Good use a quick couple of days in Copenhagen - Ran a tight and efficient schedule, the information presented was astutely pertinent. Enjoyed the ferry experience with the semi-trucks interaction. Highly recommended!

Wonderful experience! - Had a wonderful trip, visiting the two countries. The bus departed from the Central Train Station on time and we had headphones guiding us throughout the whole tour. We went from Copenhagen to Helsingor and visited Hamlet's Castle, along the beautiful Danish riviera. Although the castle is huge and quite impressive, 1h:30 was enough to see it all and not rush through it too much. The entrance to the castle is not included but it's well worth. Alternatively, you can visit the Maritime Museum which is nearby or take a walk in the small port and around the castle. We then took the ferry and crossed the Baltic Sea to Sweden, then visited Lund- the Cathedral and University area and finally Malmo, the center, St Petri Church was nice as well and the 'Twist', then finally we crossed the bridge back to Copenhagen. Our driver and guide George was absolutely great, he pointed out all the needed details in order to offer everyone a nice experience and tailor it to their interests. He was polite, helpful and knowledgeable. Thanks George for a wonderful experience!

Amazing but overpriced tour. - I really enjoyed this tour as it was so diverse but I couldn't help but thing that for 125 Euros you should easily get return tickets from Copenhagen to Elsinore and Copenhagen to Lund. Alternatively car-hire might be a cheaper option particularly for a group.The toll on the bridge is a hefty 25 Euros.

Perfect to visit Sweden in one day - I took this tour last Saturday. As I visited Copenhagen for 4 days and I had already visited the places I wanted to see in Copenhagen , I decide to book this tour and it was a perfect decision I will say . Our Driver come tour Guide Mario was a very knowledgeable person more over very chill person to show us around . We visited Helsingør , Lund and Mamlo. Mario had given us enough time to visit each of the places . He also recommend me fish and chips in Helsingør street food market . As I am from London and fish and chips are our national food I was like we make best fish and chips and then insists me to give a try , sorry I am not betraying my country but that was the best fish I ever had . I was lost in that tast while writing this okay enough we are not talking about fish and chips .

Very interesting as long you don’t have a baby with you. - Once again Beautiful a must see. Great day trip. A massive parking for your car. Excellent. Again we had to drop off our pram. This time they didn’t have their own. So we had to carry our baby for a couple of hours and they would let us bring in our umbrella as it was raining that day.
