Traveler Reviews

So I was desperately looking for a last minute booking.... Work and life had been crazy until my long awaited birthday break in Copenhagen. and I wanted to make sure my mom, who joined me there, would have a good time as well. I have say the weather was fantastic, and so that may have tinted my glasses a rosy shade BUT I am pretty sure the tour would have been fantastic anyways. For. starters, I wanted to try driving the bike myself, so Andreas jumped in front with my mom. I thought it would be hard but the bike was so comfy and the electric engine was so good that I barely felt the effort...so I kept peddling for the rest of the tour lol. Found it so fun, and Andreas' chosen theme of the Danish Definition of Happiness was a great topic. I have been working in DK fora while and am planning to move there so understanding the history and culture is a massive plus here. On top of all that, Andreas is one of the kindest, patient and personable guy I ever met. We had such a great chat throu

our tour already happend in june 2018, but we still speak about all the interesting things and facts we learnd. Andreas took a lot of time to answer all the questions and get into a discussion about all the diffrent topics he mentiont. Driving with the bikes was first a bit scary but we got used to it very quickly. Sitting and driving through this lovely city was wonderfull. The whole tour was a blast! Don't hesitate to book a tour with Andreas!

We were meant to do this tour our first day in Copenhagen but it was raining which was so disappointing. Thankfully Andreas was so amazing and shuffled things around so that we could do it the next day which we really appreciated. We had the best afternoon and thoroughly enjoyed listening to Andreas talk about the history and culture of Denmark. The bikes were comfortable and blankets are supplied but if you are doing the tour in winter make sure you dress very warm as it does get cold but don't be put off doing the tour, you will love it. We did many great tours during our holiday but this one was the best.

Andreas was a great communicator throughout our planning process and was very flexible with our our plans revolving around the winter weather. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour and time with Andreas. He was informative about the history of Copenhagen as well as the study of happiness. Though it was cold out we were comfortable bundled up and with the blankets, mittens and tea that he provided. We highly recommend this beautiful tour of Copenhagen. This was a highlight of our European winter trip.

This is a must do when in Copenhagen. We were guided by the delightful Eden, who was fantastic and very knowledgeable, explaining all about the bikes, the background to the company, and bringing to life the areas of Copenhagen we visited. Even on a cold day we were kept warm by Eden’s hot tea (which was a massive hit!), the extra gloves and blankets supplied by Loop Tours. Great value too. Well done Loop Tours!
