100% the best city tour I have ever been on. Mike is a fantastic guide around his city, cruising through lanes and alleyways that you would never know were even there. He gives a fascinating and personal insight into Danish history and culture, with great humour and warmth. We loved every minute.

Mike is a fantastic guide, he is very eccentric and very amusing. Negative reviewers must be very uptight or not have a European sense of humour. See all the sights in a short space of time and he recommended some other gems that the tour couldn't visit (markets etc).

A gentleman named Mike leads these tours. At times he was funny, but most of the time he was just downright rude to people.
At one time I had camera on and he stopped what he was saying and told me not to video him? What the? This is a tour and I was a traveler.
I was standing at the back of the group videoing the surrounds and then turned to him. I was at least 7 metres away from him and he said he doesn't like cameras in his face. I was just shocked.
There was also an older couple that couldn't keep up as well, and he just left them behind saying that "they will catch up". It would have taken only a few minutes for us to wait for them.
Yes, he is a different character and at times funny and many people say he is eccentric, but leaving basic human decency at the door does not make you eccentric, just rude.
It was a good tour, but his combative behaviour just ruined the whole experience for myself!response / report this review -

No one seemed to walk away unsatisfied by Mike's eccentric your style which was basically "shut up and listen, ride fast and keep alert". Worth every cent if you want a proper introduction to the Danish mindset.

I have been on a few city bike tours: Berlin, Paris, London, even my own city Dublin. They were all excellent but Mike’s was by far the best! Do it as soon as you arrive in Copenhagen, as Mike will not only show you around the city and teach you how to negotiate its beautifully designed cycling infrastructure like a native, but he will also fire up your imagination about Denmark: this is a tour of a city, a country, a people, a past, a present and a future. Do not arrive early, as Mike will brush you off rudely: but understand he is in resting mode. When the tour starts Mike switches on and gives all of himself, to give you a witty, warm, informative and moving three hours of cycling through Copenhagen. After the tour and after lunch in one of the places Mike recommends (I hooked up with a couple on the tour with me and we had a lovely smorgasbord lunch in restaurant recommended by Mike) you will be ready to explore this gorgeous city on your own, with a bit of extra perspective. Thanks Mike!

This was one of the greatest experiences of my life. Mike leads a great tour. He's informative, smart, wise, and very, very funny. I laughed for three hours straight, and yet learned an enormous amount about Copenhagen but, most of all, the spirit of Denmark: love of life, love of equality and work/life balance. I wish my college-age children could have been here for this because Mike has so much to teach them about how to bike forward in their lives.

Mike is friendly, knowledgeable and hilarious. Definitely worth a tour if you're visiting Copenhagen.

Not friendly at all at first sight, it went better as we sweep through the city with many stories and tales about the Danish people. In the end, very interesting the definitely recommended.

It's a bike ride so you're sure to have plenty of Pokéstops and Pokémon on your way, might miss the sights if you're just playing Pokémon though!
A very nice tour with a great guide. Definitely a good introduction to Copenhagen!response / report this review -

Was a great way to see Copenhagen and Mike was really engaging and knowledgeable about Copenhagen. None of the cycling was too difficult and Copenhagen is very cyclist friendly (if you didn't know already!).
