We had a great day with our guide Christel. Such a lovely lady, who speaks perfect English. Because it was early season my husband and I were the only 2 on the tour. We saw loads of the sights and learned much along the way. We particularly enjoyed the cycling session which was a great way of reaching interesting sites outside the central city. Thank you Christel for making our trip to Copenhagen so memorable!

We were happy to have Nadia as a guide, who was absolutely nice and welcoming. A genuine professional that could quickly notice what triggered our interest along the tour and bring up more interesting details to meet our curiosity. It really just felt like walking around with a friend who is truly passionate about Danish culture herself and together enjoying the beautiful places we were seeing. This tour option turned out perfect for the corona time when everything is closed because, even though you cannot enter the castles or the library or anything, there is a person who can describe it to you in a comprehensive and captivating way. Definitely enjoyed this experience.

Voice was clear and easy understandable. Stories were interesting to listen. There were few "checkpoints" that phone missed and we had to start them manually. We also were heading wrong direction when main road was curved and we followed it. We supposed to cross the road and go "straight". That's all on us, let say, but in cases like this app could indicate that you are leaving route after walking 200-300m wrong direction, constantly. That would help when it's cold outside and you don't want to take out your phone from pocket. Just an advice. To conclude with: we were happy with a tour. Tack!
