Copenhagen sights - Fantastic day out. Saw some amazing sights and Thomas was an excellent tour guide - very knowledgeable. Was a bit rushed at times, only because Thomas wanted us to see as much as possible and with clear explanations
Would certainly recommend it. Not religious but the cathedral was impressive

Perfect Castle Tour - Everything was perfectly organized smooth transport, great timing, and a well-planned itinerary. Our guide, Silas, was fantastic. He knew every little detail about the castles and their history. You could tell he was passionate about what he does, which made the experience even better. Huge thanks to Silas and the team for such a memorable experience

Family Friendly History Highlights - This is a full day of activities. Our kids (10 and 12) really enjoyed our enthusiastic guide, Sillas. Two locations the tour is guided, and two are on your own. Bring a book for the trip out and back. We felt that we learned a lot about Danish history along the way. This is a great way to explore with kids (not spending too much time in any place, but seeing a lot of sites). Highlight- Roskilde Cathedral.

Well worth it - This is a great tour that allows you to see many sites in one day. Sillas was an excellent guide with great communication skills. If I could change one thing, I would add a little more time (perhaps an additional 30 minutes) to see Frederiksborg Castle. It was the highlight for us.

Wonderful overview of key landmarks with fabulous guide - Wonderful tour to places more difficult to reach from Copenhagen. Thomas provided superb commentary- keeping the day interesting and amusing. Safe driver. Excellent overview, helps you to plan select areas to pursue in more detail if desired. Lots of walking, wear comfortable shoes.
