Unforgettable Copenhagen: Social Canal Tour & Hidden Gems
At Hey Captain we do Social Sailing, where you meet new people and explore Copenhagen harbor. We started as friends on a boat and this is the atmosphere we want to deliver to our guests. It's a talk and a dialogue more than your standard classical tour. The Captain’s Favorite is for you who wants to explore all of Copenhagen in its full glory. We explore the development of the harbor by journeying through areas that has been built by creating artificial islands over the last many decades. We do a brief stop at the fortress on Trekroner Island where history mix with the future, when we explore the historic fortress and see the first land reclamation of Lynetteholmen - the future island of Copenhagen. We then continue to Nordhavn where you experience firsthand the modern part of Copenhagen and how urbanization is transforming the industrial harbor into the recreational oasis that has made Copenhagen so famous. In the end we finish off with the picturesque canals of the old city centre.

We enjoyed our tour with Marcus! The small boat was awesome and we saw a ton and learned so much about Copenhagen and Danish culture. Highly recommend!

Excellent day with Sam who was very informative and took us on an interesting route to see a cross section of Copenhagen.

Matilde was a great guide! And the guys at the Social Sailing van were very helpful- they even helped me charge my phone and give me excellent recommendations of where to have a drink and get dinner.

Lovely 3 hour tour of Canals. Mats was a great guide, very knowledgeable about Copenhagen and Denmark. Rainy but covered boat.

Very knowledgeable and kind guide (Nicolai) who also took us to the fortress during our trip. We all got to know a little about each other and really enjoyed everything about the 2-hour sailing.
