to contact me on internet based apps. I don't have roaming credit, I don't live in this country, it was a 40 minute walk from where I was staying (with WiFi) so I walked for ages, arrived early as they asked, sat waiting for ages then gave up. An hour later, when I got WiFi, I found messages saying it was cancelled, only 20 minutes before it was due to start. Horrible disappointment. Wasted my afternoon. Do not recommend them.

You have to love it, but there is a very casual Mood. It is a colorful environment, both in terms of attributes and people. It was a relief for us, the terrain is huge, you could easily spend half a day there and then you probably haven't seen everything

This is a good tour for a closer look at a Copenhagen neighborhood. Our guide, Thor, gave an informative and humorous presentation of history and culture. A highlight is the 1970’s commune, still in existence as a commune, sort of. I would recommend their Highlights tour first to gain more context.
