Loved this tour! - My friend and I had a great time on this tour! Fleming was a wonderful, knowledgeable, helpful guide, and we were very lucky to have him. (He's also a very good driver--I usually get carsick but I didn't at all the whole day!) We especially loved the Frederiksborg castle, which is ridiculously opulent. I definitely recommend spending a day on this! It was well worth the price.

Great experience in Copenhagen - Amazing tour!!! Our guide, Sillas, was awesome!! He was informative, friendly, funny and a great host! The rides didn’t seem long with his great history and stories about each location. He suggested a great lunch spot with a discount and we had time to explore on our own so it was well balanced. Would def recommend doing this tour!

Great experience for our family! - Very informative and well-run tour. Fleming shared the backgrounds to the history of many paintings as well as historical details around the kings’ lives. The Viking museum was also really interesting. Thank you for a great day!

A taste of everything for everybody. - Fleming was Ace (A+). Very knowledgeable, very funny and an all round good guy.
The tour is well worth it. One of the best day tours I have been on. Castles to crypts, Cathedrals to Vikings, Royals to Commoners...it had it all!
Everything was a buzz.

Great history tour - Very comfortable mini bus, beautiful country side and a very knowledgeable guide. Definitely bring sun and rain gear! The weather was constantly changing from sunny and almost hot to cold and raining. There’s a fair bit of walking on cobblestones and when they are wet they are slippery. Sillas, our guide and driver was very knowledgeable and good humored. It was fun listening to his stories:

Wonderful day of sights and history - The tour was very interesting and informative, with wonderful sights at each stop. The bus ride was quite comfortable, and our guide Sillas did a wonderful job of providing us with great information without overwhelming us the whole time. He really helped make the trip very enjoyable.
