The perfect way to get started in Aarhus - An excellent intro to Aarhus, the guide is simply a fountain of knowledge about the area, its history and Denmark overall. You will walk by many places, museums, cafés/restaurants and sightseeing spots you will want to explore on your own as well. Highly recommended.

Great tour of Aarhus - Our guide Roberto met us at the cruise port with a group of 10 people. Roberto was a great guide and showed us places around Aarhus that we would never have seen. His knowledge and love of his hometown was outstanding. Thanks for a nice tour of your beautiful city.

Around Aarhuus - Roberto was a very interesting and knowledgeable guide sowing us around the various parts of Aarhus from the Viking era to today's modern museum. Try to avoid Sundays when churches and some museums are closed.

Absolutely recommendable! - The city tour in Aarhus was a real highlight! Our guide Roberto led us through the city with incredible knowledge and enthusiasm, sharing not only the main sights but also many fascinating details and stories you would never discover on your own. I was especially impressed by the guide’s dedication and passion – you can immediately tell that this is someone who truly loves what they do. A big plus were the many insider tips: from hidden places to special viewpoints and unique cultural recommendations – we got to experience Aarhaus from a completely new perspective. I can wholeheartedly recommend this tour to anyone who really wants to experience and understand Aarhaus. Thank you so much for this wonderful experience!

10/10 – A Must for Locals and Visitors Alike - My brother and I are locals, and for long time we have wanted to get to know our town better, so we booked this tour. And boy oh boy we were in for a treat. We went on an adventure and learned so much. Everything from viking village layout that formed the city, to hidden backyards with historical merchant homes, and pullet holes to remind us of a dark past. The guide Roberto is super talented, knowledgeable, friendly and a local, so he also treated us with local stories of his. I definitely recommend this tour to both locals as well as visiting turists. 10/10

This tour made me fall in love with Århus - We were met at the train station by our friendly, motivated and very knowledgeable guide. He gave all his attention and dedication for the next 3 hours to our tour. He went out of his way to give us a good impression of Århus and we got little "treats" in terms of visiting local people whom we got to ask questions, all very friendly and had good English. I would absolutely recommend this tour to everyone, even local Danes. It was so worthwhile.

Good First Impression of Aarhus - We took this tour on a holiday and places were closed, but we still received a good overview of the city. The guide was knowledgeable and answered any questions we had. Great communication prior to the tour.
