Hi, my name is Anders, and I'm a big fan of Copenhagen – the city I call home, where I live with my family. I can’t wait to share that passion with you and show you around this incredible city, which has so much to offer and which I personally love deeply. I have a background as an actor and have lived in Copenhagen for the past 25 years. I know the city's hidden gems and charming crooked streets, and I would love to share them with you. I have in-depth knowledge of Copenhagen — its rich history, its modern life in 2024, and where to find the best spots for delicious food, great entertainment, and the city’s well-kept secrets. Over the years, I’ve built up a huge network and know lots of interesting people around the city — from local artists and chefs to historians and shop owners. I also know where to find the best places to eat, whether you're after traditional Danish cuisine, street food, or something off the beaten path. Life as a guide and as an actor have a lot in common — both are about telling a great story. I love sharing stories and creating a unique and memorable experience for my guests. Storytelling, humor, and adding that little extra something are key elements in all of my tours. I guide my guests on foot, by bike, by bus — or even on a run! Every tour can be fully customized to suit your preferences and needs. Whether you’re visiting Copenhagen for the first time or have been here before, I will always do my very best to tailor a tour that fits exactly what you're looking for. With me as your guide, you’ll get a personal and authentic experience — far from the standard and predictable city tours. Thanks to my wide network, I often get access to places and experiences that most people would never discover on their own. I’m flexible, easy-going, and always happy to adapt — whether you have special interests, time constraints, or just want to go with the flow. So if you’re looking for a unique and personalized tour of Copenhagen, don’t hesitate to get in touch. I’ll make sure to plan an unforgettable experience for you and your group. All my tours are flexible and can be tailored to your wishes. If you have specific requests or sights you'd like to see, just let me know — I’ll do everything I can to make it happen. Looking forward to meeting you! – Official Tourist Guide Diploma from Roskilde University, 2023 (English and Danish) – Cambridge English Exam, Level C (Advanced English) Please note: I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your own vehicle or help arrange a car and driver separately.
