FREETOUR.com says

Our Secret Traveller applauds this tour as "the ultimate way to experience Copenhagen’s special atmosphere". "Starting in the historic area around the parliament’s canals, we soon ventured to the wonderful freetown of Christiania to learn how the area was created and get fascinating insight to the unique culture here. This story is a truly intriguing and interesting one, and it is delivered exceptionally well by the local guide. It's the perfect way to experience Christiania, appreciate the origins of the movement, get cool pics as well as hearing about local history, architecture and seeing where one of the most memorable events in Danish history took place".

Overview

The Christianshavn Tour is our most popular alternative tour, beginning at Højbro Plads and exploring the island of Christianshavn, which was built as a separate city from Copenhagen.

It is now a great neighborhood with an eclectic mix of residents. The tour ends just outside the gates of Christiania, where you can wander at your own will.

Our tours are free to join, we kindly ask that you tip the tour guide directly at the end of the tour based on what you think the tour is worth! Our tour guides also have credit card readers, giving you a more convenient and safe way to pay your tour guide directly.

Please note that this tour is created for individual travelers and small groups. Guests traveling in groups of 6 or more are welcome to book a private tour.
