Do it!! - It was a super simple process to reserve. We had the right amount of people on the tour and helpful to have some liquid courage on deck for us folks who are a little shy when it comes to talking to strangers. The weather was cold, but still great for the tour. I didn't expect we'd go as far out as we did, but we learned so much and would be delighted to get back on the water with this company again!

A wonderful boat trip on the waters of Copenhagen - An absolute wonderful boat trip exploring the waters and canals of Copenhagen. And the idea to get to know all guests on board and the captain much better is great. We had a fantastic three hours with our captain Emil! Kudos to him, he made the tour unforgettable.

Fantastic - Amazing experience! Our guide was fantastic! We did the three hour tour. She took us to an island that has been used as a military defense in the past, gave us local history and current events, and made sure all the people on the boat had a fantastic time! She got to know all of us to point out things that would cater to our interests. Highly recommend!

Not your typical tour - this was such a nice non tourist way to see the city. Our captain was proud of his city, and exceptionally knowledgeable, and personable. The small group of ten was comfortable and friendly. We had a variety of careers and ages on the boar--the conversation was easy and we got to see things that were off the tourist agenda, and more on the "what it's like to be a Dane and live in Copenhagen" agenda--which was interesting. It's a great introduction to the harbor, and the town, I highly recommend it.

Not really what we expected - We had bad luck with the weather: it just rained the hour we had our cruise. Luckily the boat was covered so we didn't get wet. You can be a 'social' cruise. It's nice to know which other nationalities are in the boat with you. It would be nice to discuss the 'Danish' way of life directly with the captain. That's what I thought was meant by 'social' cruise. You don't only listen to comments from a guide, but you can interact and ask questions to the captain. However, talking about 'life changing things' with a 22-year-old captain isn't what we were looking for. Life changing... we were on this trip to work on my sister's bucket list seeing she has a non-curable cancer. So no, we don't want to talk to strangers about life changing things. On top of that: life changing is most of the time not positive: it's when people get sick, die, loose a partner... And the few things our captain did tell us about the city, were very brief. He really didn't have enough knowledge to give this tour. We couldn't see a lot seeing the boat was covered for the rain and we didn't learn a lot seeing the captain-guide didn't have enough knowledge. He was very friendly, as most Danish are, but this tour was a disappointment.
