Let me share with you my passion for a good story, Danish history at its best and everything worth knowing about Danes, happiness and our renowned "hygge". I am an Authorised Guide graduated from Roskilde University and work as a full-time guide. I have lived in Copenhagen for most of my life but also lived in England for a long time allowing me to view Denmark both with the eyes of an insider and an outsider. I enjoy making history come to life. I may put the huge Danish Empire of the past back on the map, sometimes the Vikings come out complete with war paint, tattoos and dragon ships, or I may give my guests a real sense of the life of the Danish Royal family as it unfolded itself at the numerous royal palaces and castles. Whilst walking, cycling or driving around the back streets of medieval Copenhagen I enjoy creating a picture that appeals to the imagination and the senses of my guests; images that bring to life the carriages rattling over the cobbled streets, the hustle and bustle of city life and the distinctive character and smells of the old city. But what about Danes today? You might think that, being amongst the happiest people on the planet, Danes are walking around with a permanent grin on their faces. Well, no they are not but I will make sure that, by the end of our tour, you will know exactly what makes Danes so happy. In Copenhagen the absolute majority use bicycles and public transport to get around so naturally most of my tours are on foot or bicycles. Should you prefer to travel by car I will arrange for a car with a professional driver to take us around the city or further afield to visit the royal castles North of Copenhagen or Roskilde with its cathedral and Viking Ship Museum. Some Swedes think that Danes are untrustworthy anarchists. True or false? We could nip over to Sweden to re-visit old Danish territory and learn what the Swedes are like! Should you not quite find what you are looking for in my list of tours just let me know and I will tailor-make a tour just for you.

On this tour we will mix leisurely walks with a drive around the city to make sure you get to see all the top sights and at the same time get a feel for everyday life of the Danes. Vikings, medieval Copenhagen and Royals past and present are just some of the things which will come to life on our tour around the city. Are you curious about the famous Danish concept of "hygge" or about why Danes are so happy? We might touch on that whilst enjoying a late morning snack. Why not be like a Dane and enjoy a coffee and a Danish pastry? I will, of course, make sure that you get plenty of opportunities to take lots of photos to show to your family and friends back home.
These are some of the top sights that I would like to share with you during your stay in Copenhagen: The Little Mermaid The Gefion Fountain Amalienborg Palace Rosenborg Castle The Latin Quarter The Church of our Lady The Tivoli Gardens The City Hall Christiansborg Palace The Old Stock Exchange Nyhavn
