It was a nice tour to get an overview of Kopenhagen and it's fun to see the city from the water. Most of the information came via headphones not the tour guide himself. However, you can choose the language you prefer. Would recommend it.

(Translated by Google) An excellent 1-hour guided sightseeing tour. The small boat also navigates smaller canals, which are inaccessible to larger boats. It can be hot during the day. It's best to book the tour in the late afternoon. Reservations are not required. Tickets can be purchased on site. Departures are every half hour. (Original) Отличная обзорная экскурсия с гидом длительностью 1 час Маленькая лодка проезжает в том числе и по маленьким каналам, что недоступно для больших лодок Днём может быть жарко. Лучше брать тур ближе к вечеру Бронь необязательна. Билеты можно приобрести на месте. Отправление каждые пол часа
