He gave us many valuable insights into the local culture and took us to all the important sites. As per our request, we didn't explore any of them in depth, as we did that on our own later. But thanks to Caio, we were able to choose where to go more efficiently. He's also polite and a very pleasant person. He's Brazilian and speaks Portuguese!He was very good.

Claudio was able to connect the past and the present to give us a fantastic appreciation for Copenhagen - from it's royal past (and present) to how the modern government functions in the daily life of Danes. We saw all the highlights and often avoided other tourists at the same time. That is a wonderful experience. Claudio also engaged our interest in food and beverage by pointing out hot spots and also explaining the vibrant and still growing food scene in the city. Highly recommend - especially if you too love food and cocktails.Past and Present Come Alive

We had a wonderful time with Mia. She gave us a great walking overview of the city and tips for further exploration. Her knowledge of the city and its history were excellent. Then she took us to the communal artist colony Christiana. Her stories were fun and I doubt we would have found it on our own. What a great experience!Terrific Copenhagen Experience

We enjoyed our tour with Grazi a lot. At the beginning she asked us some questions to better understand what we are interested in. She gave us a great overview of the Danish and Scandinavian history which helped us a lot to better understand the city. She had a huge background knowledge of all the sites visited and could answer all our questions. It was very lively and never boring. We were glad that we took the tour on our first day of our 5 days stay. We got so many tipps what to do, see and eat. After the tour Grazi was so kind to send us links to all of her tipps. Besides Grazi took the most amazing pictures of us. So we have perfect memories of all the sites we went. We feel very lucky to have met Grazi. You cannot wish for a better guide!Varied, exiting Copenhagen walking tour

We felt we gained a great understanding of the beautiful city while seeing many of the main spots. As we were looking back at our vacation we felt that this tour was among the top highlights. Hranner is a fantastic guide and you would be lucky to have him take you around.Wonderful tour with Hranner

If you’re lucky enough to get Monica as your guide on the Hidden Gems WithLocals tour, cancel your other plans—this is the real main event. Monica was the perfect blend of knowledgeable, funny, and genuinely passionate about her city. She didn’t just take us to places we never would’ve found on our own—she brought them to life with stories, history, and the kind of insider info you only get from someone who truly knows (and loves) the place. We wandered charming backstreets, stumbled upon tucked-away cafés, quirky shops, hidden courtyards—you name it. Monica had great energy, answered every question with a smile (even the dumb ones—yes, I asked a couple), and somehow made the whole thing feel like exploring a new city with an old friend. If you’re looking for a cookie-cutter tour with 40 people wearing matching headphones—move along. But if you want an experience that feels authentic, personal, and just plain fun, Monica’s your person.Hidden Gems with Monica

If you are looking for an insight into Copenhagen’s history and culture then Claudio is the guide for you. He readily adjusted the tour to accommodate our interests and happily answered all our many questions. He is a storyteller and has a way with words. Some of the places he showed us were off the beaten track and were highlights of the tour. A great tour thanks Claudio! Highly Recommend!

I’ve used with WithLocals before and they were good but after this recent experience, I can’t recommend them. I booked a guide for my son who was flying in from London but he had to cancel due to the large fire at Heathrow. Granted it was within 24-hours (which was 36 hours after I booked) but they were not extenuating circumstances and that both the agency and guide acknowledged. And yet I received the runaround from WithLocals and the guide each willing to forego fees if the other agreed. Despite each agreeing, at the end, WithLocals claimed the guide walked back his agreement to forego. Disappointing

Monica is a delight. I arrived in Copenhagen early and I had many hours to kill so I booked an overview tour and boy did I get the one! We saw so much and she was so full of interesting tidbits about Copenhagen’s history, growth, society and culture. I also learned how easy it was to traverse this beautiful city. If I go back…when I go back I am definitely booking Monica for one of the food tours!Best Lay of the Land

Claudio was an exceptional guide. After sharing our interests, he created a personalised tour that included popular tourist sites with lesser-known local gems. His engaging storytelling brought the history of Denmark and its people to life, making the walk interesting, informative and enjoyable. Beyond the cultural experiences, Claudio also introduced us to the city’s culinary delights, leading us to the best bakeries, coffee shops, and a vibrant food market where we sampled authentic Danish specialties. It was a fantastic introduction to Copenhagen. I would definitely recommend Claudio as a guide! Jane (About local Claudio)

Thanks Caio for an excellent introduction to Copenhagen. We appreciated your friendly approach to a well paced and informative tour showing us key highlights of the inner city. Thanks for teaching us about many things from everyday life, history, politics, infrastructure, tips for our stay in Copenhagen, and your experiences as an immigrant to Denmark. You made sure we were safe (watch out for bike lanes!) and we were grateful for a glimpse into your home neighbourhood and to share a coffee together like friends. Highly recommended 🤩Friendly and knowledgable

My friend Anna and I had several days in Copenhagen. Our tour with Grazi was an absolute top highlight. I would strongly recommend her to anybody who wants to get to know the city well—and have a terrific time doing it. It’s clear that Grazi loves her work. She’s passionate about all the details—the food, the culture, the sights, the history, the architecture. She’s done an incredible amount of learning about Copenhagen, and she easily rattles off details and facts about any and everything you could be curious about. Grazi built a custom tour for me and Anna, based on what we knew of the city already + our interests. We were delighted with the combination of special sights and off-the-beaten path experiences she curated for us. And for every experience, she had stories, history, and depth to share. Not only this, but Grazi is just a warm, open, kind person. She goes above and beyond and takes delight in what she does. I’d book with her again in an instant!Don’t wait: book with Grazi!

Grazi is an exceptional guide with extensive knowledge about Danish culture, history, architecture and all the subtleties. We were a group or architects and engineers wanted to explore local architecture and design - Grazi was super prepared, our tour was customised to our professional interests, we were completely satisfied to say the least. We had an amazing time exploring Copenhagen through various lenses thanks to Gazi. Our expectations were exceeded tremendously, reading the reviews we were expecting a great guide but the experience we got was truly exceptional. We wholeheartedly recommend Grazi for your next visit to Copenhagen, related to architecture or not. We believe either way your tour will be amazing guided by the warmth and enthusiasm of Grazi. More than an amazing guide!

Claudio was friendly, professional, competent and very knowledgeable. He conducted me on a walking tour of Copenhagen and honestly, I did not feel the time pass by at all. He got a great mix of the history of Copenhagen, the important landmarks and what they meant, stories of locations and personalities, and importantly, an expert view of the culinary scene in the city. We finished with a walk through with sampling of food from a food market which was excellent. I recommend Claudio highly. Excellent Guide

She is excellent at reading her group and customizing the tour to fit our interests. She made sure we saw the usual highlights and brought us to places we never would have found ourselves. She is engaging and I imagine that she would be great with any group. She also gave ideas on other things to do while in the area and sent some of her favorites. Oh, and she took beautiful pics of us at sone sights, such a bonus!Loved our tour with Grazi!

We recently took the 3+ hour Copenhagen walking city tour with Caio and recommend him highly. He did a wonderful job of presenting the history of Copenhagen and showing us the various "must see" landmarks and also the "not much published" highlights. Most important however, he gave us a wonderful picture of what life is like to live in Copenhagen. He talked about where people live, how they get around, the typical work schedule, the typical school day and child care. He talked about government programs, people attitude towards the government, taxes, health care, education, social programs, jobs, and housing costs. Our 3+ hours with him flew by and we covered a great deal of ground. Would highly recommend Caio as your personal guide in Copenhagen. A New Friend in a New City
