At Hey Captain we do Social Sailing, where you meet new people and explore Copenhagen harbor. We started as friends on a boat and this is the atmosphere we want to deliver to our guests. It's a talk and a dialogue more than your standard classical tour.

The Captain’s Favorite is for you who wants to explore all of Copenhagen in its full glory. We explore the development of the harbor by journeying through areas that has been built by creating artificial islands over the last many decades. We do a brief stop at the fortress on Trekroner Island where history mix with the future, when we explore the historic fortress and see the first land reclamation of Lynetteholmen - the future island of Copenhagen. We then continue to Nordhavn where you experience firsthand the modern part of Copenhagen and how urbanization is transforming the industrial harbor into the recreational oasis that has made Copenhagen so famous. In the end we finish off with the picturesque canals of the old city centre.

Our guides made us feel like we were out on a friend's boat for the afternoon while still giving us plenty of historical and cultural information about Copenhagen. Conversation was definitely part of the experiences. The districts that we cruised through helped us gain a better understanding of how the old and new blend in the city.
Gorgeous views of this beautiful city!

Wonderful experience on the hidden gems boat tour. Our guide Magnus provided a different perspective of Copenhagen as we travelled through the canals and harbour. We learned about the history and development of the harbour and surrounding housing expansion. Very interesting and informative experience.
