“Our guide was friendly, knowledgable, and patient. It took one of us i.e. me, some time to get used to the coaster brakes but the cycling infrastructure is so good, it didn’t cause a problem. Fantastic way of seeing several of Copenhagen’s main attractions whilst gaining some insight into their history and that of the city in general. An excellent introduction to Copenhagen - thank you. Highly recommend.”
