Don’t miss this tour! - Outstanding experience! What a great way to see Denmark treasures outside the city limits. The van was very comfortable, the water provided was a great touch and the tour guide was incredible. He was knowledgeable and provided just the right amount of history without making it feel like a history lesson. I would definitely recommend this tour!

Spectacular tour - Spectacular tour of palaces and cathedral and Viking ship museum outside of Copenhagen. Tour guide was knowledgable, entertaining and kept us on schedule to return to our cruise ship. I would highly recommend this tour if you have an extra day in Copenhagen.

Great Time in Copenhagen - Very enjoyable, great tour guide. Saw the places we wanted to see. The group was small so we could get to many places in the day and have personal conversations with the tour guide.

Excellent tour and tour guide - Our group of four couples went on your one day Grand tour around Copenhagen with Thomas on May 6. It was our first day in Denmark and it was a wonderful introduction to the country. Thomas was an excellent tour guide, extremely knowledgeable and treated us to lots of stories behind the facts. We learned so much from him as he moved us easily from place to place. We would highly recommend Hamlet Tours and Thomas.

A great and sunny day around Copenhagen. - What a day to have a tour. Sun was out and our guide, Silles was very good and excellent in giving us, a family of 13, a historical account of every place we visited. Great insight and information given by Silles. I highly recommend this guide and tour.

A brilliant way to know Copenhagen - Sillas, our tour guide and driver as well, was very enthusiastic and very knowledgeable, very easy to understand. He has raised all the more our interest in the history of Copenhagen. He is easy to approach, very helpful and understanding of a big group like ours. Every questions asked were answered with honest and easy to understand answers. Highly recommended.

Great tour of Denmark - What a wonderful tour! Silas was a fun and engaging tour guide. We got to see so much around Denmark and he was so knowledgeable in everything. The day was cold and rainy but we were highly entertained and he effortlessly shuttled us between sites. What a wonderful way to see things outside Copenhagen! I highly recommend this tour!

Grand Day Trip around Copenhagen not to be missed! - This was our most fun day in Denmark! Our driver/guide Sillas, made the day amazing. He had so many interesting stories and facts that made the day so much richer. The Viking Museum was awesome! Hands on and so full of history. The tour of Kronborg Castle was so interesting and fun. Frederiksborg Castle is an absolute jewel. It is like stepping into a fairy tale. Sillas had so many great stories, some of them personal, which just made Denmark come alive for us. He is an amazing story teller, so professional, kept us on time without rushing us, had an outstanding lunch stop suggestion and just made our last day in Denmark so special. My entire family loved every minute of it. This is a do-no-miss tour.
