Additional Information
At Hey Captain, we embrace Social Sailing, enabling you to connect with others and discover the charm of Copenhagen harbor. Our journey began as a group of friends on a boat, and we’re keen to extend that friendly, relaxed vibe to our guests. Expect engaging conversations and interactions, rather than a conventional guided tour.
Your captain will guide you to our top picks in the harbor during the tour. There’s ample opportunity to raise questions and we encourage you to engage in discussions about life in Copenhagen. Our aim is to immerse you in the city’s vibe rather than bombard you with historical tidbits. The itinerary isn’t strictly fixed, allowing for potential changes based on the group’s preferences and special harbor events. The 2-hour Hidden Gems Tour deviates from the typical canal tour paths in the city center, letting you explore the budding residential areas in the South or North harbor. We are excited to welcome you on board and hope you’ll enjoy our unique Social Sailing experience.

Great small group canal exploration - We loved the way our small group glided past the big boats. Our guide Storm engaged us in conversation not recitation. He answered all of our questions and helped us embrace the culture of Copenhagen.

Modern & historical Copenhagen in 2 hours - This was the best tour we did. It was much more interesting than our previous day’s walking tour- primarily because our captain, Philip, was outstanding- not only in terms of the actual tour but also because of the way he encouraged the 10 of us to talk to each other! We were lucky to have beautiful weather and the perspective of Copenhagen from the water is one that really allowed us to understand the creativity and thoughtful urban planning that is going on in the continued development of the city. If you’re interested in architecture and history, this one’s for you.

Very fun - So much fun. Our captain (Gro) was wonderful. It was really fun to see some areas of Copenhagen that we would not have found on our own. It was also great to have a small group that got to really interact with each other. Would definitely recommend.

Hidden Gems - 2hours - Our Captain Oliver was very knowledgeable and friendly and gave us an in-depth cruise around the canals of Copenhagen. He pointed numerous locations including the Little Mermaid and many Points of Interest! He knew how to handle the boat and the 12 of us had a great time! Highly recommend this cruise!

Lies and Deception - Do not believe that you will be going on a cruise with a small group like they advertise. They stuff you into the tiny boats with up to 15 people. The boat was so overcrowded people were unable to really move at all. Some struggled to take photos because they literally couldn’t move on the boat. It was horrific.
Also, the only beverages they say are for sale on board was water.
This tour is not cheap and the vendor, Hey Captain misrepresents what you will get for their outrageous price.
Do not book this tour unless you want to be stuffed into a boat with tons of people. It was not enjoyable and I would never recommend this vendor, Hey Captain.
