A Danish anthropologist and global adventurer. I provide you with a customized, personal and memorable experience in Denmark, where I am born and raised. Being a local with a long overseas experience (25 years in Asia, America and Africa) has given me the capacity to have a good feel for what makes Europe, Denmark and Copenhagen exiting for a visitor. I live in the central Østerbro neighbourhood of Copenhagen. Whenever I have some free time, I enjoy riding bicycle or hiking in the beautiful nature surrounding Copenhagen and to explore natural, cultural and historical places. I divide my time between being a tour leader to Asian countries, giving lectures about China, Taiwan, Cambodia and Vietnam and being a ToursByLocals guide in Copenhagen plus a few other things. I am very open to customizing tours to suit your specific interests. My aim is to give you a unique, personal and memorable experience of Copenhagen, Zealand, Southern Sweden or beyond and that each tour will be different. You can either book one of my published tours or send me a message and let me know what your interests are and I will customize a private tour matching your needs. We can go by private car, public transportation, bicycle or foot. We can explore nature or places of cultural and historical interest. Or maybe you are interested in seeing how the local people live? If you choose to go by car I will be your driver as well as I am licensed with a professional drivers license.

Overview of your Copenhagen tour

My aim is to give you a unique, personal, and memorable experience and that each tour will be different. Please contact me and we will design a tour together also taking into account opening hours at destinations. In the itinerary below I have chosen some places to visit, sites that I have been familiar with since my childhood. Places that I continue to revisit and can highly recommend. The price for this tour is based on 7 hours and up to 6 people. If you would like a tour of more than seven hours duration or less than six hours duration I can customize a tour and send you a link. If seven hours is what you prefer you just need to make a booking here and I will prepare an itinerary based on your interests. I am flexible and it could also be a tour over several days including western Denmark and Sweden if you wish so. (customized tour).

Great guide

Henrik was an excellent guide! He was genuinely interested in making sure we did everything we wanted to do and was very accommodating. He’s a wonderful conversationalist who has many great stories and is very welcoming and friendly. He has extensive knowledge about the landmarks, history, city, etc. We would definitely recommend him to anyone who wants to tour Copenhagen with a true local.

Henrik tailored the tour to us. He is very knowledgeable and he shared a wealth of information with us. He made the tour very enjoyable. We highly recommend him. The sights were excellent as well and the views, spectacular.

Tour was great!  We had a lot of very good conversations and Henrik took us inside a special place only he could access as one of one hundred living members — the Adventurers Club. Very cool.  The King visits this venue occasionally.  Also Henrik spent many years in China (speaks Mandarin), so my wife had an especially great time as she speaks Mandarin.  Love Copenhagen.

Henrik couldn’t have been improved upon. We loved every minute. He figured out what we enjoy most, which was beautiful small villages and seaside vistas. Learning about his life was fascinating and we enjoyed that also. What an accomplished person. Thank you, Connie and Cindi

We ordered a customized tour for two people as we wanted to see sights outside of what was easily accessed by public transportation such as the Metro. Henrik did an outstanding job of addressing our wishes; we went to see unique sights that a lot of average tourists would not see and also sights desired by many - all within a reasonable schedule. Over a six hour span, Henrik effortlessly provided a tour that was customized to our needs. We saw the ski hill and climbing facility built specially around an incinerator, "Copenhill" and saw some awesome sights from the top, as well as the village of Dragor on the eastern part of Denmark, as well as two more commonly seen sights as the Little Mermaid statue at Langelinie park, and the Viking ship museum in Roskilde - items definitely having a vehicle was useful for.
