Private City Tours & Shore Excursions

Yes, it was expensive to hire a private guide for 3 cities (Copenhagen, Gdansk and Stockholm. But, I would do it again! Each of our guides was warm, knowledgeable, flexible and happy to share about their culture and city. We ate tradition lunches and shared stories as well as seeing and learning about soo… many things. There is no comparison between the ship’s excursions and this. Thank you, Nordic! Our trip was everything I’d hoped.

We didn’t book in advance, unfortunately, and there were cruise ships in Copenhagen when I contacted Nordic Experience. They worked very hard to put together a tour with a driver and knowledgeable guide that worked for us. Excellent experience all around.

We booked a private tour so we could see Copenhagen before boarding the Baltic Sea Cruise. We were picked up at the airport and dropped off at the cruise ship – so easy. It was worth every penny. We saw all the major sites and learned so much history of Copenhagen. Our guide, Benedicta, was amazing. We will definitely use Estonian Experience again if the need arises!

Our flight arrived in Copenhagen early in the morning and we couldn’t check into our AirBNB until 3pm. Our travel party consisted of 2 seniors, 2 children, and 2 adults. We were worried about what to do with our luggage and ourselves until we could get to our AirBNB. Thankfully we discovered Estonian Experience and booked a private tour with them. A driver and a guide picked us up at the airport, stored our luggage in the vehicle for the day, took us on a 5 hour private tour of Copenhagen, and dropped us off at our AirBNB. The service of our tour guide, Ian, and driver were amazing. Ian was so helpful and showed us all of the beautiful things that Copenhagen has to offer. He gave us advice as to what we could do on other days while we were visiting this city. He even helped unload our luggage and carried it into our AirBNB at the end of the day. This experience helped make the start of our vacation relaxing and enjoyable. Even the booking process was wonderful. Triin was quick to reply to all of my emails to help plan this amazing tour. I highly recommend Estonian Experience for future tours.

We are a family of 9 (age range 75 to 9 years old) and were on a Baltic cruise and spent the day with Eva-Maria in Tallinn on a private tour. She was an awesome guide. Her enthusiasm for her city is infectious. She turned what we thought to be a throw-away port of call to one of the funner stops on our cruise. She was easy to work with and highly responsive prior to docking in Tallinn so arranging the excursion was a breeze….don’t let the cruise line lock you into their terrible excursions with WAY too many people on the excursion! Get personalized service from companies like Eva-Maria’s! 
She arranged a very nice bus for all of us so it was super comfortable. We have a child in a fold up wheelchair and she accommodated us perfectly. Mobility is a slight challenge in the old town (as in a lot of old European cities with a lot of cobblestone streets) but it was quite manageable for us.
We spent the day touring the old town, both upper and lower and then went to the Viking Village. This tour struck a good balance between the adults and the kids. The older folks appreciated the history and architecture of the old city and the kids had fun at the Viking Village, throwing axes and launching the catapult. The food served at the Viking Village was actually really good and the atmosphere of an old style Viking lodge was really fun. 
We liked Eva-Maria so much, we decided to use her company to arrange excursions in Helsinki, Stockholm and Copenhagen and they were all excellent (I will add reviews in those cities). 
I would highly recommend this company to arrange your excursions!

We had a wonderful day in Copenhagen! Sophie was an excellent guide, both knowledgeable and personable. We love this beautiful city and hope someday to spend more time on a return visit. We would enjoy another Estonian Experience tour (maybe the Castle & Countryside) and would certainly ask for Sophie if she were available.Thank you for making Copenhagen one of the highlights of our trip!
