Hidden Gems we’d never see with out Hey Captain - Hey Captain provided us with the perfect canal tour of Copenhagen. We took the 2-hr tour of hidden gems. The boat held 12 people… much more intimate than the larger canal tours. We loved this. As we pulled away from the dock, the captain had us introduce ourselves. As often happens, we all had connections, even though we were from at least 10 different cities around the world. It made for some fun discussions during breaks and visits to some sites. I should also mention that they have beer, wine and lemonade on board for purchase. The captain took us around the harbor ending up at an old fort and site of German occupation from WWII. The views from the lighthouse were spectacular. We took photos for each other. Then back in the boat, we went through canals where locals lived, seeing dozens of people relaxing on beaches and terraces. So interesting. We saw the little mermaid from the water side, Christianshave and other areas, and many interesting representations of Danish architecture and building reuse/multipurposing. The Captain was very knowledgeable (he’s a local) and answered all our questions. Overall, great tour! Definitely worth the cost and time. Highly recommend Hey Captain.

Lovely canal tour, wonderful guide! - I took the tour solo as my husband was at a conference and really enjoyed the small group setting as it was very friendly and easy to visit with fellow guests. Our tour guide Oliver was great at keeping the conversation flowing while still providing a very insightful and interesting tour. The pace was leisurely and the walk around the old fort was a nice excursion. Would highly recommend and felt like I got a good glimpse at all of Copenhagens main touristy areas that I’ll circle back and visit more in depth during the rest of my stay.

Very pleasant day on the water. - We did the one-hour. This is a very small boat - which was much more desirable than the large boats with 60 people. There were only 9 people on our tour. It was very beautiful and informative. The captain kept it casual and gave us info we wanted- not just a script of the most common info about the city.
