Put me on a boat so I can explore the city while also sitting for an hour or so and I am happy gal. So on my next-to-last day in the city, needing to kill a little time before a museum opened up, and wanting to rest my feet for a spell...I hopped on a Netto boat tour. Also...because I had already done the other boat tour included with the Copenhagen Card. The boats are a little dingier and dirtier than some other tour companies. And they pack the boats full. You may not have much personal space on a busy day. But you get a full circle tour of the city from the water and you get to be on a boat for an hour. So...*shrug* So I stand by the Canal Tours being much better. But I think as long as you get to do a boat tour during your time in town, any one will do.

"Look ma, I'm on a boat!"…read more No, it's not that kinda boat, but it serves its purpose and floating along Copenhagen's canals on a clear, crisp day is really romantic. SIGH. It's so romantic, we decided to kiss every time the boat goes under the bridge. And people! there are MANY bridges on this tour, over 20 in fact, but who's counting? If you're not a romantic, the practical purpose of this tour is to catch your bearings. Whenever I'm somewhere new, I always opt for the best mode of transportation to see the city. And here, it's best seen on the water. You'll pass the famous Little Mermaid, the impressive Opera House, the upscale Christianshavn neighborhood, Vor Freslers Kirke, etc. The tour lasts about 60 minutes and costs 60 Dkk (that's only $10!) and it's the best tour given in Danish and English. Don't go to the DFS company, they charge twice as much for the same exact tour.

We chose the two-hour tour, which felt like the perfect balance, not too short and not too long. While it is a bit more expensive than some of the larger boat tours, the experience is much more intimate. With a smaller group, it was easy to ask the captain questions and have meaningful conversations throughout the journey. One of the highlights was a brief stop at a historic military base, where we learned even more about Copenhagen's fascinating history. Along the way, we admired the city's stunning and unique architecture and, of course, made a stop at The Little Mermaid. Our captain, Aske, was one of the best tour guides we've ever had--friendly, entertaining, knowledgeable, and full of great energy. If you're considering a boat tour in Copenhagen, we highly recommend this one. It was an unforgettable experience, and we learned so much about the city. You won't regret it!

It's really a great way to take in the culture of the city that you're visiting while also familiarizing yourself with the area. We booked the "Grand Tour of Copenhagen" ahead of time to ensure a tour in English for that day. The tour can also be joined last minute depending on availability. The biggest draw is that the actual tour is free. You're just paying the gratuity to your guide at the end of it all. We met our guide at the steps of City Hall. Just look for the guides with bright green umbrellas. I say this because there are other free walking tours that meet up at similar locations within the square. Wayne checked us in and suggested that we take a look around inside City Hall before the start of the tour. It was a great suggestion as we probably wouldn't have seen it otherwise. It was a great introduction! Wayne was very informative throughout the tour. He pointed out things that we wouldn't have noticed right away. We learned about the culture, government, history, and even the language. He taught us all a few basic Danish words to help us with greeting people. He was great! It's a nice short tour that takes up only about 2.5 to 3 hours of your time. The pacing of the walk is perfect. There are cobblestone streets and bike lanes to navigate through, but otherwise it's an easy walk. Our tour ended at Amalienborg Palace. The only thing that would make the tour better is the timing of it. An early morning tour that ends right before the changing of the guard ceremony would be ideal. However, this might not be possible due to the time given after the tour for those with last minute questions or needing recommendations. That's totally understandable. Otherwise, it was time very well spent. Highly recommended!

I've brought a couple others there and they enjoyed it as well, even made new friends on the boat with other patrons, then continued on a bar crawl with them! It's a fun scene on The Tipsy Mermaid.

I did that and unfortunately, it was a massive group of more than 50 for the English tour. This made for a less than ideal environment with too many people, too far from the tour guide and a slow progression through the city. I'm sorry to say that I left the group after the third stop.

Nerdy and fun…read more There is no denying that Segways are seriously nerdy and people riding a Segway look very nerdy indeed. Especially when they are in a group following a tour guide around a city. But the nerdiness is a small price to pay because Segways are amazing fun and such a great way to tour a city. The Segway was invented by Dean Kaman in 1981 and are two wheel, self balancing things that are so much fun. Segways are amazing intuitive and so easy to ride, these things feel magical when you first get out them, like they are defying the laws of nature and doing things they aren't suppose to be doing. After a few minutes a Segway feels so natural, like you've been riding them all your life, and it's easy to forget you are even on one and free to look around and enjoy the views. Unfortunately even though Segways are so simple to ride, some people occasionally end up on their faces. Probably because they panic or violate one of the most important rules of riding a Segway, never let the wheels touch anything. To do so virtually guarantees a face plant. But just pay attention to a few simple rules and Segways are remarkably safe. Segway Tours in Copenhagen is a very friendly and experienced place. They let you get use to the Segway in a parking lot and then a knowledgeable guide takes you out on a tour of the city. Safety is the primary consideration and the guide knows all the local attractions and tries to go on back streets whenever possible to avoid the traffic. They give you a helmet with a headphone in it and the guide describes things as you nerd along on the Segway. The sound quality of the headphones could definitely be improved but it's still possible to make out most of what the guide is saying. Time seems to fly by but you get a good perspective and feel of the city when it's over. Segways are far more intimate than a bus but much quicker than walking, a great compromise. After the tour we even got a free beer, can't beat that. Yeah, Segways look nerdy as hell, but are just so incredibly cool. Segway Tours is a great company that makes sure you experience the weirdness of a Segway while seeing and learning about Copenhagen. And they even make sure you don't get killed while doing it.

Everyone on our tour was quite impressed with his ability to communicate in 5 different languages. I really wish I had gotten his name so that he could get Kudo's. (English: Atta Boy or High Praise). He was very knowledgeable about history, architecture and a little culture. We arrived in time to hop on this boat and to take it all around Copenhagen. Some of the things we got to see was the Little Mermaid, Paper Island, Christiansborg Palace, Gammel Strand, Nyhavn and much more. The little Mermaid has been vandalized a number of times. This year it was painted red by someone. The city had to restore her. The Little Mermaid from Hans Christian Anderson is not as big as you would think. But it is an icon of Denmark. This tour was around an hour. My family and I loved seeing all the sights and having the ability to hop on and off at will was a nice added touch.
