Fun food and a snapshot of Copenhagen history.

5.00I always do a food tour when I get to a new country and this one did not disappoint. Our guide, Miguel, told us about Copenhagen and Scandinavian history while we were walking to our various stops. The food was great and the pacing was just right. The tour helped me get oriented to the city and Miguel made some recommendations about other places to try during my visit. A very worthwhile experience.

4.00The tour was excellent but did not last 4 hours, missing the trip to the botanical gardens and entrance to the Roundhouse. This was disappointing given the cost of the tour!

5.00Flat walk. Walking on cobblestone sidewalks can be a little unsteady if you have balance issue. But all streets like this. Peter our guide was excellent. Including local history and landmarks descriptions between the food stops.

3.00Very nice walk through Copenhagen. Nice guide. Too bad we didn't visit the botanical garden and didn't have the tasting there. No idea why that was has not been reported to us either. As a result, only 7 instead of 8 tastings. The price we thought was on the high side.
Lovely tour guide and amazing food and drink

5.00Our tour guide Camilla was absolutely charming and delightful. The food was amazing, especially the salted caramel hard candy which was made in front of us from start to finish. Highly recommend this tour!

5.00This was an outstanding tour, highly recommended for first time visitors to Copenhagen who want to get insight into the foods, drinks and history. Our guide was fantastic, I believe her name was Camile (phonetic). She definitely went the extra mile to ensure that everyone on our tour had a great experience. She also took the time to recommend some of the local places to eat that a visitor would likely not be aware of/don't readily appear on the review boards. The range of tastings made available to the group was fantastic. The pace was also perfect....not to fast nor slow. Camile was one of the best tour guides we have ever encountered and we have taken a lot of tours over the years. Highly recommend this tour to any first time visitor to Copenhagen who is interested in trying high quality foods, drinks and snacks. Definitely worth the money and time.

5.00This was a great way to experience some of the traditional Danish dishes, learn about the city and walk a beautiful neighborhood in the process. Do not eat before the tour, you'll be eating plenty along the way. I love doing this when I'm visiting different countries, it's a great way to acclimate.
Wonderful!
