“We did enjoy our tour with Alessandro very much! We walked from 11am until 2pm (3 hours) around the quarter Vesterbro and to Christianshavn. We also visited the free republic "Christiana" and had a look inside the small village. We walked everything, we also had good weather, no metro card was needed. We learned many things about the neighborhoods and the residents, it was very comprehensive and we could ask many questions. Only flaw: It was a bit expensive in my opinion, as no food or drink was offered, but I had expected some kind of "food tour", too bad. Nevertheless, we were very satisfied.”
