Let me show you beautiful Copenhagen! As a tour guide and travel writer, my passion is sharing this fantastic city with travelers from all over the world, hoping they'll fall in love with it as much as I have. Originally from Canada, I spent several years traveling the world working on board cruise ships - I have visited over 60 countries and countless cities, but I chose to make Copenhagen my home. When you see it for yourself, you'll know why! I never tire of exploring Copenhagen and discovering its secrets, and of course enjoying the food! My love of the city shines through in my tours, and my enthusiasm is contagious. Each tour is designed to help you get the most out of your time in Copenhagen by showing you both the most famous sights and the hidden gems, while giving you insight into Danish history and culture. My favourite way to see Copenhagen is on foot, so that we can explore the quaint cobblestone streets, stroll the sprawling gardens and scenic canals, and pop into interesting places to take a peek. The best thing about taking a private tour is that it's created to suit your preferences, so just let me know if you'd like yours to be customized, or if you just have any particular interests. We can always veer off the beaten path, or just take a break in a local café and have a chat about whatever interests you. I'm always happy to answer any questions you may have, and provide recommendations for what to see, do, and eat during the remainder of your stay. I hope you'll join me for a tour so I can share wonderful Copenhagen with you. 10 years as a full-time private tour guide in Copenhagen - Travel writer for Lonely Planet - 8 years travelling the world working with Princess Cruises I am not a driver myself but am happy to arrange a vehicle and driver for the tour for an additional cost, if requested prior to booking.

Overview of your Copenhagen tour

Get the full picture of beautiful Copenhagen by joining me for two days of discovering the famous sights and hidden gems, sharing tales of the city, and enjoying some local food. It's up to you which tour you would like on which day and times are flexible, so we can create an experience that works best for your schedule. On the 3-hour Old Town and Local Market tour, we'll explore the picturesque streets and squares of the oldest parts of the city, including the option to admire the views of Copenhagen from the Round Tower and a visit to the wonderful Torvehallerne Market, where you will be introduced to local products and have the opportunity to purchase local goodies to take home. On the 5-hour Palaces and Harbors tour, we'll explore the elegant Royal Reception Rooms at Christiansborg (the King's working palace), see the lovely Royal residence of Amalienborg, and stroll colorful Nyhavn before heading up the harbor to the Little Mermaid.

Caroline did a wonderful job with our two tours we had with her. She was very patient, she was on time, and she was very knowledgeable about the areas we were going to.

We had a wonderful day. Caroline was very knowledgeable of the history of Copenhagen and made sure we saw everything. She even made sure we had time for local pastries and traditional lunch foods.

Caroline is an excellent tour guide. Although she is a Canadian and has "only" lived in Copenhagen for 10 years she has an encyclopaedic knowledge of Danish history in current facts of her new home. She is very friendly and engaging and always happy to answer any questions or modify the tour to suit you. We had a 3 hr tour of the old town on our first day and 5hrs the next day covering the palaces and harbour and thoroughly enjoyed both. We can 100% recommend Caroline to you.

My family and I had a wonderful time exploring Copenhagen over two days with Caroline walking the city. She had a WEALTH of knowledge and was kind, patient and gives incredible insights. We hit all the major sights, plus some hidden gems and Caroline's expertise is unparalleled - we loved all of her stories about the city, the people and the history. We highly recommend booking Caroline for your Copenhagen sightseeing.

Caroline H. Was the best private tour guide we have ever had. We toured 4 hours, then 7 hours. Always prompt, courteous, prepared. In touring Rosenberg Palace, Christiansborg Palace, & Amalienborg, she showed an impressive knowledge of the smallest detail. A great sense of humor. Keeping us on time. We accepted what she proposed, after some negotiation, and she delivered. We were 4 hours late getting to Copenhagen. She adjusted starting time accordingly. We give her the highest rating!!!!!!!!

Caroline was a great guide. Knowledge on all items, even ones we custom added because of our interest and would not have been in the standard tour. Nice personality. Driver, Marcus, she hired for our driving day was excellent. The car and his attire made us feel link royality when we were dropped off/picked up.
