This private walking tour of Copenhagen lasts about 90 minutes and covers several key sites in the city while sharing politically incorrect but factual stories. The tour starts at Hojbro Plads, where the guide explains the origins of Copenhagen and introduces important historical figures. After about five minutes, the group moves to Nikolaj Kunsthal, a former church, to learn about the great fires that shaped the city; this stop lasts approximately 15 minutes. The route then passes Stroget, known as the longest pedestrian shopping street in Denmark, before arriving at Copenhagen King’s New Square. Here, the guide discusses the central statue and the surrounding buildings during a 15-minute stop. Next, the tour continues past Magasin Du Nord, one of Denmark’s largest department stores, and points out hotels favored by wealthy visitors. At the Royal Danish Theater, the guide explains the significance of the statues outside. The group then reaches Nyhavn harbor for a 15-minute visit, where stories related to its colorful buildings are shared. Following Nyhavn, the tour includes a 10-minute stop in the embassy area, focusing on World War II history. The final main stop is at Amalienborg Castle, the royal residence, where the group aims to watch the changing of the guard ceremony, held every two hours; if the tour starts at 11 AM, it arrives just in time for the noon ceremony, which lasts about 20 minutes. The tour ends near Frederiks Kirke (Marmorkirken), the marble church, with a walk of about five minutes from the last stop. The tour is private and includes a guide for groups of one to 15 people, with the option to accommodate up to 30 people for an additional charge per person.
