Great moderator and good overview. If you can, sit on the left (most landmarks). There is a transparent roof/windows, in case it's cold/rainy. Comfy seats 😁

Nice canal tour. Good way to see Copenhagen from a different angle. We boarded about 15 minutes before and left excellent on time. Wish it was a bit longer in the canals rather than open sea portion.

The tour took in a lot of the sights along the canals and the guide told us lots of the history but she was really funny so it didn’t get boring. I was worried it would be cold but the boat had a glass roof so not cold inside and still had a good view. Overall it was really good and I would recommend to people of all ages.

What an awesome quick tour! We got a great view of the canals and learned a lot about Denmark. This tour is only an hour long but is packed with lots of sight seeing. You can sit inside the boat and open the window.

This was a nice break from walking all day. Nice sights seen along the canal. Downside was we could not hear the guide, we sat on the back of the boat and the motor was louder than he was. Besides that it was an enjoyable hour!

Great way to see the city and areas that you may not see otherwise. Very knowledgeable guide with a lot of good information about current and historical events. This city feels a little like Amsterdam or Venice with all the canals.
