Copenhagen Free Walking Tours

The Free Tour concept allows travelers to join walking tours for free and has gathered fame all over the world with the idea that you can get a fantastic tour that caters to your budget without compromising on quality. Our local guides are some of the most experienced in Copenhagen, and have been working for years to give thousands of visitors a great experience.

Our passion for our work and our city makes us wonderful guides - but only you can keep us doing what we love. We hope to tour for many years to come, and as freelance tour guides we receive no compensation outside of what guests pay at the end of our tours. That’s why we kindly ask that you pay what you consider with respect a fair and honest price for our work.

You can book your spot HERE.

Our tours run regardless of climate conditions* Since it rains 170 days on average in Copenhagen, we invite you to wear comfy shoes, warm clothes, layers and rain gear so you can fully enjoy our walk together!

Please note that 6 or more traveling together in one group need to book a private tour. Our visitors travel from all over the world to have a good time in Copenhagen, and we are well acquainted with the unique challenges of walking as a group in the city. In order to make sure everyone is safe and happy, the guides of Copenhagen Free Walking Tours ask that you abide by a few simple rules on tour. Please be respectful of these rules, and of your tour guide. We promise we’re not killjoys - just experienced in how best to navigate wonderful Copenhagen.

1. Grand Tour of Copenhagen

Copenhagen has a rich history as a major city on the edge of the Baltic. It grew from a little fishing town to the capital of Denmark, and survived fire, plague, invasion and just about everything in between. Nowadays Copenhagen is known as a culture capital, a hub of design and experimentation, a place for foodies and a land of fairy tales. Join our Grand tour to hear how Copenhagen became the fantastic city it is today. Learn about the city's founding father, the best place to get Danish smørrebrød, and why the Danes are called the happiest people in the world!
