About this activity

Explore Copenhagen on a private tour with your own born-and-raised local host

Skip the crowds and forget the scripted group tours — this private experience feels like exploring Copenhagen with a local friend who truly knows the city. In just two unforgettable hours, you’ll discover both the highlights and hidden corners of the city, from the medieval town to colorful Nyhavn and everything in between.

Your private, born-and-raised host brings Copenhagen to life with stories that blend history, humor, and everyday culture. You’ll see iconic landmarks like the Round Tower and Rosenborg Castle from the outside, as well as quiet courtyards, cobblestone lanes, and secret corners most visitors miss.

Perfect for couples, families, or friends who want a personal and flexible way to experience the city.

At Go Like a Local, we believe travel should be personal, meaningful, and full of moments that stay with you long after the tour ends.
