You Must Take a Tour with Edgar! - Edgar was the best guide and really spent time sharing his experience and knowledge with us on this great trip thru Denmark. This was our first full day in town and Edgar was extremely welcoming and knowledgeable about the sites and the history of Denmark. We enjoyed the day really appreciated the time he took to spend it with us and to help us learn more about the history of this beautiful country.

Wonderful tour of the Castles! - My wife and I had an outstanding tour of the castles with Dinturia's guide. Both the guide and driver were knowledgeable about the history and culture of the Kronborg and Frederiksborg Castles, as well as about Copenhagen and Denmark. They spoke perfect English which was a plus (since we are Americans), and we had a very enjoyable day with them. They also talked about sites that we passed in the city and took us to see the Little Mermaid statue. You will pleased if you take this tour!

very interesting tour - a lot of Danish history as well as Shakespeare history. Lucy our guide was excellent - the Shakespeare history and connection, including the origin of the name and the story of Hamlet itself. Also the Danish history was interesting

To be or not to be - Nice to place too see. Not what I was expecting it had a more modern feel than what I anticipated; however, it was nice to see and learn about the history it is a definite too do in my opinion

Must-See, but left feeling a big let down. - Hamlets castle is certainly beautiful and has many interesting features. However, but it was hard to find my way around the site in English. During my visit, I asked about an interesting throne at the end of the hall that had no sign or explanation to it in the guide. I was told there was additional information on the website for all exhibits. It looks like asking even one question is frowned upon if you don't want to pay a lot of money for a guided tour. The castle appeared to be missing quite a few exhibits pieces that were supposed to be there. I left feeling disappointed with not really “learning” much that I could tell others about. Even with these problems, the castle is still a must-see because it gives a stunning look into history. But its management isn't as good as it is at other castles we've seen. A guided walk might be the best way to make sure everything goes smoothly and keep you from getting lost.

No comment - Elsinore Castle is probably impressive. But we were on a tour from a cruise and didn’t have enough time to do it satisfactorily. We were shown the outside. A metal model. Then allowed 10 minutes to explore. Totally unsatisfactory. Especially as a large part of it was covered by scaffolding. Assuming the history of how it commanded the waters required a trip to the earthworks by us, there was too little time. OK the inside had been stripped bare, but those of us who had visited 100’s of similar fortifications, elsewhere, would have appreciated being able to stand there, and imagine. How do I rate a place I was taken to, yet not allowed in ? I blame the tour company for not allowing sufficient time. Our tour could have been a couple of hours longer, and so much better for it.
