We had the chance to have Laura as our guide. Not only did she know a whole lot about the city and interesting anecdotes, she is also very friendly and full of humour and gave us a lot of tips (especially for the foodies). The tour in itself was very interesting and focused on Christian Havn, even though it is important to know that you won't be going into Christiania with the guide (no tour actually does). The free tour are my favorite option when I visit a city, as it is budge friendly and you can give anything at the end.

We had the pleasure of having Jarod take us on our city tour. Even though it was wet and dreary, Jarod made the tour entertaining with plenty of dad jokes, while telling us the historical significance of the sites we visited. Jarod gave us plenty of local knowledge on where to eat and what to see during our stay. One of the best tours we have done in Europe and a must do when in Copenhagen.

I was in Copenhagen for two days and went in tours in both of them. The first with Penny, to get to know the city, which was great singe she had the best funny commente to; and the second with Daniel to meet Christianshaven which was awesome because he had the best energy to guide us there. Thank you for the great time we had there!
