I'm Philip D., your private tour guide in Copenhagen

Guide #18110

Many years ago I came to Denmark from England because I was curious to find out why Danes were "The Happiest Nation on Earth". I am delighted to say that I found out and am willing to share this with you! Having fallen in love with Copenhagen, Denmark (and a Dane) I became fascinated by Danish history and culture; a passion which led me to become educated as a tour guide. With a background in the music business in London and later as a psychotherapist I am well qualified to listening and my guiding is always based around the interests and requirements of my guests. I am not an academic, there are other guides who are; if you want a tour filled with detail of Kings and dates then look elsewhere because what I offer is a viewpoint of Denmark and Copenhagen seen from the eye of a very interested Englishman. That said every day I continue to study the story of the Land of the Vikings. My favourite past-time is wandering the streets of Copenhagen looking for unusual routes and sights to show my guests. The buildings may be beautiful but they come alive with a story. Above all my aim is for you (and I) to have a entertaining and fun day whilst I share my love and knowledge of my wonderful adopted homeland. Authorised Danish Tour Guide. Educated at Roskilde University Most of my tours are on foot or bicycle.. Some of the cruise ship harbour out of the city and require transportation

    We had a wonderful tour! Philip adapted the tour for our group which included my grown son with autism and two young grandchildren. The tour was pleasantly paced. We got to see things which we never would have found in our own and learned a great deal about the city, it's history and culture. I would highly recommend Philip to any small group visiting Copenhagen.

    An outstanding tour experience from start to finish. Philip is deeply knowledgeable about Copenhagen's history and brought the city's major sites to life with real depth and context. What distinguished him from other guides we’ve used in the past was his willingness to go beyond the itinerary. Over tea, he engaged us in thoughtful conversation about Danish politics,...

    Thank you so much for the kind words. I had a very enjoyable few hours with you all. The generous tip was much appreciated - I bought a lovely rugby shirt which will look fine in Italy! Wishing you all a great summer and thank you for the recommendation. Best wishes Philip
