The go-to free walking tour for CPH!

I did the Grand Tour and had Rikke as our guide. She was very knowledgable and friendly. Absolute bonus that the CPH Free Walking Tours guides offer discounts to their favourite businesses etc. It's great to get locals go-to spots. Will definitely recommend CPH Free Walking Tours to friends and family.

Thank you, Daniel.

We were able to walk the alleys of Copenhagen for much of the afternoon with Daniel. We've learned a lot of interesting things. This concept is super interesting, free and allows to enrich in a good atmosphere.

This is the tour company you want. Local and informative.

This was NOT the private walking tour, but the free open-to-about-20-people tour. TripAdvisor didn't allow me to input that in our tour in there. Still, I want to give it high marks. It was an informative, extensive tour of the core city, with a solid history, current events, and even a short Danish language lesson. Rikki was friendly and knowledgeable, with a loud voice and superb English for us Americans. Drink, food, World War II, the status of Danish royals, and many recommendations for eating and museums. Highly recommend.
