Prices

The classic Copenhagen tour (9 a.m. to app. 12.30 p.m.) costs $ 100 per adult (half price for children under 15 years of age).



We may include other people than you or your family, but no more than a total of 8-10 people will join a tour as we like to keep things personal and friendly. Please state if you want a private tour for your party only.



We do have a minimum of 4 adults or $ 400 for a tour. Guarantee your tour by signing up 4 adults (or agreeing to the price of $ 400) – if more people sign up before the day of the tour, you will of course only pay per person.



The added afternoon tours vary in price depending on your preferences, number of museums included, etc. Enquire via email.


We can only do tours for one cruiseship at a time, so act now before someone else books us!

Our Tours


Copenhagen is a city for bikes and pedestrians. Especially in the old inner city dating from the Middle Ages, driving is difficult. The best way to experience the atmosphere and sights of Copenhagen is by walking. As long as you wear comfortable shoes most able bodied persons will have no problem (predominantly flat terrain without steps) – and there will be plenty opportunity to sit and rest occasionally while taking in the sights.

Copenhagen is a very safe city. It is even common place to leave your sleeping baby in its pram outside on the street while you watch it from the comfort of a coffee shop or restaurant. You can walk around and browse in shops at your leisure, there is no hassle in Copenhagen.
