Explore Copenhagen’s Christianshavn, Christiania, canals, food history, and unusual bridge stories on a funny, tip-based walking tour.

“Perfect day to walk through Copenhagen and Christiania. Our tour guide was very fun and entertaining. He didn't hold back. He was a wealth of information regarding an area that is rich in history and stories. Christiania is going through a huge transition (weed" is no longer sold on Pusher Street), and he provided all the details behind why. Guides aren't allowed in Christiania, but after the tour was over, he took a walk through the area while giving some food and beer recommendations. My only complaint was it was Caribbean night in Nemoland the day we were there. Nothing says Denmark like Caribbean night :) If you like to…”

“Roger was a fantastic tour guide. He was fun, knowledgeable and customized our tour to our preferences. We covered most of Copenhagen in the time spent with him and he was able to give us a great overview of the city. We only had a short amount of time in Denmark but we left feeling like our time on the tour was time well spent! They also gave us a list of place to eat, drink and explore. We highly recommend Politically Incorrect Tours, but specifically Roger!”

★★★★★★★★★★3.6 · 15 reviews · 1h 30m

Explore Christianshavn’s canals, Church of Our Saviour, and Christiania’s edge on a private 90-minute Copenhagen walk.

“Der Guide hatte die 1,5 h Tour schon nach 1 Stunde am Zielort beendet. Wir hatten an den besonderen Orten kaum Zeit um Fotos zu machen weil er immer weiter lief. Dafür hätte es zeitlich doch gereicht! Auf unsere Fragen ging er manchmal nicht so richtig ein. Er tadelte uns weil wir in den 2 Tagen unseres Aufenthaltes in Kopenhagen noch nicht alle Sehenswürdigkeiten gesehen hatten. Das war unnötig! Ansonsten waren wir zufrieden.”

“Grazi was one of the best guides I have ever had with Viator. You could tell she was excited to share this experience and wanted to ensure we get the most out of the tour. She took us to places we would not have seen or experienced without her. We also appreciated that she shared some personal stories that related to Copehagen. This tour definitely showed us not the typical Copenhagen.”

“This is a brilliant way to explore Christiana town, it's basically a mini walking tour with a little story behind it with some puzzles along the way. There's certain areas you can't take photos and you must be respectful to the people that live there. This activity advitises 1hr to 90ish minutes.... we took 3 hours as we kept getting distracted, shopping round the little flea markets and taking everything in! So allow plenty of time to make the most of it, this was the highlight of our weekend in Copenhagen. Highly recommend”
