Well organized. We were lucky that every time we got to the bus it was ready to leave. The staff very very nice and helpful. The guide on the boat tour very funny and informative! Everything is wonderful

We love the experience both by bus and by boat! It was important for us to have the first impression of the city and to know where everything is! It's so worth it!!

The best travel guide in all of Denmark. He was so nice, funny and really warm.

This could be done in one day, if you did not hop-off at too many locations.

Very easy service to use - exceptionally friendly and helpful staff.
