4.00I went on the evening kayaking tour with my daughter. It was well organised and the guide was friendly and knowledgeable. We were the only 2 people on the tour that evening and I think it might have been better in a group with a few more people. We enjoyed it though.

5.00Excellent 1-1/2hr private kayak tour with Anders. We are a family of 4 with 2 grown children. We toured Copenhagen harbour and went around Christianshavn Kanal with Kajakhotellet. It was a very nice and unique way to see the city before touring around on foot. The pace was just right with occasional stops during which Anders explained some of the buildings and the local history (and gave us a bit of a rest - :)) Anders was calm and assured and always in control so we felt completely safe even with larger boats around. He was also polite and humorous so we ended the morning with smiles all round. Would definitely recommend.
Very fun!

5.00This was such a fun way to see the city! Our guide was lovely and we just had a blast. The place was a little difficult to find, but if you go down the boardwalk a bit and see a bunch of racks of kayaks, that is the right place.
