Why I recommend private tours

Private tours solve the biggest problems I hear travelers mention all the time: feeling rushed, feeling lost in a crowd, or spending time on stops they don’t care about.

With a private tour, you get:

Flexibility – we can slow down, speed up, or change plans as we go
Full attention – you can ask questions anytime and get real answers, not a rehearsed speech
Comfort – it’s relaxed, easy, and never overcrowded
A tour that fits you – food, history, local life, architecture… we focus on what you’re into

For example, maybe you want to see Nyhavn, but you also want a great bakery stop for proper Danish pastries. No worries, we do that—no stress, no “we don’t have time,” no keeping up with 25 other people.

What makes a private guided tour feel different

The best part is how much more connected you feel to the city. You’re not just checking off sights—you’re actually learning, noticing small details, and experiencing places in a more local way. At Tours In Copenhagen you always get a local Danish Dane from Denmark as your guide. And s/he has time for you.

And because it’s private, you can also do those little things that make a day special: a quick detour, a hidden courtyard, a great photo spot, or a stop somewhere you’d never find on your own.

Best for couples and small groups

If you’re traveling as a couple, or with friends/family, this is honestly one of the nicest ways to explore. It feels more intimate, more calm, and more “your day” instead of “a tour day. And you have a common experience to talk about afterwards.

A few tips for our private tours

To get the most out of it:

Tell us what you like (food? history? cozy streets? design? local stories?) and what you would like to experience
Ask questions during the tour — I love when people are curious and our tours are not monologues from a script. Quit the contrary.
Be open to small detours — they’re often the highlight
Wear comfortable shoes (Copenhagen is a walking city)

Private tours In Copenhagen

At Tours In Copenhagen, I put a lot of care into making tours feel personal and easy for you, but I need your input. Whether you want the classic Copenhagen highlights, hidden gems, or even trips beyond the city, I’ll help shape the experience around you.

Ready to explore Copenhagen in a more personal way? I’d love to show you around.

A private guided tour with us is the complete opposite of an app or a big open group tour, hence the prices are higher. But the memories and experiences are so much better, trust us.

If you want a tour that feels relaxed, local, and designed for you, a private tour is the way to go.
