A Different Way To Experience Copenhagen

Though relatively small, Copenhagen is hugely popular with travellers looking to soak up Denmark’s big-hitting attractions, wander through the city’s canal-side cobbled streets and sample local Nordic cuisine. These handpicked tours and experiences will take you away from the crowds and give you a whole new perspective on the Danish capital.

Nestled on the coastal islands of Zealand and Amager, Copenhagen is world famous for its emerging New Nordic cuisine, fascinating cultural sites and rich Medieval history. Instead of just visiting the main attractions, get right under the skin of the city and sample smørrebrød and Danish apple wine made from hyper-local and seasonal produce on a food tour. Or discover the UNESCO-listed Roskilde Cathedral and learn about the country’s Viking history with a traditional glass of mead in hand. These tours will show you a new side of Denmark’s capital.

2. Copenhagen Canal Tour – Exploring Hidden Gems

Hey Captain was founded by friends on a boat, and this is the atmosphere we want to deliver to our guests. So sit back, relax in our comfortable boats and enjoy a drink as we take you around on a charming experience of the canals. During the tour your captain will show you our favourite sights in the harbour. There is plenty of time to ask questions and we hope you want to engage in a conversation about life in Copenhagen. Our ambition is to give you a sense of the city more than an overload of historical facts.

We will give you a good overview of the main sights in the central city in a relaxed way. The two-hour Hidden Gems Tour will take you off the beaten track from the standard canal tour routes in the inner town, exploring the upcoming residential areas of either the South or North Harbour.
