About the tour

Experience Copenhagen at its most authentic. This 4-hour small group excursion is specifically designed for cruise passengers who prefer the personal touch of a walking tour over a bus window. Your experience begins the moment you step off the ship, as your guide meets you close the cruise port. We combine the city’s iconic "must-see" landmarks with hidden medieval alleys and local secrets, all while teaching you the true meaning of Danish Hygge. By using the city’s efficient public transit, you’ll travel like a local and maximize your time in the historic heart of the capital.
