Perfect tour - It is an absolutely amazing tour, you can see many places in one day, and they are worth being visited and admired. The guide is very nice with a gentle sense of humor. I recommend this tour and that company! Your visit of Copenhagen will not be perfect without this fascinating excursion

Great history lesson with lots of fun - I would definitely say it's the best day tour I have joined in this trip. Our tour guide, Sillas, was great - he was not only making the atmosphere relaxing and fun but also able to detail us the Danish history. As a tourist without much prior knowledge of the country, I could still remember the information about the Queen Margaret I & II, the King Frederick and the King Christianien. His storytelling was so engaging making the trip unforgettable. I would highly recommend this tour.
