Stromma Canal Tours

"Stromma Canal Tours gives you an opportunity to see Copenhagen from water level. With boarding point at Gammel Strand close to the Danish parliament, you can take an one-hour long route through city centre and see some of the most significant monuments. The route is crossed with low bridges so you have to sit tight, otherwise you'll hit your head. From the Gammel Strand, the ship passes Børsen and continues to a wider canal - Yderhavnen. During the trip you can see a modern bulding of National opera, The ships on Holmen (which is an old battle ship used as museum) and the famous Little Mermaid statue. Then you pass Danish Royal Palace and proceed to Nyhavn, which is a famous street with canal and Christian Andersen used to live here. The last part of the route is cruising through Christiania, seeing an impressive building of the Danish National Library and coming back to Gammel Strand. We definetely enjoyed the cruise and we reccomend to be dressed warmly enough, because the wind at Yderhavnen is sometimes a bit too cold. "

"We always recommend seeing Copenhagen from the water - the harbor, canals, and access to the sea is what put the city on the map. In a way, without experiencing the harbor and canals, you aren't really experiencing Copenhagen. The main reason why we love a canal tour is that it gives you an overview of the entire city in a short period of time - then you can plan what you want to go back to and experience on the ground! It's the perfect way to orient yourself with Copenhagen!"
